Soil moisture refers to the water content in the soil (i.e., soil humidity), which is generally classified into four levels: "wet - damp - moist - dry". The real-time soil moisture monitoring equipment independently developed and produced by Fengtu Technology helps growers timely measure and grasp changes in soil moisture, accurately understand the water demand of crops, and provide a scientific decision-making basis for agricultural activities.
The tube-type soil moisture sensor adopts the FDR (Frequency Domain Reflectometry) principle. It utilizes the frequency difference of electromagnetic waves in substances with different dielectric constants to dynamically observe the water content of different soil layers. With a layered observation structure, soil temperature, humidity, and EC (Electrical Conductivity) measurement points are set at 10 cm underground, and an additional soil temperature and humidity monitoring point is set every 10 cm in the soil layer, covering the moisture observation within the corresponding range. This sensor has a wide range of application scenarios, including scientific experiments, water-saving irrigation, greenhouses, flower and vegetable cultivation, grassland and pasture management, rapid soil testing, plant cultivation, sewage treatment, and grain storage. It can also measure the water content and temperature of various particulate matter, and has good protective performance to adapt to the corresponding working environment.
The Automatic Soil Monitoring System is an IoT system combining hardware and software. It can real-time monitor the soil environment within a specific range and count data, mainly measuring soil temperature, humidity, and electrical conductivity. Equipped with self-developed agricultural intelligent sensors by Fengtu Technology and matched with a smart agriculture management platform, it allows growers to remotely view soil information and trend analysis. This system helps improve agricultural production efficiency and optimize the ecological environment, with application scenarios similar to those of the aforementioned sensor. It features flexible power supply methods to meet the needs of different scenarios, and is dustproof and waterproof, enabling stable operation in various environments.
Soil health is crucial to food security and ecological civilization. Fengtu Technology’s soil moisture monitoring equipment has been applied in a variety of agricultural scenarios, providing data support for agricultural activities and high crop yields.
