Northern corn leaf blight is a major disease in corn production. It is caused by Setosphaeria turcica and causes damage to leaf sheaths and bracts. This disease usually starts from the bottom leaves of corn and gradually develops upward. In severe cases, it can affect the whole plant. In some cases, it may also start from the middle and upper leaves. Therefore, the monitoring and early warning of northern corn leaf blight are particularly important.
With the application of Internet of Things technology in the agricultural field, many modern monitoring equipments have begun to be put into use. The spore trap - Corn leaf spot monitor is one of them. This equipment is specially developed for plant diseases and can automatically monitor pathogenic spores in the air, providing a scientific basis for early warning of diseases.
Working principle:
During the growth period of corn, the Corn leaf spot monitor uses its aerodynamic design to draw in air samples with a fan. In this process, spores carrying pathogens are collected and adhered to a specially made glass slide. Subsequently, the built-in high-definition camera and microscope take pictures of these spores and upload the image data to the remote Internet of Things monitoring platform.
The application of the Corn leaf spot monitor greatly simplifies the monitoring and early warning work of plant protection personnel for northern corn leaf blight. Using this equipment, staff can take preventive and control measures in advance based on real-time monitoring data, thereby ensuring the yield and quality of crops.
