The agricultural sector, like the technologies used in it, is enormous. In many areas of India, multi-crop farming is practiced. The area occupied by each crop on any field where multi-crop agriculture is practiced changes throughout the year due to the changing seasons. The supply of water for irrigation in a place like India is also erratic due to the changing seasons. In a situation like this, where climatic conditions affect agricultural irrigation, a smart irrigation system that minimizes water consumption while also trying to eliminate irrigation labour, particularly in a multi-crop field with no fixed area for specific crops throughout the year, is currently required. Wireless sensor technology and management tools can help agriculture become more efficient and environmentally friendly. The goal of this research paper is to use KNN Algorithm and IOT to combat this issue.
