Irrigatıon in Agriculture and Automation Based Irrigation Systems (Mini-Review)

Abstract

With the technological developments, modern agricultural applications and the effects of these applications in daily life are increasing day by day. Automation-based smart systems, which have replaced old-style fixed irrigation systems created for only a specific purpose, have brought along remote-controllable agricultural productions in line with agricultural product needs. Automation-based smart irrigation systems have brought significant gains to the agricultural sector. The most important of these gains are time, cost, and labor savings. This study tried to summarize the research on smart (automatic) irrigation systems in the last seven years and emphasize the necessity and advantages of automatic irrigation systems.
