+86 15898932201Agricultural Weather Stations play a crucial role in monitoring multiple meteorological and environmental parameters to provide data support for agricultural production, given the significant impact of weather conditions on crop growth cycles.
Temperature Monitoring includes both air and soil temperatures. Air temperature directly influences crop physiology: high temperatures accelerate respiration, deplete nutrients, and inhibit growth, while low temperatures increase frost risks. Soil temperature affects seed germination and root development, with most crops requiring 15–25°C for optimal germination.
Humidity Monitoring involves relative humidity (affecting transpiration and pest/disease proliferation) and soil moisture (critical for water uptake and nutrient availability). High humidity (e.g., >85% for cucumber downy mildew) promotes diseases, while low humidity causes wilting. Soil drought directly restricts crop growth.
Light Monitoring covers intensity (energy source for photosynthesis, with crop-specific requirements like sunflowers needing high intensity) and duration (determines growth cycles, such as rice requiring shortened daylight to initiate flowering).
Wind Speed/Direction, Rainfall, and Atmospheric Pressure are also tracked. Strong winds cause lodging, while wind direction aids pest spread prediction. Optimal rainfall supports growth, but extremes lead to flooding or drought. Falling pressure signals approaching rain, guiding farming schedules.
Additionally, CO₂ concentration—a key photosynthesis input—is monitored. Greenhouse CO₂ enrichment can boost vegetable yields. Some stations integrate environmental data with pest/disease models to predict outbreaks (e.g., wheat rust under favorable humidity/temperature), enabling proactive control.
By comprehensively measuring these parameters, Agricultural Weather Stations provide robust support for sustainable agricultural development.
