Demonstrating communications and control systems for smart irrigation

2017 IST-Africa Week Conference (IST-Africa), 2017
This paper demonstrates functionalities of a smart irrigation system using low-cost communications and control systems. In the proposed system, field information is collected by various sensors and is consequently exchanged, using Zigbee and the GSM (Global System for Mobile) communication, between the microcontroller, the farmers and a remote server ...

Issues on Communal Irrigation Systems in the Philippines

2019
Despite massive efforts and funding to support irrigation development, the increase in irrigated areas has been minimal in the Philippines, particularly in Mindanao. To expand the irrigation base, new irrigable areas may be served by small-scale systems, such as the communal irrigation systems (CIS).

Information and communication technologies for irrigation management

2007
Nowadays, water resource management is more and more important. Modern agriculture is a large-scale water consumer, which must adjust as well as possible its consumption in adequacy with its needs, while preserving the natural resources and the quality of the productions. Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) offer solutions to make possible
