Apr 20,2023
Agricultural sensors mainly include life information sensors and environmental sensors.
The life information sensor is to analyze the plant growth status by detecting the content of plant information elements, pesticides and fertilizers and other elements in the process of plant growth, and digitally processing plant growth signs.
Environmental sensors mainly monitor and analyze the environment in which plants grow, such as water, soil, and air, and keep abreast of environmental changes to ensure that plant growth and crop quality reach a better level.
The monitoring of meteorological environment information such as carbon dioxide concentration, oxygen concentration, ammonia concentration, light, temperature, humidity, etc. in the environment helps to regulate and improve the growth environment of crops and animals, while the monitoring of ammonia, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, methane and other agricultural The monitoring of polluting gases will help promote the sustainable development of agricultural ecology. Facility agriculture needs real-time monitoring of meteorological environment information in the greenhouse to maintain an environment suitable for crop growth.
Sensors commonly used in agriculture

A large number of sensor nodes form a monitoring network. Thresholds can be set on the intelligent breeding platform. When the collected environmental data exceeds the threshold, the system can automatically alarm. Through the set alarm methods (platform alarm, mobile phone SMS alarm, etc.), to This is to help managers discover problems in a timely manner and accurately locate the individual who has the problem.
In addition, the intelligent breeding platform can also realize the intelligentization of environmental regulation. When the environment is abnormal and alarms, the platform can link the control equipment to automatically control the infrared lamp, fan, wet curtain, etc. according to the set parameter values, so that Breeding management is more precise, efficient and easy.

Agricultural Internet of Things is a new industry, recognized by the world as the third wave of information revolution after the computer Internet. As a large agricultural country in my country, agricultural production occupies an important position in the national economy, and aquaculture production occupies a relatively large proportion. The introduction of modern Internet of Things technology into the aquaculture industry to realize the automation of aquaculture environment monitoring and management is of great significance to modern agriculture and aquaculture. .
The agricultural breeding Internet of Things is a monitoring network composed of a large number of sensor nodes, and various sensors such as CO2, NH3, H2S, temperature and humidity are installed in the farm to realize online environmental monitoring. Farmers can set thresholds on the smart breeding platform based on experience. When the collected environmental data exceeds the threshold, the system can automatically alarm and use the set alarm methods (platform alarm, mobile phone SMS alarm, etc.) to help management The operator finds the problem in time, and accurately locates the individual livestock and poultry that has the problem.
In addition, the intelligent breeding platform can also realize the intelligentization of environmental regulation. When the environment is abnormal and alarms, the platform can link the control equipment to automatically control the infrared lamp, fan, wet curtain, etc. according to the set parameter values, so that Breeding management is more precise, efficient and easy.
Carbon dioxide is non-toxic, but if the carbon dioxide content in the breeding house is too high, the oxygen content will be relatively insufficient; ammonia gas is a recognized stress source, hydrogen sulfide is a toxic gas with a relatively high concentration in livestock and poultry breeding houses, ammonia and hydrogen sulfide Mainly from the decomposition of organic matter (feces, bedding and feed).
The stimulation of harmful gases such as ammonia to the respiratory mucosa of farmed animals can easily induce chronic respiratory diseases, followed by ascites syndrome, etc., which is extremely harmful to farmed animals and easily pollutes the surrounding environment.

Therefore, it is necessary to analyze and detect CO2, NH3, H2S and other gases in the farm to control the concentration of various gases.
The intelligent livestock and poultry breeding environment measurement and control Internet of Things system uses carbon dioxide sensors, ammonia sensors, hydrogen sulfide sensors and other equipment to collect gas parameter values in the breeding house in real time. The value is transmitted to the management platform, and the control equipment is linked to control ventilation, which can discharge dirty air in time and continuously absorb fresh air. At the same time, taking into account the impact on the temperature and humidity in the house, choose ventilation when the temperature is higher in winter, and choose cool nights or morning ventilation in summer.
The promotion and application of agricultural Internet of Things technology in the field of breeding is an important means to realize intelligent control, scientific management, information service, and full traceability of the production and operation process. It will improve resource utilization and labor productivity, increase product output, It is of great significance to improve the quality and safety, improve the income level of farmers and the health level of consumers.
