The invention discloses a profiling variable spraying machine based on crown phenotypic characteristics and a profiling control method. The profiling variable spraying machine comprises a profiling mechanism module A, a profiling mechanism module B, a lifting sliding module, a profiling support module, a liquid supply system, an electric box and a detection module. On the basis of function and mechanism division of the profiling variable spraying machine, modular and lightweight design is adopted, and the whole machine has the advantages of being compact in structure, light, flexible, easy tomanufacture and maintain and the like. The self-adaptive profiling control method of the profiling variable sprayer comprises the steps that ultrasonic echo signals are automatically collected and processed to obtain tree canopy phenotypic characteristic information, and then the spraying amount is calculated according to canopy volume and canopy leaf area density phenotypic characteristic parameters; the profiling control quantity is calculated through the ultrasonic ranging information, the profiling mechanism is driven to conduct profiling, automatic profiling of the crown outline is achieved, the profiling precision is high, spraying is accurate and efficient, pesticide is saved, the environment is protected, and operation is easy and convenient.
