Resumo

A disponibilidade de recursos hídricos para a agricultura é uma preocupação crescente do planeta. As novas tecnologias de automação e as comunicações oferecem um conjunto de soluções para a coleta e análise de informação que permite a tomada de decisões em sistemas de irrigação agrícola modernos. Têm sido dados passos importantes na automação de sistemas de irrigação, focados na determinação das necessidades adequadas de água nas culturas, o que afeta positivamente a poupança de fontes de energia e recursos hídricos, bem como o aumento da produtividade. No presente trabalho, é proposto um sistema de controle e supervisão em tempo real, o que permite a operação e o monitoramento remoto de máquinas de irrigação de pivô central. Para isso, são utilizados um autômato programável e tecnologia de comunicação sem fio, de acordo com os requisitos e características associadas ao contexto de aplicação agrícola.
