Core Insights - The article highlights the efficiency and effectiveness of smart agriculture in tomato harvesting and transportation, showcasing a system that integrates technology for improved productivity and quality control [1][2]. Group 1: Smart Greenhouse Operations - The smart greenhouse spans 55 acres and cultivates approximately 71,000 tomato plants, utilizing sensors and big data to monitor fruit ripeness and create a "ripeness map" for precise harvesting [2]. - The system has achieved a product qualification rate exceeding 98%, with a 40% increase in single-plant yield and a 50% boost in labor efficiency, while post-harvest loss rates have been reduced to 5% [2]. Group 2: Transportation Efficiency - The dedicated transport route for the harvesting vehicle is designed to minimize loss, featuring a non-slip surface and optimized curves and slopes for stable travel [6]. - The internal damage rate during transport is below 2%, a 15 percentage point improvement over traditional methods, with the vehicle capable of making 15 trips per day, transporting up to 9,000 pounds, and achieving a 60% efficiency increase compared to manual labor [6]. Group 3: Loading and Market Readiness - Upon arrival at the loading area, workers follow strict layering and weight control standards, ensuring each truck is loaded with a maximum of 600 pounds, with monitoring throughout the loading process for traceability [9]. - Tomatoes are shipped within 12 hours of harvesting, with an average daily shipment of 2,000 pounds, exceeding 5,000 pounds during peak seasons, covering 13 cities [10]. Group 4: Quality Control and Customer Satisfaction - The smart system continuously adjusts temperature, humidity, light, and nutrient levels, stabilizing the average weight of each tomato at 14 grams and sugar content above 9° Brix, ensuring uniform quality [12]. - Customer satisfaction and repurchase rates for the tomatoes exceed 80%, demonstrating the system's effectiveness in scaling and modernizing facility agriculture [12].
