Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the development of modern agriculture, artificial intelligence has achieved initial results in the field of horticulture, and the progress of its research and application continues to promote the development of precision agriculture. The integrated application of artificial intelligence has involved many links such as monitoring, forecasting, decision-making and execution, forming an intelligent monitoring and management system. Although the application of artificial intelligence in digital gardening is promising, the challenges cannot be ignored.
This Special Issue titled "Applied Artificial Intelligence in Digital Horticulture: Practices and Innovations" focuses on exploring the application and innovation of artificial intelligence technology in the field of digital horticulture, aiming to promote the progress and sustainable development of agricultural science and technology. This Special Issue introduces the technological innovations of artificial intelligence in plant growth monitoring, automatic management, precision irrigation, non-destructive testing and evaluation of fruit and vegetable quality, intelligent perception control systems and cloud platform construction. The journal encourages original research across disciplines, with a particular emphasis on research methods that combine theory and practice. Scholars from all walks of life are welcome to contribute to promote the development of artificial intelligence in digital horticulture, in order to achieve an efficient and intelligent agricultural production system.
