In the process of addressing the challenges of global water shortage and land salinization, precise monitoring of water and salt dynamics in soil profiles has become a key factor in agriculture, ecology and water resource management. HONDE soil tubular sensors, with their unique tubular structure design, have achieved long-term, stable and in-situ monitoring of soil moisture and salinity at different depths, providing valuable data from the “deep underground” for precise decision-making in many countries and regions around the world.
Western United States: “Water-saving Navigator” for Smart Farms
In the Central Valley of California, USA, the tight distribution of water resources makes agricultural irrigation have to be carried out with the utmost precision. HONDE soil tubular sensors deeply buried in the root zone of large farms can continuously monitor the volumetric moisture content and electrical conductivity of different soil layers. By analyzing these profile data, farmers can not only determine the actual water absorption depth of the crop roots, but also implement precise depth irrigation to promote root penetration. It can more keenly capture the migration and accumulation trend of salt in the soil profile, and promptly carry out leaching through irrigation, effectively preventing the occurrence of secondary salinization. While ensuring crop yields, it achieves efficient utilization of water resources.
Central Asia: The “Saline-alkali Land Stethoscope” for Ecological Restoration
In the saline-alkali land governance demonstration area of Uzbekistan, scientists are using HONDE soil tubular sensors to evaluate the effects of different improvement measures. Sensors are installed in monitoring Wells at different depths, continuously and over a long period of time recording the dynamic changes in soil salinity caused by irrigation and evaporation. These high-resolution profile data, like a “CT scan” of the land, clearly reveal how amendments drive salt leaching and the impact of groundwater capillary rise on topsoil salt return, providing crucial scientific basis for screening out the most economical and effective ecological restoration plan for saline-alkali land.
Western Europe: The “Flavor Sculptor” of Vineyards
In the renowned wineries of Bordeaux, France, the quality and flavor of grapes are closely related to the soil moisture conditions. The winery has installed HONDE soil tubular sensors at key locations within the vineyard to monitor the water stress conditions of different soil layers, especially deep soil. Based on the precise data provided by sensors, winemakers precisely control irrigation during the grape color change period and the ripening period, applying appropriate water stress to the grapevines. This precise management has been proven to effectively promote the accumulation of flavor substances such as anthocyanins and tannins in grape fruits, thereby “crafting” top-quality wine flavors that are more layered and complex.
The “Salinity Warning Network” of Green Cities along the Middle East Coast
In Doha, the capital of Qatar, the invasion of high-salinity irrigation water and underground seawater is a persistent threat to the preservation of precious urban green Spaces. The HONDE soil tubular sensor network, which is spread throughout the underground of urban parks and important green belts, forms an efficient “salinity early warning system”. They continuously monitor the salt concentration in each layer of the soil profile. Once an abnormal increase in salt content is detected in the root active layer, the system will immediately sound an alarm, alerting the management personnel to adjust the irrigation strategy or take salt washing measures, thus safeguarding this hard-won green lifeline in the desert city.
From optimizing every drop of water on American farms to decoding the improvement code of saline-alkali land in Central Asia; From refining the flavors of French vineyards to safeguarding the green dreams of Middle Eastern cities, HONDE’s soil tubular sensors are transforming the hidden world beneath the soil into clear and visible data streams with their unique depth perception capabilities. Globally, it is becoming a powerful underground equipment for managers to address water and salt challenges and achieve sustainable development of land resources.
