Once upon a time, India is rich in vegetation and agriculture. Now, the current scenario is totally different. Every Indian has been trained to work in different fields. In our day to day life, water has increased its demands in overall world which results in water scarcity. This kind of factors affects the regular plantation fields and home gardening. In this connection, we have proposed a methodology to overcome this problem. In the proposed research, a kit with probes and sensors is developed to measure the moisture and humidity level of plants in order to ensure the required water quantity. A solenoid valve is controlled through automation by pre-setting the values of moisture. If the moisture level goes down below certain value, then the solenoid valve is set to open and the water flows. On keeping the sensors on the top of the soil would not sense the parameters effectively which leads to unreliable results. So, in our suggested 0technique, the sensors are placed just below the soil surface, which is nearby closer to the roots of the plant, for getting the significant outcomes. The humidity sensor measures the humidity present in the air and indicates the probability of rain.
