In PLC based irrigation system using renewable energy source, we are basically controlling the percentage of moisture in soil using Programmable Logic Controller. The soil moisture sensors are work as feedback element and according to signal PLC takes action so that the over watering and under watering of water is controlled and this result in optimization of water. Thus helps for good crop production as we are controlling proper amount of water required for their healthy growth. In this system we have used valves to turn ON or OFF. Which are easily automated by using PLC. For this we have programmed the PLC to distribute available water to the crop if soil is dry and plant need the water to cultivate maximum crop production with use of available natural resources.
