ISSN 2277-5099 | © 2016 Bonfring Abstract--The Internet of Things (IoT) is a system of interrelated computing devices, mechanical and digital machines, objects, animals or people that are provided with unique identifiers and the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-tocomputer interaction. Agriculture plays the important role in INDIAN economy. The most important thing which is needed for the irrigation is water. This proposal discussed about how the water can be efficiently used for agriculture. According to this proposal Real Time Clock(RTC) is used to control the motor in the real time. First the ON time and OFF time of the motor is send from the android application via GPRS modem. Once the ON and OFF timings are reached the controller, the motor continuously starts and stops in that particular time interval in the by using RTC. Temperature and moisture values of the irrigation area are continuously monitored and the values are send to the android application via GPRS modem. If the temperature and moisture values are beyond the certain limit an alert notification will be send to the farmer. If the farmer wish to control the motor remotely it is possible by pressing the ON and OFF button given in the android application.
