| 520 | |a Agriculture is the fundamental of the existence of the human being because it granted the evolution of humanity. It is among the essential activities that ensure the development of the human being. So, it is capital to ensure the good work and the efficiency of agricultural production. Thus, the research is focused on the domain of agriculture automation in order to increase efficiently the agriculture production yield with less water consumption and less risk in Africa, particularly in Senegal. Where agriculture delays to reach food self-sufficiency because of rudimentary materials. The farmers are using hilar, plough and hoe for doing their daily tasks, the watering can are still used for watering a large area of crops and it is done randomly. In addition, the use of chemical pesticide is done manually using a manual sprayer which causes huge risks of diseases to the farmers and also destroys the field and even the crops. This thesis describes an approach of automated farming by the use of a Sprayer Robot based on Arduino. Besides, the Sprayer Robot the thesis presents also an automated irrigation system based on the Senegalese climatic parameters and soil textures through the use of CROPWAT and CLIMWAT. The automated irrigation system is done with a programmable logic controller which is the master controller of the overall system including the Sprayer Robot. Moreover, a SCADA graphical interface is also implemented for the monitoring of the whole system. The project, tested in simulation with the CROPWAT and CLIMWAT data, could give no reduction yield if applied and also reduced risk of diseases due to chemicals. | ||
