Every inch of land is quietly changing, even the orchards that we usually don't pay much attention to are no exception. Today, let's walk into those "weather detectives" hidden behind the green leaves - orchard weather monitoring station.
The first rays of the morning sun break through the mist and shine on the dewy apple trees, while the WX-NQ14 Orchard Weather monitoring station has quietly begun its work. It is not only the "weather forecaster" of the orchard, but also the "private doctor" of the growth of the fruit tree. Through high-precision sensors, the monitoring station can capture key meteorological data such as air temperature and humidity, light intensity, soil moisture, wind speed and direction in real time, which are like the "vital signs" of the orchard and provide a scientific basis for subsequent accurate management.
In the past, orchard irrigation often relied on empirical judgment, which was not scientific and easy to waste water resources. Now, with the support of weather monitoring stations, the orchards are irrigated on demand. According to the real-time monitoring results of soil moisture, the automatic control system can precisely adjust the irrigation amount, which not only ensures the water required for the growth of fruit trees, but also effectively saves water resources. As a result, even in the face of the dry season, the orchard can remain vibrant and full of fruit.
Climate change and extreme weather are a challenge for orchards. But the orchard meteorological monitoring station is like the "guardian" of the orchard, it can detect the coming adverse weather conditions such as frost, drought and strong winds in advance, and send early warning information to the farmer through the mobile phone APP or SMS. Fruit farmers were able to take measures in advance, such as laying cold cloths and building storm nets, to minimize losses.
Data is the "new oil" of modern agriculture. The large amount of data collected by the orchard meteorological monitoring station can be analyzed and processed by professional software to provide customized planting suggestions for fruit farmers. For example, according to the light intensity and time distribution, adjust the pruning scheme of fruit trees to improve photosynthetic efficiency; According to the trend of temperature change, the appropriate pollination period was selected to improve the fruit setting rate. These scientific decisions have improved the yield and quality of orchards, bringing real benefits to fruit farmers.
