Abstract	Irrigation is the practice of watering farmland to prepare it for agriculture, enabling the cultivation of crops and the maintenance of landscapes in areas with limited rainfall. This project focuses on the efficient use of groundwater, preventing wastage and overflow on farmland, through an IoT-based system utilizing moisture sensors connected to a microcontroller. The ESP8266 microcontroller is employed for its efficient performance and integrated Wi-Fi capabilities. The system leverages the Modbus RTU protocol to monitor wide areas of farmland, enabling reliable and scalable communication between devices. Moisture sensor data is transmitted to the cloud via a GSM module for remote monitoring and analysis. This system reduces the risk of low crop yields due to water shortages and supports automated irrigation, facilitating the analysis of different crop water consumption and soil characteristics.
