On the evening of December 10, 2020, CCTV’s program I Love Inventions reported on the apple industry in Weihai, Shandong Province. Weihai is well‑known for its extensive apple orchards. After apple harvesting in late November, the orchards enter a critical fertilization season. Although orchard fertilization seems simple, it actually involves complex procedures, including ditching, fertilizer spreading, and soil covering. To improve efficiency and nutrient absorption, Cui Qiang, a local resident of Weihai, CEO of Weihai ZY Modern Agricultural Equipment Technology Co., Ltd. invented an orchard fertilizing machine. This machine integrates the three major processes into one, significantly improving fertilization efficiency. This amazing machine became the highlight of I Love Inventions and was named the “Fertilization Strongman.”

The core feature of this orchard manure fertilizer spreader lies in its integrated design. Traditional orchard fertilization involves separate processes such as fertilization, irrigation, and soil loosening, which typically consume a great deal of labor and time. However, the orchard fertilizer applicator developed by Cui Qing (Zoomye) integrates these three key procedures into one, greatly simplifying the fertilization workflow.

Equipped with advanced agricultural technology, the machine realizes automatic and intelligent operation. It can automatically adjust the fertilization rate based on soil nutrient content, crop requirements, and other factors to ensure crops receive sufficient nutrition. Meanwhile, the machine is also fitted with a high-efficiency irrigation system, which supplies water to crops simultaneously during fertilization, promoting crop growth speed and quality.

II. Advantages of the Orchard Fertilizer Applicator

1. Improved fertilization efficiency
Unlike traditional manual fertilization, this machine automatically completes fertilization, irrigation, and soil loosening, significantly boosting operational efficiency.
2. Precise fertilization
The machine automatically regulates fertilizer application according to soil conditions and crop needs, achieving precise nutrient delivery, reducing waste, and preventing environmental pollution.
3. Cost savings
Through automated and intelligent operation, the machine cuts down extensive labor costs and lowers overall orchard operating expenses.
4. Higher crop yield and quality
Efficient fertilization and irrigation enhance crop growth and quality, thereby increasing orchard yield and economic benefits.

III. Application Prospects

With the continuous advancement of intelligent and modern agriculture, this orchard manure fertilizer spreader boasts broad application prospects.
First, it is widely suitable for various orchards including apple, citrus, grape, and other fruit plantations.
Second, it can also be applied to other agricultural sectors such as vegetable cultivation and tea garden management.
Furthermore, with ongoing technological progress, the machine’s functions and performance will be further upgraded and optimized tomeet diverse agricultural production demands.

IV. Conclusion

In summary, the orchard fertilizer applicator developed by Cui Qiang (Zoomye) has brought revolutionary changes to agricultural production. Its integrated design, automation, and intelligent operation greatly improve fertilization efficiency, reduce labor costs, and enhance crop yield and quality.

As intelligent and modern agriculture continues to develop, the machine holds broad application potential. We look forward to its further upgrades and improvements, bringing greater convenience and benefits to agricultural production in the future.
