Detailed Implementation

[0022] The simplified fertigation system for macadamia nuts described in this embodiment allows for scientific control of water and fertilizer supply based on the different growth stages of macadamia nuts and their specific water and fertilizer requirements. A 15m high, level plot of land at the highest point of the orchard is selected. 2 The area, measuring 5m in length and 3m in width, was hardened, and 20m of it was installed. 3 A stainless steel water storage tank 1, measuring 4m in length, 2.5m in width, and 2m in height, is connected to the water storage tank 1. Three pipes are connected to the tank: an outlet pipe 6, a pressure pipe 4, and a sewage pipe 3. The outlet pipe 6 and pressure pipe 4 are at the same height. Each of the three pipes is equipped with a gate valve 7 and a water meter 8. A pressure gauge 5 is installed on the pressure pipe 4. A Φ40 tee is connected after the water meter 8 as a water distribution connector 9. Φ40 hoses are then connected to both ends of the water distribution connector 9, and gate valves 7 are installed on each end. One branch connects to the network, while the other serves as a backup. Multiple branches can be connected as needed to create a multi-branch network.

[0023] The water storage tank 1 has an opening at the top, which is covered by a cover plate 15. A ladder is provided on one side of the water storage tank for easy maintenance or water and fertilizer preparation. The water storage tank 1 is connected to a water supply system 2, which fills the water storage tank 1 with water.

[0024] Orchard Pipeline Layout: The main pipeline 10 is laid out in the orchard along the height of the orchard and perpendicular to the planting rows, utilizing gravity to provide water pressure. The main pipeline 10 is connected to the water distribution connector 9. The main pipeline 10 uses Φ40 rubber hose. Two Φ40 to Φ20 reducing tees are installed where the main pipeline 10 passes through the planting rows. Branch pipelines 11 are laid out along the fruit tree planting rows. Branch pipelines 11 use Φ20 rubber hose and are connected to Φ40 to Φ20 reducing tees. Each branch pipeline 11 is equipped with a branch valve 12 to regulate water flow. The branch pipelines 11 are installed overhead, and the overhead height of the branch pipelines 11 is less than or equal to the height of the main trunk of the fruit tree. In actual layout, the branch pipelines 11 pass through the first layer of main branches of the fruit tree and are placed on the main trunk of the fruit tree, saving costs and being less susceptible to damage from external forces.

[0025] Connect capillary tubes 13 to branch pipes 11 at a distance of 20-30cm from the main trunk of the fruit tree. The other end of the capillary tube 13 extends towards the ground and is connected to a micro-sprinkler 14, which is 30-50cm above the ground. A weight 16 is fitted onto the capillary tube 13, positioned close to the micro-sprinkler 14. Each branch pipe 11 connects to 20-30 capillary tubes 13, spraying water and fertilizer onto 20-30 fruit trees. Continue this process to complete the arrangement of branch pipes 11 and capillary tubes 13 for all rows of fruit trees. Depending on the size of the orchard and other practical considerations, multiple main pipe networks 10 can be added. The micro-sprinkler 14 is a rotating micro-sprinkler that uses rotation to throw water in all directions. The micro-sprinkler 14 is a certain distance from the ground to ensure that the water is fully dispersed and the spraying area is guaranteed. Under the action of wind, the water droplets are scattered and the capillary tube 13 is swayed, which can further increase the spraying area. The water can fully penetrate into the soil. During the spraying process, it can also reduce the temperature and increase the air humidity. The capillary tube 13 is a certain distance from the trunk to avoid water and fertilizer being sprayed directly on the trunk and to prevent the capillary tube from getting tangled on the trunk.

[0026] The water supply system 2 includes an upper spray pipe 17 arranged around the interior perimeter of the water storage tank 1 and a side spray pipe 18 arranged at the bottom of the water storage tank 1. The spray pipe 17 is located at the top of the water storage tank 1, and the side spray pipe 18 is located near one side wall of the water storage tank 1. The bottom of the spray pipe 17 has spray holes facing the inner wall of the water storage tank 1, and the side wall of the side spray pipe 18 also has spray holes. Both the spray pipe 17 and the side spray pipe 18 are in fluid communication with the water supply pipe 23. By setting the spray pipe 17 to spray water downward along the inner wall of the water storage tank 1 and the side spray pipe 18 to spray water laterally along the bottom of the water storage tank 1, the water storage tank 1 can be thoroughly cleaned. At the same time, the impurities deposited at the bottom can be moved by the impact of the water flow and discharged with the water flow. The spray pipe 17 and the side spray pipe 18 can also stir the water in the water storage tank 1, which can promote the mixing of water and fertilizer.

[0027] like Figure 4 As shown, a storage tank 19 is provided on one side of the water storage tank 1. The storage tank 19 is installed and arranged according to the site conditions. The volume of the storage tank 19 is set to be able to hold the required volume of water-soluble fertilizer. The top of the storage tank 19 is provided with a removable sealing cover. A dispersion pipe 20 is connected to the middle of one side of the storage tank 19. A connecting pipe 21 is connected to the bottom of the other side of the storage tank 19. A three-way switching valve 22 is provided at the front end of the water supply pipe 23. The dispersion pipe 20 is connected to one port of the three-way switching valve 22. The other end of the connecting pipe 21 is connected to the rear end of the water supply pipe 23. A one-way valve is installed on the connecting pipe 21. In water supply mode, the three-way switching valve 22 connects the water supply pipe 23, allowing clean water to directly enter the spray pipe 17 and side spray pipe 18 from the water supply pipe 23, filling the water storage tank 1. A one-way valve ensures that water will not enter the storage tank 19 from the connecting pipe 21. Removing the one-way valve prevents water from entering the storage tank 19 due to pressure inside the tank. Installing the one-way valve avoids the presence of pressurized gas inside the storage tank 19, enhancing safety. When mixing water-soluble fertilizer, before turning on the water supply, first open the sealing cap on the storage tank 19 and add the water-soluble fertilizer. Then close the sealing cover and switch the three-way switching valve 22 to connect the water supply pipe 23 and the dispersion pipe 20. Then turn on the water source and the clean water directly enters the storage tank 19. The clean water mixes with the water-soluble fertilizer and pushes the liquid from the connecting pipe 21 into the rear end of the water supply pipe 23 until the water-soluble fertilizer in the storage tank 19 is completely pushed into the water storage tank 1. Then it enters the spray pipe 17 and the side spray pipe 18. Under the spray action of the spray holes, the clean water and the water-soluble fertilizer are fully mixed until enough water is added into the water storage tank 1. Then turn off the water source and control the water source through the gate valve.

[0028] Cost analysis is conducted using the construction of a 100-mu macadamia nut orchard as an example:

[0029] Floor hardening: 15m 2 ×100 yuan / m 2 =0.15 million yuan

[0030] Second regulating reservoir: 20m 3 ×1000 yuan / m 2 =20,000 yuan

[0032] Four micro-sprinkler installations: 100 mu × 100 yuan / mu = 10,000 yuan

[0033] Total: 121,500 yuan.

Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of the claims of this patent application.
