Smart Agricultural IoT Greenhouse Control

Smart agricultural Internet of Things is widely used in various fields of modern agriculture and is based on the development of current technology and high-speed networks. Greenhouses are now everywhere, and there are many types of greenhouses, including tunnel greenhouses, glass greenhouses, cold sheds, single-span sheds, multi-span greenhouses, and so on. They can be used for planting vegetables, fruits, seedlings, scientific research, sightseeing and other purposes. 

The application of the intelligent Internet of Things system in the greenhouse refers to the intelligent greenhouse control system. The intelligent greenhouse control system fully employs modern information technology, integrates software, intelligent control, IoT technology, audio and video technology, wireless communication technology and wisdom and knowledge to realize the informatization and standardization of key links in greenhouse control. The comprehensive application of various information technologies such as networking and geographic information systems in greenhouse control realizes more complete informatization basic support, more thorough agricultural information perception, more concentrated data resources, more extensive interconnection, and more in-depth information. Intelligent control, more intimate public service.

How does agricultural IoT make greenhouse control systems "smart"?

Intelligent greenhouse control system does not only refer to automatically control the room temperature of the greenhouse, fans, air conditioners, roller shutters, internal and external sunshades, etc., but also to automatically control irrigation and fertilization, and monitor the soil in real time through soil nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium sensors and soil moisture sensors. Nutrients and water in the water, control irrigation and fertilization through the monitoring of such data parameters

Types of Greenhouses

1. Simple hoop greenhouse

The simplest greenhouse, also called "Spring and Autumn Greenhouse" in China, is mostly used in the spring and autumn seasons in China. Such greenhouses have poor ability to resist the seasons.

2. Solar greenhouse

This most traditional greenhouse for growing vegetables in winter is also the most widely used vegetable greenhouse for planting and production in the north. The structure of the greenhouse is simple, the use of sunlight to recruit students to heat up, the roller shutter quilt to keep warm, and the internal soil wall to keep the temperature and other structural advantages, has always been the main force for vegetable
cultivation in the north.

3. Film multi-span greenhouse

Thin-film multi-span greenhouses belong to the category of semi-intelligent greenhouses, and their productivity and later transformation and upgrading are relatively high. There are also many construction standards. It can be simply designed and constructed, or the equipment of the smart greenhouse can be added. The height and span can be planned and designed according to the needs. The multi-span greenhouse is a necessary productive greenhouse for the planning and construction of the park.

4. Smart glass greenhouse

Smart glass greenhouses belong to the category of smart greenhouses and are a model of modern agricultural projects. Its production design specifications are rich, the configuration is rich in humanization, and the shape and planning can be designed. It has strong ability to resist wind and snow, and the internal heating and cooling facilities are all available.
