[0020] In the following description, specific details such as specific system structures, techniques, etc. are presented in order to thoroughly understand the embodiments of the present disclosure. However, it should be clear to those skilled in the art that the present disclosure can also be implemented in other embodiments without these specific details. In other cases, detailed descriptions of well-known devices, circuits and methods are omitted to avoid unnecessary details that hinder the description of the present disclosure.
[0021] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure clearer, the following will be described by specific embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0022] Reference should be made to Figure 1 , Figure 1 The flowchart of the plant growth monitoring method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown in the figure. The method comprises:
[0023] S101: Obtain first feature information and second feature information of the target plant; the first feature information is feature information of the aboveground part of the target plant, and the second feature information is feature information of the underground part of the target plant.
[0024] In this embodiment, the target plant can be corn, cotton, pea, rice and wheat, and the first feature information can be the size of the leaf, the number of leaves and the stem diameter of the plant, and the second feature information can be the root depth, the number of roots and the root diameter of the plant; the feature information of the aboveground part of the plant can be obtained by a mobile phone, a camera, a camera and the like, and the feature information of the underground part of the plant can be obtained by a root in-situ analyzer, a ground penetrating radar, a CT scan and the like.
[0025] For example, the root in-situ analyzer can obtain the image information of the underground part of the plant by high-resolution camera shooting, near-infrared light or laser scanning and the like.
[0026] The ground penetrating radar can emit high-frequency electromagnetic wave pulses to the underground. When these electromagnetic waves propagate in the soil, if they encounter plant roots, due to the physical and electrical properties of the roots being different from the surrounding soil, part of the energy of the electromagnetic waves will be reflected, refracted and scattered. By receiving and analyzing the intensity, propagation time and waveform characteristics of these echo signals, the position, depth, size, shape and distribution of the plant roots can be inferred.
[0027] The CT scan can use X-rays to irradiate the plant roots from multiple angles, and measure the degree of attenuation of the X-rays after passing through the plant roots. For plant roots, due to their tissue density and composition being different from the surrounding soil, the absorption and attenuation of X-rays are also different. During the scanning process, the X-ray source rotates around the plant sample, and the detector receives the X-rays passing through the sample on the other side. Then, the computer reconstructs a three-dimensional image of the plant roots according to the data obtained by the detector.
[0028] This embodiment can collect the feature information of the aboveground part of crops such as corn, cotton, pea, rice and millet, such as leaf size, leaf number and stem diameter, and the feature information of the underground part, such as root depth, root number and root diameter, to provide reliable data support for further data processing.
[0029] S102: Calculate the growth index of the target plant based on the first feature information and the second feature information.
[0030] In this embodiment, the target plant can be corn, the first feature information can be the feature information of the leaf size, the leaf number and the stem thickness of the corn aboveground part, and the second feature information can be the feature information of the root depth, the root number and the root thickness of the corn underground part; the growth index of the corn can be calculated based on the feature information of the leaf size, the leaf number and the stem thickness of the corn aboveground part and the feature information of the root depth, the root number and the root thickness of the corn underground part; the calculation method can be to obtain the growth index of the corn aboveground part according to the first feature information, obtain the growth index of the corn underground part according to the second feature information, average the growth index of the corn aboveground part and the growth index of the corn underground part to calculate the growth index of the corn; or, different weights are assigned to the growth index of the corn aboveground part and the growth index of the corn underground part, and the growth index of the corn is calculated according to the weights; the growth index of the corn aboveground part can be calculated according to the leaf size, the leaf number, the aboveground part height, the stem thickness and other information of the corn by assigning different weights, and the growth index of the corn underground part can be calculated according to the root depth, the root number, the root thickness and other information of the corn by assigning different weights.
[0031] In this embodiment, the feature information of the corn aboveground part and the feature information of the corn underground part collected can be used to calculate the growth index of the corn.
[0032] S103: Determine the growth stage of the target plant based on the growth index.
[0033] In this embodiment, the growth index can be the growth index of the apple tree, and the growth stage of the apple tree can be determined by the growth index of the apple tree. The growth stage can be the germination period, the seedling period, the growth period (including the rapid growth period and the slow growth period), the flowering period and the fruiting period. The relationship model between the growth stage and the growth index can be established according to the growth characteristics and biological laws of the apple tree. This model can be based on statistical and biological principles, and the model can reflect the change trend and characteristics of the growth index of the plant in different growth stages. After the relationship model between the growth stage and the growth index is established, the division standards of each growth stage need to be determined. These standards can be specific thresholds of the growth index, and the standards are determined based on a large amount of experimental data and biological knowledge.
[0034] In this embodiment, the growth index of the apple tree can be used to determine the growth stage of the apple tree, which reduces the labor cost and provides data reference for subsequent monitoring of the apple tree.
[0035] From the above, the present disclosure can comprehensively and accurately evaluate the overall growth of the plant by obtaining the feature information of the aboveground part and the underground part. This multi-dimensional evaluation method can more accurately reflect the actual growth state of the plant and reduce the misjudgment caused by the fluctuation of a single indicator. Determining the growth stage based on the accurately calculated growth index helps to take targeted maintenance measures in a timely manner.
[0036] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first feature information and the second feature information of the target plant are obtained, including:

The second monitoring instrument can be a root in-situ analyzer, and the second monitoring information can be image information of the underground part of the sorghum.

The first feature information can be feature information such as leaf size, leaf number, and stem thickness of the aboveground part of the sorghum. The second feature information can be feature information such as root depth, root number, and root thickness of the underground part of the sorghum.
[0042] For example, the camera photographs the aboveground part of the sorghum to obtain pictures or videos, and the root in-situ analyzer scans or photographs the underground part of the sorghum to obtain pictures or videos.
