I. Core Application: Automatic Feeding System 
On farms, electric actuators serve as crucial components in automatic feeding systems. These systems achieve timed, measured, and targeted feeding of animals by precisely controlling feed dispensing amount, time, and location. Electric actuators, with their efficient and stable linear motion characteristics, are the ideal drive choice for automatic feeding systems. In the system, electric actuators can control the opening and closing of feed troughs, enabling precise control of feed supply. Working in conjunction with sensors and control systems, the feed troughs can be precisely controlled, supplementing and adjusting feed as needed based on animal requirements and farm manager settings, ensuring animals receive sufficient nutrition and appropriate feeding. 

II. Other Important Applications 
Precise Control of Agricultural Machinery: 
In agricultural machinery such as seeders, harvesters, and plant protection machines, electric actuators are used for precise control of various moving parts, such as seeding depth, harvesting blade angle, and spray nozzle flow angle, improving operational efficiency and accuracy. 
Electric actuators can also adjust the operating depth and force of farm implements, achieving centimeter-level adjustments based on soil type and moisture requirements, providing good conditions for seed germination and root growth. 
Greenhouse and Irrigation System Adjustment: 
In greenhouses, electric actuators can control the opening and closing of vents, adjusting the temperature and humidity inside the greenhouse to create a suitable growth environment for plants. 
In irrigation systems, electric actuators can control the on/off and adjustment of irrigation equipment, achieving precise irrigation and improving water resource utilization efficiency. 
Lifting and Adjustment of Agricultural Equipment: 
Electric actuators also play an important role in the lifting and adjustment of agricultural equipment. For example, in mobile agricultural equipment such as tractors, seeders, fertilizer spreaders, combine harvesters, and cultivators, electric actuators are used to precisely control the equipment's movement trajectory and operating depth. 
Electric actuators can also adjust the height and angle of components such as seats and steering wheels on agricultural equipment, improving operator comfort and convenience. 

III. Advantages and Features 
High-Precision Positioning: Electric actuators have high-precision positioning capabilities, achieving millimeter-level error control to meet the precise control needs of agricultural equipment. 
High Efficiency and Energy Saving: Electric actuators consume only a small amount of electricity during operation and only consume energy when movement is required, making them more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly than traditional hydraulic systems. 
Stable and Reliable: Electric actuators have undergone comprehensive testing and verification, demonstrating excellent durability and reliability, enabling stable long-term operation in harsh environments such as high and low temperatures or humidity. 
Simple and Easy to Maintain: Electric actuators have a simple, durable structure and low maintenance costs. They also have safety features such as overload protection and overheat protection to ensure system reliability. 

In summary, the application of electric actuators in agriculture is diverse and extensive. Their high precision, high efficiency and energy saving, stability and reliability, and simple maintenance make them key components for improving agricultural production efficiency and accuracy. With the continuous advancement of agricultural modernization and intelligence, the application prospects of electric actuators in agriculture will be even broader.
