Transforming Irrigation Systems With IoT for Water Conservation and Efficiency

Abstract

Efficient water management is crucial for sustainable agriculture amid climate variability and rising food demand. IoT-enabled irrigation enables precision farming through real-time monitoring, data analytics, and automation. This chapter reviews IoT applications, including system architecture, sensors, communication protocols, and data frameworks. Key sensors, soil moisture, weather, and plant response are discussed alongside low-cost and biodegradable options. AI, machine learning, and digital twins optimize water use, reduce waste, and improve yields. Emerging trends like AIoT, nano-sensors, and community IoT networks support climate-smart, resilient irrigation practices.
