[0002] Soil covers the surface of the earth's land and has fertility characteristics. Soil is composed of various granular minerals, organic matter, water, air, microorganisms, etc., and can grow plants. We usually call it mud. Loose soil particles are combined to form a form of soil filled with gaps. These pores contain dissolved solutions (liquids) and air (gas). Therefore, soil is usually considered to have multiple states.

[0003] Chinese patent CN108362342A discloses a portable dynamic monitoring device for forest soil parameters. A computer terminal, a measurement and control system installation plate, a lead-acid battery and a main control circuit board are installed in a metal shell. A shell bracket is arranged on the outside of the metal shell, and the metal shell is fixedly installed on the ground through the shell bracket. The soil temperature and humidity sensor is connected to the main control circuit board through a data transmission line. When in use, the parameters collected by the soil temperature and humidity sensor are saved to the main control circuit board and sent to the computer through a wireless transmission module. Targeted irrigation, fertilization or drainage and other important protection measures can be carried out according to abnormal data, so as to timely protect the living environment of plants and provide an effective basis for moisture research in forests.
