Drip Irrigation Automation Unit

1.How it works?

Khodefarm Automation connects all your farm equipment — motor, valves, sensors, and fertigation unit — into one smart, digital system. It works automatically and intelligently, ensuring your farm runs efficiently even when you’re away.

When you set your irrigation or fertigation schedule on the mobile app, the motor controller starts the water pump automatically at the right time. It monitors electricity voltage, ampere, and power conditions every minute. If there’s any problem like dry run, high power consumption, or low voltage, the motor safely turns off and sends an alert to your phone.

The valve controller then distributes water to each farm zone as per the schedule. It opens and closes valves automatically and confirms their real position through the feedback system — ensuring water actually flows to the right place.

Next, the sensors measure water levels, pressure, and motor performance in real time. This data is sent to the cloud every minute, where it is safely stored for lifetime access. The system learns from this data and optimizes irrigation patterns.

If there’s a power cut, it auto-resumes operations when power is back. You can also manually override motors or valves anytime. Everything is visible and controllable through your mobile app or computer.

In short — you decide the plan, and Khodefarm Automation does the work. It saves time, water, electricity, and labor — giving farmers peace of mind and higher productivity.
