We hope to develop wearable aids with wide application and flexibility for farmers

As a shift to smart management of agricultural production, information communication, Internet of Things, machine learning and cultivation management technology are integrated and applied to the production of greenhouse vegetables and potted flowers.

In response to the labor shortage and climate change problems, since 2017, the Tea Research and Extension Station has actively developed smart tea farm management technology and worked with Taiwan Tea Cooperation, the biggest tea company in Taiwan, to establish a demonstration field in the tea base in Laopi Farm (about 500 hectares) in Pingtung.

Taiwan Agricultural Research Institute has applied UAVs to assist the sampling of cultivated crop areas for 6 years. UAVs are used to monitor the production dynamics of sensitive crops and investigate the loss due to agricultural disasters.
