AI Floral Pathway Smart Production and Marketing Technology for Protected Floriculture
Technology Introduction:
With intelligence and sustainability at its core, AI Floral Pathway integrates four key pillars: superior varieties, protected cultivation, smart management, and export biosecurity. By incorporating artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), digital management, and circular resource utilization, it establishes an end-to-end smart production and marketing system for protected floriculture, linking farms with international markets. Beginning with the breeding of high-quality flower varieties that meet market demands, the system combines protected cultivation technologies—including alternative circular growing media and smart bottom irrigation—to provide a solid foundation for stable production. It further incorporates smart management technologies such as AI-based image recognition, crop growth monitoring, integrated production and marketing management platforms, carbon footprint assessment, and flowering quality prediction, enabling precise and sustainable decision-making. In addition, it integrates end-to-end export biosecurity management, post-harvest preservation, and international certification to enhance the quality of domestically produced flowers, strengthen export supply resilience, and improve competitiveness in international markets.
