[0002] With the development of agricultural technology, in order to increase crop yields, various fertilizers need to be applied during the growth process according to the actual conditions, such as nitrogen fertilizer, phosphorus fertilizer, potassium fertilizer, or other micro-fertilizers, slow-release fertilizers, and quick-acting fertilizers. Fertilization operations can better ensure the growth environment of crops, allowing them to grow better.
[0003] Fertilizer applicators are used during the fertilization process. Fertilizer is poured into the hopper of the applicator and stirred by a mixing mechanism to ensure better mixing and stable feeding. However, the hopper does not have a hot air conveying structure. Because the fertilizer is easily lumped together due to moisture buildup inside the hopper, the feeding of fertilizer becomes unstable. Therefore, it is necessary to add an air conveying structure to the hopper to better mix and dehumidify the fertilizer.
