MUMBAI, India, Jan. 9 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202541114080 A) filed by Nandha Engineering College, Erode, Tamil Nadu, on Nov. 20, 2025, for 'ai based soil hydration forecasting system with autonomous water budgeting.'

Inventor(s) include D Kiruthika; K Boopanapriya; S Jothi Sri; and L Mounish.

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 AI-Based Soil Hydration Forecasting System with Autonomous Water Budgeting is an intelligent irrigation solution designed to optimize water usage in agriculture. It integrates loT-based soil sensors to measure real-time parameters such as moisture, temperature, and humidity. The collected data is analyzed using an AJ model trained on historical and environmental data to predict future soil hydration levels. Based on these predictions, the autonomous water budgeting module calculates the required water quantity for each irrigation zone. The system then automatically controls solenoid valves and pumps to ensure precise irrigation, A cloud-based dashboard provides real-time monitoring, alerts, and manual control options. This system ensures efficient water utilization, reduces wastage, and promotes sustainable farming practices by enabling data-driven decision-making in irrigation management."
