Abstract: There are currently available a number of sciences that make it possible to develop a SMART irrigation system that can operate without human intervention. This paper identifies these sciences and describes how they fit together to reach the SMART result. This integration of disciplines is somewhat unique as the scientific community tends to concentrate on an ever greater understanding of their specific disciplines. The SMART controller will integrate these disciplines to produce a significant improvement in crop production and resource management.
