Abstract

Although digital technologies on farms bridge the productivity-sustainability gap, they are not yet widely adopted. Familiarising farmers with digital systems is as important as developing advanced technological platforms: As farmers become accustomed to and feel in control of digital systems, they will find it easier to accept, adapt and keep pace with technological developments. This article describes the design and implementation of a flexible, scalable, easy-to-use and extensible IoT embedded system to control sprinkler irrigation in an outdoor Thuja conifer nursery in an automated mode and under varying weather. Irrigation is controlled by Mamdani Fuzzy Inference Logic based on rainfall prediction and real-time monitoring of the plants. The IoT system provides a control dashboard and offers three operating modes: manual, automated or scheduled (daily, weekly, and monthly). The system is robust in the event of a power outage or loss of connectivity. The code is available on GitHub. Sensors, solenoid valves, Raspberry Pi microcontrollers, fuzzy logic systems, a web interface and a cloud service create a sustainable solution that makes water use more efficient, creates a healthy environment for crops (using just the right amount of water), makes life easier for farmers, and exposes them to the benefits of the IoT.

基于智能和用户友好型物联网灌溉系统的数字农业:针叶树苗圃案例研究
尽管农场数字技术弥补了生产力与可持续性之间的差距,但尚未得到广泛应用。让农民熟悉数字系统与开发先进的技术平台同样重要:当农民习惯并感觉能够控制数字系统时,他们会发现更容易接受、适应和跟上技术发展的步伐。本文介绍了一个灵活、可扩展、易用且可扩展的物联网嵌入式系统的设计与实施,该系统可在不同天气条件下以自动化模式控制室外针叶树苗圃的喷灌。灌溉由马姆达尼模糊推理逻辑(Mamdani Fuzzy Inference Logic)根据降雨预测和对植物的实时监控进行控制。物联网系统提供一个控制面板,并提供三种操作模式:手动、自动或计划(每天、每周和每月)。该系统在断电或失去连接的情况下也能正常运行。代码可在 GitHub 上获取。传感器、电磁阀、Raspberry Pi 微控制器、模糊逻辑系统、网络接口和云服务创造了一个可持续的解决方案,提高了用水效率,为作物创造了一个健康的环境(使用恰到好处的水),使农民的生活更轻松,并让他们享受到物联网的好处。
