چکیده
Cost effective solar power can be the answer for all our energy needs. Solar powered smart irrigation systems are the answer to the Indian farmer. This system consists of solar powered water pump along with an automatic water flow control using a moisture sensor. It is the proposed solution for the present energy crisis for the Indian farmers. This system conserves electricity by reducing the usage of grid power and conserves water by reducing water losses.

On the feasibility of solar-powered irrigation
Solar-powered agricultural irrigation is an attractive application of renewable energy. However, to be practical it must be both technically and economically feasible. Here, a method is presented for calculating the feasibility of photovoltaic-powered (PVP) irrigation. The feasibility is expressed as a function of location, which includes climate data, aquifer depth and cost, including local po...
متن کاملSolar Powered Automatic Drip Irrigation System (SPADIS) using Wireless Sensor Network Technology
The farmers working in the farmlands are dependent on the rains, river, pond and bore wells. Even if the farm land has a water-pump, most of the time it is being kept stand-still due to non-availability of grid power in the remote areas where the potential of sun light availability is tremendous throughout the year. Increase in agricultural production depends to a large extent on the availabili...
