Abstract Assessment of soil moisture availability and timely declaration of drought are keys for exemplary relief assistance in water stressed regions. Percent available soil moisture (PASM) is one among several drought declaration indices, needs evaluation with respect to individual crop and cropping system, as the amount of water requirement varies with respect to crop and its growth stage. Analysis of yield variability due to PASM was carried out by employing correlation and linear regression analyses based on long term observations in experiments conducted at different dry farming locations of the peninsular India. The range of available soil moisture in order to obtain at least 50 per cent of optimum yield in cereals (maize: 26 and finger millet: 52.9 PASM), pulses (pigeonpea: 37.2 PASM), oilseeds (soybean: 26.8 to 30.5, groundnut: 53.8 to 61.7 PASM) and commercial crops (cotton: 26.3 PASM) was 26 to 61 per cent. Establishment of these regression models helped in timely drought declaration / precise identification of drought hit areas and assuring feasible relief assistance. The outcomes of the study may be used for amending the existing drought norms (0–50; severe, 50–75; mild and 75–100; no drought) for provision of proportionate compensations to the farmers.

Este trabalho teve como objetivo desenvolver um sistema de irrigação inteligente para pequenas hortas. A automação foi montada e verificada no sistema de irrigação da horta didática da Universidade Federal do Ceará em um canteiro de 10 m2, onde foram cultivadas espécies olerícolas. Os dados referentes a umidade do solo foram obtidos por um Arduino através de sensores de umidade resistivos, utilizados no sistema de irrigação, cujo objetivo foi manter a umidade do canteiro. Através do monitoramento constante o sistema foi capaz de armazenar informações de umidade e acionamento da irrigação. Assim, comprovou-se a eficácia, a viabilidade e a aplicabilidade do sistema de controle, pois esse foi capaz de monitorar as variações de umidade do solo, acionando e desacionando a válvula no momento ideal além de armazenar a data, hora e umidade de quando a irrigação foi iniciada e concluída. Palavras-chave: Automação, irrigação de precisão, transferência de tecnologia.  LINO, D.

S.AUTOMATED IRRIGATION WITH ARDUINO DEVELOPMENT PLATFORM IN THE DIDACTIC HORTA OF THE FEDERAL UNIVERSITY OF CEARÁ  2 ABSTRACT The irrigation in small vegetable gardens, for a long time, was made in a simple and manual way, however, nowadays, there are ways to optimize the irrigation process in a way that reduces the water consumption, fulfill the crop needs and better use the time of the worker. This work aims at an intelligent irrigation system for small vegetable gardens. The automation was implemented and verified in the irrigation system of the didactic vegetable garden of the Federal University of Ceará, in a 10 m2 plot, where vegetable species were cultivated. The data concerning soil moisture were gathered using an Arduino platform through resistive humidity sensors, used in the irrigation system, whose objective was to maintain the garden humidity. By constantly monitoring the system was capable of storing moisture data and activating the irrigation system. Thus, the effectiveness, viability and application of the control system was confirmed, since it was able to monitor the soil moisture variations, activating and deactivating a valve when convenient, and also being capable of storing the date, time and humidity of the moment when the irrigation process was started and completed. Keywords: Automation, precision irrigation, technology transfer.

The Indonesian country which is famous for its tropical climate has now experienced a shift in two seasons (dry season and rainy season). This has an impact on cropping and harvesting systems among farmers. In large scale this is very influential considering that farmers in Indonesia are stilldependent on rainfall which results in soil moisture. Some types of plants that are very dependent on soil moisture will greatly require rainfall or water for growth and development. Through this research, researchers tried to make a prototype application for watering plants using ATMEGA328 microcontroller based soil moisture sensor. Development of application systems using the prototype method as a simple method which is the first step and can be developed again for large scale. The working principle of this prototype is simply that when soil moisture reaches a certainthreshold (above 56%) then the system will work by activating the watering system, if it is below 56% the system does not work or in other words soil moisture is considered sufficient for certain plant needs.
