Irrigation Automation
•Entire plantation on micro-irrigation
•DIS pilot project on 20 acre compact block
•Currently manually activated for fixed hours /day
•Proposed to use feedback system based on sensors like
•Soil moisture sensing•SAP flow (Six spp.: chiku, citrus, guava, grapefruit, litchi, grape)•Leaf temp. sensor
•Possibility of solar cells to provide power for this
![Page 25: Role of ICT](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56814c80550346895db99caf/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Green House Automation
Present Automation :
•Partial control of temperature and humidity by fogging in Natural ventilated Green House.
•Control of temperature and Humidity using fogging and ID Fan operation in Forced Ventilated Green House
•Automation proposed:
•Temp, humidity, sunlight, photoperiod .
•pH, EC etc of nutrient solution
•Water
•Backwash of DIS filters
•Closing/opening of curtains

Maturity indices
•Right stage of maturity at harvest is key to quality and
shelf life of fruits
•Visual shape ,colour, size, chem, parameters, sp. grav. etc
destructive methods being used
•Not precise leading to 25-30 % variability
•Non-destructive reliable sensor based method required
![Page 29: Role of ICT](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56814c80550346895db99caf/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Use of GIS
•Soil mapping
•Plant health
•Nutritional status
•Disease –pest incidence
•Yield estimates
•Bio-mass estimates

Central Control Room•RAI Farm activities of 2000acres scattered on 7500 acre
area with 21 Km circumference
•Five zones and 20 sub-zones ,more than 10 imp crops
•Necessary to set up Central Control Room to monitor the
activity
•CDMA technology along with sensor network to collect
/display data at central place
•Data available to authorized persons through network PCs.
•Possibility of using cheap CMOS image sensors to get
photograph of some plants on line in control room as and
when required
