Abstrak Masalah pada penelitian ini adalah dinas pertanian belum memiliki sistem alat ukur tingkat kelembaban tanah berbasis IoT. Sehingga staf dinas pertanian mengalami kesulitan dalam pengukuran tingkat kelembaban tanah. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode pengumpulan data dengan cara melakukan pendekatan kualitatif. Data-data pada penelitian ini data primer yaitu berupa kata-kata, ataupun perilaku yang diamati melalui observasi, wawancara serta data sekunder yaitu literatur. Perancangan dari alat ukur tingkat kelembaban  tanah menggunakan sensor kelembaban tanah berbasis arduino dibagi menjadi dua bagian, yaitu hasil perancangan perangkat lunak, dan hasil perancangan perangkat keras. Hasil perancangan perangkat lunak meliputi instalasi dan coding.   Kata kunci : kelembaban tanah, Arduino, mikrokontroler   Abstract  The problem in this research is that the agriculture agency does not yet have an IoT-based soil moisture measurement system. So that the agricultural department staff have difficulty in measuring soil moisture levels. This research uses data collection methods by using a qualitative approach. The data in this study are primary data, namely in the form of words, or observed behavior through observation, interviews and secondary data, namely literature. The design of a soil moisture measuring device using an Arduino-based soil moisture sensor is divided into two parts, namely the results of software design and the results of hardware design. The results of software design include installation and coding.   Key words : soil moisture, Arduino, microcontroller

Farmers in Namibia currently operate their irrigation systems manually, and this seems to increase labor and regular attention, especially for large farms. With technological advancements, the use of automated irrigation could allow farmers to manage irrigation based on a certain crops' water requirements. This chapter looks at the design and development of a smart irrigation system using IoT. The conceptual design of the system contains monitoring stations placed across the field, equipped with soil moisture sensors and water pumps to maintain the adequate moisture level in the soil for the particular crop being farmed. The design is implemented using an Arduino microcontroller connected to a soil moisture sensor, a relay to control the water pump, as well as a GSM module to send data to a remote server. The remote server is used to represent data on the level of moisture in the soil to the farmers, based on the readings from the monitoring station.

The introduction and evaluation of a novel sensor design for a soil moisture sensor that can be manufactured on a PCB. The PCB acts as a capacitor, which uses the fringe effect to allow changes in permittivity of its surrounding medium to be identified, and this capacitance is measured via relatively simple charge and discharge times between two voltages through a series resistor. The system is implemented in a low-cost microcontroller, and coupled with being printable on a PCB, has the potential to make a highly cost-effective sensor. A custom Android Bluetooth application was produced to provide communication with and configuration of the sensor.

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.

Nowadays gardening has become a hobby for everyone. Everyone is showing interest in growing their own plants in their houses like terrace farming. So we have decided to do a project which can be useful for everyone even the farmers can be benefitted by our project. In our project we are preparing a greenhouse for cultivating different kinds of crops. Our greenhouse consists of arduino UNO, sensors like (temperature sensor, soil moisture sensor, colour sensor and light sensor), actuators. All these are used in sensing the outside environment and giving signals to arduino so that it sends the signal through GSM module and this GSM module will give us a message alert through our mobile phones like for example if the moisture is less in soil then we will get alert “your moisture has decreased water the plants” so that we can turn on our motor pumps to water. Here we are using thingspeak cloud for coding the arduino through IOT. Our project will also do its watering by itself when the moisture level decreases, this is done by soil moisture sensor. It is very reasonable and complete greenhouse can be constructed under Rs.10,000 which can save lots of money for the farmers. The crop yield will also be very good and this will be useful in increasing the economy of farming.
