This technology is based on the automated production of green lacewings. By integrating this automated system with an intelligent production scheduling system, we have developed a precise predictive model for identifying spatiotemporal hotspots of farmer demands for natural enemies. This approach ensures that green lacewing egg products are stably produced reasonable priced, and environmental friendly, thereby incentivizing farmers to adopt these natural enemy products. Consequently, this stimulates the biological control industry, creates an economically viable supply chain for pesticide alternatives, and aligns with the policy trend of pesticide reduction.
Sustainability | AgricultureThe coffee bean sorting tray developed by this technology enables the automatic selection and synchronous sorting of green coffee beans into multiple tracks, thereby improving bean sorting efficiency. The tray's unique design features buffer columns that prevent coffee beans from clumping together as they enter the multiple tracks. Additionally, dust-fall holes allow dust on the beans to fall through during the sorting process, reducing dust contamination on the beans entering the sorting machine.
Sustainability | AgricultureAn automatic portable detection system for pathogenic bacteria includes a water inlet and outlet device, a miniature mixing device, and a detection chip. Through a micro-pump, sample water and multiple reagents are sequentially injected into the microchip for mixing, generating an analyte solution and initiating a color reaction. The detection chip is responsible for detecting the color depth of the analyte solution, converting it into a corresponding voltage value, and generating a test result upon completion of the color reaction.

Sustainability | Green Energy & EnvironmentThe brown planthopper, a major pest affecting rice crops in Taiwan, particularly during the second cropping season, can cause hopper burn, leading to significant yield losses. This technology aims to address this issue by providing farmers with a timesaving, experience-independent tool for early BPH detection and control. It leverages smartphone cameras to capture rice plant images, which are then analyzed using AI deep learning algorithms to identify BPH characteristics. The technology generates actionable recommendations for effective pest control strategies based on these analyses, forming the foundation of a BPH early warning system.
Sustainability | AgricultureThe cloud-based automated interpretation system with algorithmic assistance for chemicals residue detection, developed by the Agricultural Chemicals Research Institute, Ministry of Agriculture(ACRI), streamlines the analysis of mass spectrometry data. This significantly reduces analysis time. For instance, the "Method of Test for Pesticide Residues in Foods-Multiresidue Analysis (5)", which typically requires 5-10 hours for manual analysis of 20 samples, can now be completed within 10 minutes using this system. The technology also provides an information platform to aid in result interpretation and has the potential for future applications in detecting veterinary chemicals, pharmaceuticals, food additives, heavy metals, and other contaminants, thus greatly enhancing inspection efficiency.

It provides data analysis for milk yield, quality, reproduction, and disease, with features including: 1. Intelligent mobile management. 2. Early identification and warning of mastitis and fever. 3. Automated heat stress-based cooling system activation.
Sustainability | AgricultureScales and insect eggs lodged in the crevices of fruits pose a significant challenge to fruit export quarantine procedures in our country. Traditional removal methods, such as fumigation, detergents, and alcohol washing, disrupt the waxy layer of scales but can negatively impact fruit quality and flavor. High-pressure water washing, while effective, can cause physical damage, reducing the fruit's commercial value. This technology presents a solution by integrating image data analysis with an automated micro-carbonated pulse cleaning system for fruits and vegetables. This approach effectively removes up to 100% of scales without causing any damage to the fruit's texture.
