Agriculture is a vital food source for a growing human population. Robots are smart machines and can be applied in various fields such as manufacturing, diligence, production lines, agriculture and health. Nevertheless, they are at their best when undertaking tasks that humans may find physically challenging due to limitations of resources like time and money, skills or disabilities or sometimes the necessity of working in extreme conditions. This therefore allows for fast acquisition of water content values as well as humidity and temperature levels in the soil such that farmers can make informed decisions on water application (irrigation). Such integration results in efficient and informed decision-making processes towards agricultural as well as environmental spheres respectively. Leveraging cutting-edge technology, this ground-breaking solution is aimed at enhancing the accuracy, usefulness and sustainability of soil management practices. The system also integrates a smart irrigation system where the farmer can initiate irrigation by just clicking their smartphone once the moisture content goes below a given level. This combination with modern communication devices demonstrates how easy it is to operate and use the system. Furthermore, to improve the surveillance ability of an agricultural operation an ESP32-CAM module allows for live monitoring on mobile screens.
