Abstract:

Human society has developed into a new era of intelligent connection of everything, agricultural science has entered a new stage of data-intensive knowledge discovery, and smart agriculture has become an important part to support the implementation of the Rural Revitalization Strategy. Under this background, the traditional theoretical and technical system of crop cultivation could no longer meet the needs of the development of smart crop cultivation, and it is urgent to accelerate the deep integration and collaborative innovation with other related disciplines to develop smart crop cultivation. This study first elaborates the connotation and characteristics of smart crop cultivation, then clarifies the concept, research content and key technologies and the corresponding disciplinary system, and finally proposes the development trend, challenges, and countermeasures of crop cultivation. To implement major scientific discoveries, frontier technology breakthroughs and industrial model innovations around the four key aspects of connection, perception, cognition and control in smart cultivation, to build a theoretical and technological system of smart cultivation, and to promote the transformation and upgrading of traditional cultivation to smart cultivation will help achieve sustainable development of crop production and accelerate agricultural modernization.

Key words: smart crop cultivation, information-agronomy-machinery integration, smart control, big data
