Mobitech Irrigation Automation

About

We started off as farmers - naanga moonu thalaimurai vivasayam pannitu irukom (we're third-generation farmers) - and built this system because managing irrigation was always a headache. With labor shortage and the kashtam (difficulty) of running to the field at odd hours, I wanted something that just worked from my phone, wherever I am.

Why I Built This

• Sick of aal thattupadu (labor shortage) and unreliable help
• Needed to save water and cut costs
• Wanted to manage everything with a mobile irrigation controller - just one app, no matter the farm size

What You Get

• Water your crops from anywhere - even from another city! You can on pannikiren, off pannikiren (switch it on/off) from your phone
• Set schedules for night watering, so you can finally sleep peacefully
• Cuts out water wastage with smart sensors - waters only when needed, and you can set exact amounts per plant
• Wireless farm irrigation system - no big cable work, no stress about digging up your land

How It Works

• Powered by solar or regular mains
• Central controller (Dcon Ag) + wireless units talk to motors and valves
• App dashboard shows live status, with satellite map view - blue, green, red shows irrigation status at a glance
• Get alerts if power goes out, resumes automatically when power's back

Real Results

• Farmers have saved lakhs per year on labor, and some boosted their yield up to 40%
• Works for 2-acre gardens to 120+ acre estates, and fits drip, sprinkler, or flood systems

Romba nalla irukku pa (It’s really good, honestly), but if you have a very basic setup and don’t want to use your phone at all, maybe it’s not for you. For the rest, especially if you want smart water management for farms, this is the way forward.
