Original Abstract

Currently, there are several commercially produced solar-powered irrigation systems that allow irrigation to be used even in the areas and applications where piped water supply is not available. However, these are mostly systems that are only basic and do not allow for further improvements. This contribution describes the design and manufacture of a custom solarpowered irrigation system that includes, for example, a liquid fertilizer reservoir for better plant growth or a moisture meter that prevents waterlogging of individual crops as well as protection against self-destruction. This system reflects not only the needs of the operator, but also the needs of the plants and, thanks to the use of a solar module; it is one of the most environmentally friendly sources of energy.
