Abstract

Indonesia agricultural sector relies heavily on efficient irrigation systems to support food security, yet most existing irrigation systems still rely on manual methods, which can lead to unequal water distribution and operational inefficiencies. This research aims to analyze the application of sluice gates digitalization as a solution to improve water management efficiency of Serinjing Main Canal in Siman Irrigation Area, East Java. Siman Irrigation Area covers an area of 23,060 hectares spread across Jombang, Kediri and Malang Regencies where the sluice gates in this area still manually operated. Sluice gate digitalization is the process of modernizing sluice gate by using automation technology and real-time monitoring. Sluice gate digitization can improve supervision and control of water distribution, leading to more transparent and coordinated management. This research involves the creation of a smart irrigation system application, sluice gate automation, application of information technology for smart programming and early warning systems. Digitalization of sluice gates is expected to resolve various problems arising from manual management, such as unequal water distribution, misappropriation of water distribution, and lack of coordination between officers. This research concludes that digitalization of sluice gates can improve the efficiency of irrigation systems, support agricultural sustainability, and make a positive contribution to national food security.
