MATLAB Implementation of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) in Precision Agriculture in Rural India

The use of wireless sensor networks is essential to implementation of information and control technologies in application areas such as precision agriculture. Recent advances in communications technology and wireless sensor networks made new trends to emerge in agriculture sector. One such new trend is Precision Agriculture. In this paper we focus on Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) in Monitoring water level in the farm area for Precision Agriculture. Our algorithm which picks up the information for water level and it is implemented using MATLAB. Precision farming ensures quicker response times to adverse climatic conditions, better quality control of the produce and yet a lower labor cost. Emerging wireless technologies with low power needs and low data rate capabilities, which perfectly suites precision agriculture, have been developed . we propose to implement this type water level in the form. We process real picture in MATLAB in vineyard at village Pindhurli, tahesil sinnar, district nasik, maharashtra, India.
