This invention relates to a wireless sensor network-based system for optimizing irrigation through prescriptive farming. The system includes a network of wireless sensors for collecting data on soil moisture, weather conditions, and other environmental factors, and a central server for processing and analyzing the data to provide recommendations for irrigation levels based on the current and forecasted conditions. A crop growth model is used to optimize irrigation and reduce water usage. The system allows for real-time monitoring and control of irrigation, leading to improved crop yields and reduced water usage. This technology has potential applications in precision farming, smart irrigation systems, and sustainable agriculture.
