臺灣南投地區的茶產業長期受到水資源短缺的困擾,主要原因在於傳統灌溉管線易損壞且維護成本高,導致超過 50% 的茶園未設置灌溉設備,僅能依賴自然降雨。然而,受氣候變遷影響,降雨量分布日趨不均,導致茶園頻繁出現旱害,影響茶葉生長及產量。
HYDRIP 作為創新型智能滴灌設備,針對茶園的水資源困境提出解決方案。該系統利用溫差變化所產生的水氣,透過高效捕霧網收集空氣中的凝結水滴,並輔以雨水儲存機制,確保茶農能穩定獲取水源,提升灌溉的可持續性。此外,HYDRIP 結合 AIoT 智能監控技術,能夠即時偵測土壤濕度,並自動控制滴灌開關,確保茶樹獲得適量水分,減少過度灌溉或缺水風險。
本系統不僅提高了水資源利用效率,還能有效降低傳統灌溉設備的維護成本,為茶農提供更加智慧、便捷且永續的灌溉管理方案,從而提升茶葉品質與產業競爭力。HYDRIP 的導入將成為茶農應對極端氣候變遷的重要助力,推動臺灣茶產業向環保與智慧農業方向發展。
Due to the traditional irrigation pipes are easy to damage and high maintenance costs, so more than 50% of the tea plantations in Nantou, Taiwan do not use irrigation facilities, only rely on natural rainfall, but due to the impact of climate change, the rainfall is uneven, the tea plantations appeared in the "drought damage" phenomenon. HYDRIP-Water to find the tea drip irrigation equipment in order to improve the tea agriculture of the lack of natural water resources, the use of temperature changes in the generation of moisture through the fog net effectively collects the condensation of the droplets, and also help tea farmers to store rainfall, so that tea farmers can have enough water sources to easily and continuously irrigate tea trees, so that the soil has enough moisture. At the same time, it helps tea farmers to store rainfall, so that they can have enough water to irrigate tea trees easily and continuously, and make the soil have enough moisture. In addition, HYDRIP combines with AIOT intelligent monitoring, which can automatically detect the soil moisture level and control the drip irrigation switch by itself, providing tea farmers with more intelligent and convenient irrigation management.
