In the agricultural industry, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) can be an important tool to promote economic growth. Using network devices in agriculture has the potential to enhance the production process. One of the key challenges WSN faces is energy efficiency. A model based on the water pipeline method is proposed in order to efficiently utilize sensor nodes in agricultural production and water distribution. A water pipeline serves as an important structure for transporting potable water across a distance for consumption or irrigation. In contrast, the biggest transportation problems of water pipelines are leaks. So, water resources may be lost as a result. These pipes need real-time monitoring to prevent such problems. The wireless sensor network technique, however, is considered one of the best solutions available today for monitoring water pipelines. A detailed analysis of agriculture is provided by the model. Aspects of WSN are discussed and their agricultural use is expounded. Moreover, this paper describes the various types of applicability of existing sensor networks in the field of agriculture, along with some technical perspectives. To achieve the best power consumption and communication for the two types of range, ZigBee wireless protocols are utilized. As such, high-performance information that provides a platform for WSNs to better support agricultural production is also included in our proposed model in order to address the shortcomings of existing WSNs regarding energy efficiency. This paper presents the improvements of the proposed solution compared to other techniques in the context of energy conservation in wireless sensor networks and in the monitoring water-saving process.
在农业领域，无线传感器网络（WSN）可以成为促进经济增长的重要工具。在农业中使用网络设备有可能增强生产过程。WSN 面临的一个关键挑战是能源效率。为了在农业生产和配水过程中有效地利用传感器节点，提出了一种基于水管法的模型。水管是远距离输送饮用水供消费或灌溉的重要结构。相比之下，水管的最大运输问题是泄漏。因此，水资源可能会因此流失。这些管道需要实时监控以防止此类问题。无线传感器网络技术被认为是当今监测水管的最佳解决方案之一。该模型提供了对农业的详细分析。讨论了 WSN 的各个方面，并阐述了它们在农业中的应用。此外，本文描述了现有传感器网络在农业领域的各种适用性类型，以及一些技术观点。为了实现两种范围的最佳功耗和通信，使用了 ZigBee 无线协议。因此，我们提出的模型还包括为 WSN 提供更好支持农业生产的高性能信息，以解决现有 WSN 关于能源效率的缺点。本文在无线传感器网络节能和节水监测过程方面，提出了与其他技术相比，所提出解决方案的改进。
