The growing world population as well as increased awareness of the stress, agriculture places on the atmosphere has put farmers beneath intense pressure. Its value is noting that the farmers have long leveraged the technological breakthroughs and to adapt agricultural practices to ever-changing in times and this era is no exception, significantly with the emergency of fine Agriculture. Advanced commercial enterprise is fully dependent on power to efficiently manage resources so as to cut back the environmental impact, minimize the price and maximize the yield. Farmers are facing the associate degree interconnected to host of challenges and thus, having interest in incorporating the innovative technological solutions. Harnessing technology to alter precision agriculture has emerged to produce farmers with the tools they need to serve a half-hour larger population within the future in a very property approach that's harmonical with nature. The wireless sensor network (WSN) is a technology that has quickly been evolved over the years by enabling the spectrum of applications like industry, military, and agriculture. The LoRa devices have provided the ability to mechanically monitor the crops and the animals, which further provides the profitable knowledge which has been collected manually. During this project we tend to come up with a technology, to form a wireless network and alter the irreversible consequences of poor irrigation management. By dispersing the sensors that are connected to the phones or computers of the farmers will instantly receive the data on soil moisture and temperature, weather and rain, crop growth, and also receive the alerts on fire or theft and will activate irrigation instrumentation. All the data collected can feed into call management tools that helps the farmers to take the correct call at the correct time to get optimized results and will guarantee the property of his farm so high price knowledge are often transmitted over distances of up to fifteen metric linear unit from the sensors whose batteries which is lasting up to 10 years, leading to lower the maintenance and in operation prices beside the larger operational visibility, that successively empowers farmers to build their businesses.
