Automatisation Orisha inc.

$75,000.00

ARP - Development of a virtual agronomist.

FY 2022-23 · 2023-01-09

Summary
To be profitable in the greenhouse, vegetable growers must acquire knowledge on a multitude of technical subjects. Unfortunately, theoretical knowledge is difficult to apply in the field. Currently, growers acquire knowledge through 20 years of trial and error. To increase productivity from day one, the firm will develop a virtual expert who will support the grower directly in the greenhouse. By taking advantage of the automation system, it will develop control strategies that give the grower the ability to use scientific knowledge to take action. These tools will allow him to reduce diseases in winter production, optimize growth and balance the growth of the plant.

Description (French)
Pour être profitables en serre, les maraîchers doivent acquérir un savoir sur une multitude de sujets techniques. Malheureusement, les connaissances théoriques sont difficiles à appliquer sur le terrain. Présentement, les producteurs acquièrent le savoir sur 20 ans d’essai-erreur. Pour augmenter la productivité dès le jour 1, l'entreprise développera un expert virtuel qui supportera le producteur directement dans sa serre. En profitant du système d’automatisation, elle développera des stratégies de contrôle donnant au producteur la capacité d’utiliser le savoir scientifique pour prendre action. Ces outils lui permettront de réduire les maladies en production hivernale, d’optimiser la croissance et d’équilibrer la croissance du plant.
