Project Overview
In Luobei County, Heilongjiang Province, a 30,000-acre corn farm adopted a smart agriculture monitoring system to enhance crop management and resource efficiency. The solution integrated real-time field data collection (soil temperature/humidity, pH, salinity, wind speed/direction, light intensity, rainfall, pest populations, and crop growth status) to optimize decision-making in breeding, land preparation, irrigation, fertilization, pesticide application, and harvesting.
Key Solutions
Four-Condition Monitoring System
Deployed sensors to track soil, weather, pests, and crop health, enabling data-driven farming decisions.
Automated Water-Fertilizer Integration
Installed smart fertilizing machines and 4G-enabled irrigation controllers to deliver timed, quantified, and targeted water/fertilizer distribution, resolving uneven irrigation and low fertilizer efficiency.
Project Benefits
15% reduction in chemical fertilizer and pesticide usage.
35% savings in irrigation water consumption.
8% increase in corn yield per acre.
Triple-win outcomes:
Economic: Higher productivity and cost savings.
Ecological: Reduced agrochemical pollution and water conservation.
Social: Promoted sustainable farming practices.
Impact
This project demonstrates how precision agriculture technologies can transform traditional farming into a resource-efficient, high-yield, and environmentally friendly system, aligning with global goals for smart and sustainable agriculture.
