Lack of rains causes irrigation a complex task. For proper irrigation, excess or lack of water level present in the moisture should be monitored. Otherwise this may damage the crop, which in turn results in loss to farmers. The proposed system will give a solution where moisture level will be monitored by a sensor and automatically the motor water pump will be ON and OFF so that sufficient amount of water will be given to the plants. This proposed system has a Microcontroller operated motor pump powered by a solar plate is implemented and sends the status of motor to the farmer. Moisture sensor helps to consume water as per requirement of the field based on moisture content present in the soil. The solar powered auto irrigation system is implemented in Express PCB – for designing circuit, PIC C compiler - for compilation part, Proteus 7 (Embedded C) – for simulation
