Abstract

Water is the main limiting factor of our life and any human activity. In all our life activities including agriculture and industry, water has a vital role in these previous sectors. This reflects the importance of water especially under many global challenges (mainly climate changes, global explosion of population, soil degradation, desertification and hunger). The using of water in irrigation is very common practice in agriculture because no agriculture without water. The management of irrigation water has become one of the urgent needs nowadays under the terrible progress of the bioinformatic technology. The smart irrigation is considered one of the most common applications in smart or precision agriculture. The main components of smart irrigation system may include soil, weather and plant sensors such as soil moisture sensor controllers, evapotranspiration controllers, and rain sensors. This work is an attempt to answer one question about the smart irrigation whether it is important strategy to overcome the global water crisis or not. This is also a call by Environment, Biodiversity and Soil Security (EBSS) for receiving articles on smart irrigation, different applications of smart irrigation in smart agriculture, their challenges, their obstacles and the novel solutions in this concern. This topic has several open questions needs to be answered.
