The automation provided by microcontrollers revolutionizes agricultural practices,
such as irrigation control. Allowing the sensing of an environment, through the collection of
temperature and humidity factors. That is, this capacity, combined with instant decision
making through actuators, highlights the advantages of these systems, from energy efficiency
in irrigation to the reduction of waste of water resources, contributing to more sustainable and
technologically advanced agricultural practices. In this sense, the objective of this work is to
develop a prototype of an irrigation system with automation based on an Arduino
microcontroller for vegetable cultivation. The present work developed the prototype, as well
as functionality tests in collecting temperature and humidity data.
