MUMBAI, India, April 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202621023367 A) filed by Sage University, Indore, Madhya Pradesh, on Feb. 27, for 'system and method for cost-optimized automated irrigation control responsive to soil moisture conditions.'
Inventor(s) include Ms. Sakshi Agrawal; Prof. Dimpal Sahu; Niraj Pali; Ashutosh Pandey; and Akshat Patel.
The application for the patent was published on April 17, under issue no. 16/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A system (102) for cost-optimized automated irrigation control responsive to soil moisture conditions comprises a plurality of electromechanical relays (104) and a hardware processor (108). The hardware processor (108) receives soil moisture measurements from a soil moisture sensor (110) at predetermined intervals and determines an irrigation requirement based on comparison against a threshold value. The hardware processor (108) generates an irrigation control signal and communicates the signal to the plurality of electromechanical relays (104) for energizing irrigation valves (106) to deliver water to agricultural crops. The hardware processor (108) and the plurality of electromechanical relays (104) are mounted on a single printed circuit board (118) supporting multiple irrigation zones through selective component population with unpopulated positions enabling zone configuration options without requiring different printed circuit board designs. The system (102) comprises modular electrical connectors (112) receiving pre-terminated cables through keyed engagement."
