Abstract

Agriculture is the fundamental area of human society in which research and development has still a wide scope. Water is an important parameter in agricultural practices. In the limited water how to increase the irrigation area with out compromising the productivity is the important area of research in agriculture. Context aware computing means sensing the context and other input channels, taking smart decisions and feedback tracking from the context. Agriculture is a very rich context aware domain. Context aware solution in agriculture is the next step of the precision agriculture.

Wireless sensor network [WSN] is the promising technology for instrumentation and control. The sink is the major node in WSN and can be implemented in smart phone [2]. The integration of WSN and cellular networks generate the many useful application. Here, we have suggested the model in which the mobile phone based sink controls the water irrigation using simple pyramid based context aware model.
