Abstract: ABSTRACT System and Method for IoT-Enabled Smart Irrigation and Crop Health monitoring system and method for machine learning bases The present disclosure relates to a system and method for root zone responsive verified irrigation and crop-health monitoring. The system consists of multi-depth root-zone sensors, crop- response acquisition module, weather sensors, pressure and flow sensors, controllable irrigation outlets, pump, valves and a processor. The processor causes an outlet to provide a diagnostic water pulse; and determines wetting-front arrival, moisture propagation, retention, conductivity variation, and drainage at multiple depths. The measured response is compared with a zone-specific fingerprint of the root-zone response. A stress attribution module differentiates between water-responsive crop stress and non-water-responsive stress. A hydraulic integrity module identifies leakage, blockage, valve malfunction and sensor inconsistency. The sensor reliability, stress attribution, root zone demand, hydraulic integrity and rainfall uncertainty are combined to provide a control-confidence value. The control-confidence value determines the release, modification, postponement or avoidance of irrigation. Post-delivery measurements confirm water availability in the root zone Change pump, valve, pressure, flow, outlet or pulse control parameters for efficiency in resource use.
