SOLAR WATER PUMP

Abstract

Solar Water Pump is a tool that makes it easier for farmers, gardeners and consumers to water plants. It is suitable for use in large agricultural areas and small crops or shrubs such as vegetable or fruit farms. The problem that farmers and gardeners often face is that they feel tired when they have to go back and forth to fetch water from their water source or reservoir.If they are old, they might experience joint and body pain while for the simple they do not have time to water their plants. Thus, the objective of this study is to design a tree watering device using solar energy and build an IOT system on a plant watering device. This project will serve as automatic water watering that uses solar energy and farmers do not have to use a lot of energy. The scope of use is not only for farmers, but it can also be used by people who have an interest in planting in their backyard. In addition, the research methodology is based on a mobile system that is IOT (Internet of Things) on the environmental detector sensor. Thus the watering of the crop will occur automatically if in a hot environment. The findings of the study found that this system helps farmers, gardeners or consumers in terms of cost, time and energy. The results of data collection from survey studies using ‘google form’ are also obtained from the results of respondents. This tool can be improved by placing a ground humidity sensor. Therefore, it can water the plants when there is less soil moisture.
