scholarly journals Design and Development of Efficient Water Management for Agriculture using IoT and Fuzzy Logic

Agriculture is a major source of living in India. The productive growth of the crop depends mainly on various sources such as adequate supply of water, fertilizers and soil conditions. Excessive water in the farming field may damage the crop and similarly limited supply of water results for causing diseases in crops. Therefore the proper management of water is required for better yield of the crops. In this paper, a system was designed and developed for efficient water management in agriculture field. This work utilized the advantages of Internet of Things (IoT) and Fuzzy logic. The proposed work reduces the burden on the farmers and increases GDP of Indian economy.

There is currently an era of Internet of Things in the computer systems, which consists in connecting all possible devices to the Internet in order to provide them with new functionalities and thus { to improve the user's life standard. One of such solutions could be Smart Home. The possibility of monitoring inner environment is required for such solutions. Such monitoring provides potential for e.g. better heating control. The authors of this paper propose some heating control method with Fuzzy Logic. The proposed method was tested in a special climate chamber. The authors provided conclusions at the end of the paper.

Shifts in the disruptive innovations and the growing impact of consumer cleantech are best understood by looking at megatrends in water management. Trends are global long-term forces of development that impact society, economy, environment, culture, and personal lives. Trends are continuously changing the dynamic landscape in which companies operate. This chapter examined commercial opportunities for the internet of things in the market of cleantech with respect to water treatment. The chapter theoretically looked at the four clusters of water management as relates to the application of internet of things: metering, piping, reclamation, and agricultural clusters. An analysis of market strategies and competitive strategies is conducted leading to a brief development of innovation frontiers in water management.

Indian economy post-COVID 19 pandemic may witness a massive reengineering of all its economic activities. Some will cherish the change, while others will perish over time. The post-pandemic scenario will have a drastic impact across industries and sectors regardless of their scale or size. The magnitude of impact on SMEs and entrepreneurship is unfathomable considering the prevailing intensity of the crisis. SMEs should come up with plausible innovation and talented human force to sustain in the market. The enterprises should develop and nourish ‘talent culture' and should focus on ‘talent', which remains the most neglected component in Indian SMEs until today. Hence, adopting an exploratory approach with a systematic literature review, the chapter focuses on positioning the importance of talent management and its components in the SME framework to manage the post-pandemic crisis. In the process, the chapter deliberates on the key strategies for rearing SMEs through proper management of critical talent and human resources.
