SPoHF

The ultimate goal of project SPoHF (Sustainable Production of Healthy Food) is to create a digital twin, or a virtual plant copy. This copy can be used to determine the optimal settings of all parameters for breeding.


Digital Twin

SPoHF focuses on vegetable and fruit cultivation (greenhouse and open field) as food for humans. To improve the targeted nature of the product quality aspects of vegetables and fruits, individual plants are examined and therefore a digital twin is developed for each plant. 


The monitoring of this plant is therefore done not only on the physical plant but also via a digital twin. By using this digital twin and artificial intelligence, the current conditions of the plant – and thus also the effects of certain measures (for example, watering or additional lighting) – can be simulated to assess future effects. 


Finally, it is also possible to automatically implement such measures and monitor their effects.



Savings

Measures that this project specifically looks at are measures to save energy in regulating the climate, lighting, in pest control and making more accurate use of weather data. To monitor product quality, product samples are analysed before and after the implementation of the measures, both in the laboratory and on-site at the location of the plant.


By using a digital twin and artificial intelligence, the cultivation can focus more on its core tasks: sustainably growing healthy agri- & food products.
