The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations released an assessment report on October 13th, regarding the impact of disasters on global agricultural production and food security. The report states that disaster events have caused a loss of approximately $3.8 trillion in crop and livestock production over the past 30 years.

The FAO stated that this report, titled "The Impact of Disasters on Agriculture and Food Security," is the first global assessment conducted by the organization on how disasters affect agricultural production. The report reveals the significant impact of meteorological disasters on global agricultural production.

The report indicates that meteorological factors are currently one of the most serious threats to agriculture, and extreme weather events and climate change have brought great uncertainty to agriculture. To better monitor and understand the impact of meteorological factors on agriculture, agricultural meteorological monitoring instruments have emerged.

Agricultural meteorological monitoring instruments are advanced devices that offer various functional advantages and provide comprehensive meteorological monitoring services for agricultural production.

Agricultural meteorological instruments can measure many meteorological data, including temperature, humidity, air pressure, precipitation, wind speed, and wind direction to monitor environmental changes and help farmers better plan the planting and harvest of crops.

In addition, Agrometeorological stationregular monitoring of meteorological factors during the crop growth process helps to understand their impact on crops. This allows for appropriate water and fertilizer management, as well as the ability to predict and prevent disasters.

Agrometeorology monitor Agricultural meteorological instruments can provide accurate weather forecasts and warning information by monitoring real-time weather conditions and analyzing data.

This allows for adjustment of crop planting and fertilization timing, improved yield and crop quality, and prevention or mitigation of crop loss. Mitigating the impact of disasters on crops and agricultural production helps to improve the economic benefits and quality of life for farmers.

Forlinx Embedded provides NXP's i.MX9352 platform - FETMX9352-C industrial-grade SoM for agricultural meteorological detectors. The product undergoes strict stability testing to ensure hardware and system stability in various harsh environments in different regions.

 

Features of the scheme:

Integrated NPU: Meeting AI Edge Computing Needs

Network communication: support 2-lane gigabit network, support 4G, Bluetooth and other wireless communication modes, select wired and wireless transmission modes according to the environment, and upload the collected data to the server.

Support 8-lane serial port: can be connected to a variety of sensor devices, such as: temperature, humidity, wind, rainfall, etc.

Support SPI: expandable analog ADC, 24-bit accuracy

Support SD card: can be used for local storage

Agrometeorological monitoring instrument plays a very important role in the field of agriculture.The growth and development of crops can not be separated from meteorological conditions and agrometeorology monitor.

The construction of the instrument is helpful to grasp and monitor the changes of meteorological conditions in the process of crop planting, predict and prevent possible meteorological disasters, and provide decision-making suggestions and scientific basis and technical support for farmers.
