Which team will develop the best algorithm to enable a greenhouse to grow dwarf tomatoes independently?

That is the focus of this year's Autonomous Greenhouse Challenge, a competition organised by the Wageningen University & Research (WUR) Greenhouse Horticulture business unit. After the first part of the Challenge, five teams remain in the competition. The team that achieves the most lucrative harvest of dwarf tomatoes by mid-December using their algorithm will be the winners. Throughout the summer, the teams are working on their algorithm that will control the greenhouse from September.
