Abstract

Indonesia is a country mainly the economic development is supported from the agricultural sector. Therefore, maintaining the sustainability of the land and managing the water storage during drought is important. The use of technology has been used over a decade such as to improving the efficiency of the irrigation system. The automated irrigation system is used for collecting, controlling, and predicting the data based on the water, soil, and crop relationship. Various methods have been proposed for made the system to be efficient and able to control the crop properly. Multiple sensors are used to collect data and then being controlled by the micro controller. In an effort to utilize the water storage effectively and maintain the sustainability of agriculture, this paper reviews current research of irrigation system, the enabling technology used, the method of collecting data, and investigates the effectiveness of the irrigation system. The aim of this paper is to provide a summary of the current state of the irrigation system in a decade.
