Smart drip irrigation systems represent the next step in uniting traditional farming wisdom with modern technological innovation. By integrating sensors, IoT, and data analytics, these systems allow precise control of water and nutrient delivery based on real-time crop and soil conditions. This fusion of ancient irrigation knowledge and smart technology enhances resource efficiency, reduces labor, and optimizes crop productivity. The paper examines how smart drip systems contribute to sustainable agriculture, particularly in water-stressed regions, and discusses future prospects for automation, renewable energy integration, and AI-driven decision support in irrigation management.
