The messages of crop water deficit, soil moisture and field meteorology are the fundamental data to meet the needs of water saving, good quality and high yield in modern field irrigation management. Above all, it is very important to obtain these data at the same step in real time. A field monitoring system in real-time was presented which could support the data of crop canopy temperature, environment message and soil moisture at 1 h interval. It was powered by solar panel and controlled with a microprocessor to manage the data collection and storage.The configured sensors included infrared temperature, air temperature and humidity, soil water content, soil water potential and temperature. The infrared temperature sensor was installed at the end of the cantilever arm fitted on the upright stainless steel rod. It had a 45° inclination angle of the cantilever arm to scan the temperature of underlying surface. Each time, it collected multiple spot at 36° interval above the crop canopy and went back to the original location. Therefore, the average value of the canopy temperature would be more precise than that of the single detection. The rapid locking device could adjust the cantilever arm and sensors to the suitable position following the stainless steel rod, according to the need in different crop growth seasons. After the analysis of the monitoring data, all of these could describe the refined crop actual circumstance in the field and they can be used in irrigation decision-making and irrigation management. Moreover, how to separate reasonably the surface temperature occurred from infrared data scanned and determine the dependable threshold values of irrigation decision-making indexes, are the key points in the next step.
