The measured data is displayed on the LCD screen 4, and the minimum soil moisture content set by the soil automatic irrigation module is compared with the measured soil moisture content. When the soil moisture content is lower than the set minimum soil moisture content, the water pump 5 is started by the MCU3, thereby automatically irrigating the soil to keep a certain moisture content in a long-term and stable manner. The temperature and humidity sensor 1 uses a stable capacitive humidity sensing element as a sensing element, which is converted into a digital signal output after being collected and processed by a microprocessor. Each sensor is calibrated and tested, and has the characteristics of long-term stability, high reliability, high precision and low power consumption.

The rotating handle 9 drives the threaded plate 10 to move downward through the threaded rod 8, and drives the two groups of support plates 15 to move downward with the cooperation of the limit plate 13. The two groups of support plates 15 drive multiple groups of plug plates 16 to pass through the through hole 17 and insert into the soil, so that the soil sensor 2 is more firmly set in the soil, thereby improving the detection effect of the soil sensor 2. At the same time, the soil sensor 2 can be waterproofed through the bottom plate 7 and the sleeve 6, so that the soil sensor 2 can be further protected.
