Abstract
This work presents the development of a smart irrigation system based on monitoring soil
moisture and air temperature. The objective is to reduce water waste and improve crop
productivity by using an Arduino board and low-cost sensors to automate irrigation. The
system delivers water only when needed, based on real-time environmental data. Although
artificial intelligence was not fully integrated, the study explores its potential application in
future versions. Additionally, a farmer awareness component was proposed to promote the
adoption of such technologies. The results show that the system is functional, cost-effective,
and suitable for small and medium-sized farms.
