Industry 4.0 has already arrived in the world and is leaving no stone unturned. It can be quickly summarized into just 4 components being, Cyber- physical systems, IOT, Cloud Computing and Cognitive computing. Current technologies, which uses soil moisture sensor require hard wiring and manual interventions. Other timer technologies irrigate the plants at certain interval without checking the need. In the proposed system, robotics with Artificial Intelligence are integrated with IoT systems to allow the farmer who is available at a different location than the farm to get the necessary updates involving the irrigation process taking place in the field. The system will also drain the excess water. The proposed system would allow better water management, higher yield and reduce the required manpower
