The traditional aquaculture industry places high requirements on the detection and control of water quality. The city of Changzhou has taken the lead in the province to create an Internet of Things smart fish pond breeding.
It was in the morning and Sun Keqing, a fish breeder in Zhixi Town, Jintan District, opened his mobile phone app on time to check the water quality and fish fry in the fish pond.
His 70 mu of fish ponds are equipped with sensors from the State Grid Changzhou Power Supply Company. Through remote data collection, the water temperature, dissolved oxygen, and PH values in the ponds are transmitted to the power company's integrated energy service platform, which is convenient for farmers to gain a real-time understanding of the situations in the fish ponds.
The intelligent fish breeding system can also automatically feed and remotely increase oxygen. Night patrol pond was a work that Sun Keqing had to do every night. Now what he needs to do is to set the value through the mobile phone. Once the oxygen content in the pond is too low, the aeration pump will automatically turn on, which saves electricity and saves Sun Keqing from staying up late to patrol the pond.
Earlier this year, the Jintan District Power Supply Company, in collaboration with the local aquatic technology guidance station，made successful integration of the fishery data and power data across borders.
When launched in June, the system covered the 200-mu Jintan District Fishery Science and Technology Demonstration Base on the bank of Changdang Lake, relieving 90% of the manual workload and reducing power consumption by 30%.
At present, work on the Jintan digital fishery project has begun. Covering a total area of 6,500 mu, the project will involve a total investment of 300 million yuan. Upon its completion, it will be equipped with an "intelligent fishery" system and take the lead in carrying out a full-scale mechanized experimental demonstration of river crab production in the country.
