Abstract:This paper introduces a solar-powered smart drip irrigation and fertilizer management sys tem designed to make farming more intelligent and resource-efficient. The system employs IOT-enabled soil and nutrient sensors that continuously assess field conditions, while a microcontroller regulates water and fertilizer flow with high precision. Powered by renewable solar energy, the setup operates indepen dently of the grid, ensuring sustainability in rural and off-grid areas. Sensor data and system performance will visualized through a realtime loT dashboard, enabling remote supervision and decision-making. The proposed model significantly reduces water and nutrient waste, minimizes manual labor, and enhances crop productivity, establishing a step forward toward self-sustaining smart agriculture.
