Abstract
In the present world, the application of remote monitoring can be found everywhere. Actually it reduces the human labor and enhances the field where it is applied. In recent days, the agriculture system is so advanced and fast that it requires the automatic system for the control over the agriculture field. Watering the farming land is one of the most important operations in the agriculture. Manual operation for watering may cause a wrong measurement of amount of water supply. So, to supply the water in a correct and prescribed amount regarding to how much water is available in the soil, the automation is required. The system described in this paper is incorporated with the ability of determining the amount of water in soil and depending upon the amount it will supply water into the farming land if it down to the lower limit and stop the supply when it crosses its highest limit as predefined by preset value. The system can be operated both in automatic and manual mode so that the super control can be obtained from this system to the farmers. Through the system, the watering of the farming land can be controlled from a remote place without going to the site
