The plant lodging resistance tester is a key factor in determining the lodging resistance of crops. The lodging of plants such as corn, sorghum, and tobacco poses significant challenges for mechanical harvesting, resulting in substantial waste. Additionally, lodged crops suffer from insufficient sunlight exposure, severely limiting their yield potential. Conducting in-vivo measurements of crop stems at various growth stages, followed by statistical analysis of population data based on the correlation between stem fiber layer bending resistance and lodging resistance, holds significant implications for crop cultivation and breeding.
