Precision Irrigation Guided by Soil Moisture Monitoring

To formulate an irrigation plan based on soil moisture monitoring data, multiple factors need to be taken into comprehensive consideration, including soil type, crop water requirements, historical and real-time evaporation data, crop growth stages, and real-time weather changes. Firstly, understanding the soil type and the moisture requirements of the crops is fundamental, as different soils have different water-holding capacities, and the water requirements of crops also vary in different growth stages. Moreover, collecting historical and real-time evaporation data is helpful for calculating the water requirements of the crops. Use soil moisture monitoring equipment to collect soil moisture data at different depths.

After collecting these data, the frequency of irrigation and the amount of each irrigation can be calculated to ensure that the crops obtain sufficient water during the critical growth stages. Finally, continuously monitor soil moisture and weather forecasts in real time so as to promptly adjust the irrigation plan to cope with possible future weather changes. If rainfall is predicted in the future, the amount of irrigation can be appropriately reduced to avoid wasting water resources.

The utilization of intelligent Soil moisture monitoring equipment can further enhance the precision of irrigation. These systems are capable of providing functions such as data reporting and collection, visual analysis, and data mining applications, helping farmers achieve precision irrigation. Meanwhile, ensuring the quality of the monitoring data is also of crucial importance. The use of a data verification and repair system can improve the efficiency and quality of data processing, providing reliable data support for irrigation decisions.

Fengtu now launches an advanced Soil moisture monitoring equipment, which integrates a data collection module, soil sensing components, wireless data transmission components, a Global Positioning System (GPS), and a power module, and is able to continuously and realistically track the humidity and temperature conditions of different soil layers. The system transmits the collected data instantly to the application platform on the user's computer or mobile device through the embedded wireless communication technology.
