Design of energy-saving greenhouse automatic irrigation system

Abstract

In view of the urgent need of the greenhouse irrigation, a Energy-saving greenhouse automatic irrigation system is designed. The system is powered by solar energy and controlled by Single Chip Microcomputer. Multi-point humidity sensor is used to detect soil humidity. An intuitive system management platform is also provided to complete data processing. The information management software was developed for real-time monitoring and remote alarm monitoring. The experiment show that the system can realize the automatic irrigation function, when the soil humidity decreases to the lower threshold of soil humidity, the system starts to work, and when the irrigation reaches the upper threshold, the system can stop irrigation within 10min. The system is easy to operate and stable operation. It also has certain value of application. The development and use of this system can offer experience and technical support to the establishment of intelligent irrigation systems.
