Teams tackle autonomous dwarf tomato cultivation
Added on 04 September 2024
In the first phase of the competition, the teams worked hard on developing advanced algorithms. Now, they get to apply that knowledge practically in their own greenhouse compartment in Bleiswijk. Using sensors and artificial intelligence, the teams meticulously control temperature, light, humidity, and CO2 to create the optimal growth conditions for the tomato plants. All of this is done entirely automatically and as sustainably as possible. The ultimate goal is to achieve the highest net profit in a sustainable manner. Extra points can be earned by making the right decisions regarding biological pest control, based on digital information from the greenhouse. The team with the most points will be crowned the winner of the Autonomous Greenhouse Challenge 2024.
