MUMBAI, India, Jan. 9 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511117460 A) filed by Dr. Jagatpal; Dr. Swatantra Pratap Singh; Dr. Anjay Singh Bisht; Dr. Avinash Varma; and Dr. Rakesh Kumar, Roorkee, Uttarakhand, on Nov. 26, 2025, for 'a system and a method for iot-based precision agriculture and smart irrigation control.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Jagatpal; Dr. Swatantra Pratap Singh; Dr. Anjay Singh Bisht; Dr. Avinash Varma; and Dr. Rakesh Kumar.
The application for the patent was published on Jan. 9, under issue no. 02/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The current disclosure is a system and method to implement bio-adaptive IoT-based precision agriculture and smart irrigation management using multimodal sensing, predictive modelling, and intelligent micro-zone actuation. This system combines electro-biochemical soil-signature sensors to measure microbial activity, organic-carbon resonance, and micro-ionic excitation, with plant-phenotype optical scanners that measure chlorophyll fluorescence, canopy deformation, and stomatal behaviour. A bio-adaptive irrigation intelligence engine links the data streams to calculate irrigation-decision metrics, including a Plant-Centric Irrigation Necessity Factor (PINF) and Adaptive Root-Zone Hydration Score (ARHS). Predictive water-exchange modelling engine simulates soil-water movement prior to irrigation. A responsive micro-zone irrigation module autonomously and with micro-granularity manages water and nutrient delivery. A federatedlearning edge node continuously adapts the irrigation models locally. A blockchain-secured ledger captures thorough irrigation records for transparency and tamper-proof guarantees. The method deployed enables early detection of plant-host stress, accurate use of water, sustainable management of groundwater, and real-time adaptive irrigation tailored to many agricultural settings."
