AIS (Automatic Irrigation Switch) is an IoT device that allows farmers to remotely operate the irrigation pumps using Decision Support System based on soil moisture condition & availability of electricity, Time Triggers to operate at a predefined time for a defined duration, Missed Call, or Android Application.
What Is AIS?
Why AIS?
What Problems Do We Solve?
Water Demand Estimation
Farmers want to get an estimate of the right quantity and duration for watering the fields and wish to know:
- When to irrigate
- When to irrigate
Pump Operation
The challenges faced are:
- Uncertainty of the time and duration for the availability of electricity to operate the irrigation pumps
- Necessity to visit the farms to operate the pump in unfavorable weather conditions or in odd-timings
- Safety of pump motor from electric hazards during rain or thunder
What Do We Offer To Solve These Problems?
Remote Pump Operation Using Mobile
- SecuFarm mobile application allows the farmers to plan the pump run hours using this tool
- AIS system can be switched ON / OFF by farmer by giving a missed call from the registered mobile number
Pump Operation Based On Availability Of Electricity
- AIS will operate once the electricity is available
- Pump will be operated for pre-defined irrigation time and will automatically be switched off once irrigation time is completed
- An acknowledgement return call or SMS will be sent to the farmer for every event; viz. Pump ON or OFF, Electricity availability
Pump Operation Based On Soil Moisture
- Pump will be triggered ON for a predefined irrigation time by our SecuFarm Decision Support System once the soil moisture level goes down to threshold level
