Abstract

Problems involving agricultural know-how can be addressed using information and communications technology (ICT). For example, ICT can reduce the risk that know-how may be lost due to increasing age of agricultural workers. Also, valuable fruits that require sensitive environmental control can be monitored with ICT. Data collection, collation, and storage will enable us to convert tacit knowledge into formalized algorithms. We developed a remote information sensing system using a dense sensor network in a melon hothouse, in cooperation with the Prefectural Research Institute. Using a web interface enabling access to data and photographs, we expect that farmers will be able to transfer tacit knowledge into formalized information.
