Chinese solar greenhouse (CSG) is an artificially constructed agricultural facility that provides a suitable environment for crop growth. However, the imbalanced temperature and humidity phenomenon occurring in greenhouse during summer greatly affects crop yield. This article proposes the application of solar radiation fuzzy adaptive system in greenhouse to address this issue. The design process includes hardware and algorithm design. The hardware part involves designing the travel distance of the curtain machine and the film winding machine, laying out the temperature and humidity sensors, and designing the control cabinet. The algorithm is optimized based on fuzzy control theory, data acquisition module consists of temperature and humidity sensors, executive components include the curtain machine and the film winding machine, and the data transmission, storage and feedback module consists of the control cabinet and the cloud-based database. These form an adaptive system, which will be subjected to a 10-day comparative experiment. The experimental results showed that in region 3, the peak value of temperature reduction in the third layer during the daytime was 26.2 °C, and the humidity increased by a maximum of 31.5 %. In region 2, the temperature increased by a maximum of 4.2 °C during the nighttime in the second layer, and the humidity decreased by 4.1 °C. Introduction of adaptive systems can play an important role in maintaining microclimate temperature and humidity in summer.
