Precision Environmental Monitoring for Smart Tobacco
Tobacco is a high-value crop whose quality depends critically on environmental conditions throughout growth, processing, and storage. Traditional methods relying on manual experience cannot ensure batch consistency. Smart agriculture technology enables the transition from "experience-based" to "data-driven" tobacco production.
Industry Challenges and Pain Points
Incomplete Monitoring Data
Sparse monitoring points cannot capture environmental variations across 73,000m² facilities, leading to local control loss and uneven tobacco quality.
Data Lag and Delayed Decisions
Manual inspections cause hours of delay in data recording, preventing real-time response to environmental changes and missing optimal control windows.
Poor System Scalability
Fixed wiring systems cannot adapt to production line changes or monitoring point expansions without costly modifications.
High Labor Costs
Extensive manual work for environmental checks, data recording, and equipment adjustment drives up operational costs while limiting efficiency.

More Applications in Smart Tobacco Industry
Tobacco Growing Base Monitoring
In major tobacco regions like Yunnan and Guizhou, wireless networks monitor greenhouse and field conditions in real time. Combined with weather data, the system provides early warnings for frost, drought, and other risks, enabling precise irrigation and ventilation control.
Intelligent Tobacco Drying Management
High-density wireless monitoring in traditional drying rooms creates real-time temperature/humidity heat maps. Automated control of ventilation and humidification ensures uniform fermentation, increasing the percentage of premium-grade tobacco.
Success Story: Large Cigarette Factory Smart Warehouse Project
Project Background: A 73,000m² raw material warehouse with traditional wired monitoring covering less than 20% of the area suffered regular mold and insect damage with annual losses exceeding millions. Manual inspections caused significant data delays.
Solution: Deployed 86 POE gateways and 2,100 wireless temperature/humidity transmitters for 100% coverage. Integrated monitoring with HVAC control systems and created a 3D digital twin for visualization.
Implementation Results:The project established the sensing foundation for digital transformation, earning recognition as a "Smart Digital Factory Demonstration Project" with annual savings exceeding 10 million yuan.
