Farmers in Spain will predict garden yields using artificial intelligence

Tridge summary

A collaboration between a British institute and researchers from Chile and Spain has led to the development of an artificial intelligence (AI) system to improve yield prediction in peach orchards. The AI system, which counts and estimates the number of tree flowers, achieves a 90% accuracy rate, significantly higher than conventional counting methods. The system uses images from standard smartphones to identify flowers, including those that are partially hidden. The AI's accuracy will be evaluated for the peach harvest in September, with potential future applications for other fruits such as apples, pears, and cherries.

In Spain, an artificial intelligence (AI) system used in peach orchards to count and estimate the number of tree flowers was found to be 90% accurate. This is significantly higher than conventional counting, where the accuracy is only 50-70%, writes EastFruit. Thus, in Spain they are testing AI that should predict the yield of trees by counting flowers. Artificial intelligence technology is a joint development of a British institute together with researchers from Chile and Spain, learning to predict the yield of fruit trees several months in advance.
