Abstract
Abstract
This present study aimed to design and apply an automated irrigation system powered by solar panels for melon farming cultivation. It related to precision agriculture practices from which benefited as an environmental friendly approach. This study was performed by designing irrigation systems, constructing solar panels as a power source for generating pump used to irrigate melon orchard. The results showed that those combinations setup were benefited to reduce manual irrigation system which is normally conducted by human efforts. Further, it also acted as an environmental friendly practice since the system is attempted to utilize solar energy as main power source for irrigation pump. Based on obtained results, it may conclude that abundance energy in our earth can be used for precision agriculture practices with the aim to reduce environmental pollution and waste.
