Abstract

In order to solve the problem of how to irrigate and fertilize in farmland on rainy days, an intelligent fertilization strategy based on integration of soil moisture and forecast rainfall is designed in this paper. According to crop growth period, total amount of irrigation and fertilization is calculated by using soil moisture. Combined with meteorological forecast, amount of water for irrigation is compensated by forecast rainfall, which can provide a fertilization strategy for crop in its different growth periods. And it will provide technical support for development of irrigation and fertilization integrated machine in future.
