Abstract: Agriculture is the main occupation in India. About 70% population of country earn their living through farming. To save the water and to increase the yield of crop proper method of irrigation must be used. The conventional drip irrigation system is fully controlled and monitored by the farmer. Hence to maintain proper irrigation soil fertility considered to be important factor which affects various parameters such as Ph, temperature, moisture and humidity. pH of the soil is impor-tant factor to be considered as it affects the nutrient availability in the soil. Temperature and humidity are also important factor in irrigation system which affects fertility of soil. Automatic Drip Irrigation is a valuable tool for accurate soil moisture control in highly specialized greenhouse vegetable production. Along with water the other important resources to the crop are the nutrients. If the nutrients are available in the right amount for the growth of crops then the yield of the crops also increases. Thus the productivity can be raised with the proper management of water resources and nutrients.
