emphasizing why tackling this issue is of utmost importance © American Society for Engineering Education, 2021 2021 ASEE Midwest Section ConferenceWith more and more farmlands being used to build industrial infrastructures, production of foodis lower causing supply of food to not meet the demand and eventually raising food prices. In orderto come up with a solution to tackle the food scarcity and increase the production, numerous stepshave been taken. One of the ways could be to come up with an innovative irrigation system thatwill help produce more plants if ideal conditions for plant growth is achieved. Automating theirrigation system will make sure soil moisture, temperature and light

, society, andeconomy, sustainability has emerged and is gathering the attention of developed and developingworld communities. At the 2002 World Summit on Sustainable Development (Johannesburg),world leaders reaffirmed the principles of sustainable development1 adopted at the Earth Summitten years earlier. One outcome was the Millennium Development Goals, an ambitious agenda forreducing poverty and improving lives based on what world leaders agreed upon at theMillennium Summit in September 2000. For each goal one or more targets have been set, mostfor 2015, using 1990 as a benchmark. For example, target 10 of Goal 7 of the MillenniumDevelopment Goals aims to reduce by half the proportion of people without access to safedrinking water by 2015. This
