Precision Drip Irrigation Intelligent Control System for Cotton & Wheat

Precision Drip Irrigation Intelligent Control System for Cotton & Wheat

The Precision Drip Irrigation Intelligent Control System is engineered to address the critical irrigation needs of China's two major staple crops. Xinjiang, as China's largest cotton-producing region, has over 35 million mu under cultivation, predominantly using sub-film drip irrigation. Meanwhile, the North China Plain grows over 150 million mu of wheat, with increasing adoption of center-pivot sprinkler and subsurface drip irrigation technologies. This system directly combats the inefficiency of traditional flood irrigation, which wastes 400-600 cubic meters of water per mu, by enabling precision irrigation that can reduce water usage to 200-300 cubic meters per mu.

Core Advantages of the Intelligent Irrigation System

Ecolor Technology's system integrates advanced hardware and software to create a fully automated, data-driven irrigation management platform. It utilizes real-time soil moisture and weather data as primary decision inputs. The system then executes commands via smart field devices, with the Hero V9 RTU handling data acquisition and remote control, all managed through an integrated fertigation platform for synchronized water and nutrient delivery.

• Intelligent Decision-Making: Soil moisture + weather linked intelligent irrigation decisions.
• Precise Water Measurement: LGF electromagnetic flowmeters for precise per-unit water metering.
• Variable-Rate Control: Smart field water devices with electromagnetic valve variable-rate control.
• Integrated Fertigation: Unified platform for precision fertilizer delivery alongside irrigation.
• Robust Communication: Hero V9 RTU with solar power and reliable 4G/BeiDou communication.
• Dual-Mode Support: Supports both cotton sub-film drip and wheat center-pivot sprinkler irrigation modes.

System Components and Technical Specifications

Application Scenarios for Precision Irrigation

This intelligent control system is specifically designed for large-scale, water-sensitive agricultural operations. Its primary application is in the vast cotton fields of Xinjiang, where sub-film drip irrigation is standard. It is equally effective for wheat cultivation on the North China Plain, supporting modern irrigation methods like center-pivot sprinkler and subsurface drip systems. The system is ideal for farms and agricultural cooperatives seeking to maximize yield while minimizing water consumption and fertilizer input through automated, precision agriculture practices.
