Here, background technology related to the present invention is provided, and these do not necessarily mean known technology (This section provides background information related to the present disclosure which is not necessarily prior art).

Until a generation ago, farming that grows crops has been classified as one of the representative labor-intensive industries. This is because even if many jobs were mechanized, not only could the machine be operated, but all jobs could not be 100% mechanized.

In addition, agricultural technology is difficult to mechanize or automate by standardizing because of the large influence of climate.

However, the recent agricultural industry is recognized as one of the national key industries that secures'food' for all members of society. In particular, in Korea, it is an industry that is subject to protection and desperately needs self-sufficiency.

Recently, with the development of mechanical devices and software technologies, various smart farm systems have been introduced and are used in various forms.

As various high-performance sensing devices have been miniaturized and manufacturing costs have decreased, it is possible to check the growth of crops and the cropping environment even if the cultivator is not directly in the field.

By using various automated cultivation equipment and facility equipment, it is possible to greatly reduce the physical time required for manual work for crop cultivation work.

In addition, various types of wired/wireless communication networks have been remarkably developed, making it possible to use a high-speed two-way communication system. The cultivator can remotely sense the situation of the cultivated land, and operate or control various cultivation equipment or facility equipment.

However, in the conventional smart farm operating system, it is a client (Client)-server (Server) computing method.

It is a simple structure in which a client, a cultivator, connects to a server that controls a sensing device or cultivation equipment and facility equipment.

In addition, the current smart farm operation system has a problem in that production history information is not documented and managed.

That is, the operating history of the above-described various sensing devices, cultivation equipment, and facility equipment is production history information generated during the production process of crops or agricultural products.

It is difficult to uniformize agricultural products. No matter how much the factory-style cultivation method is applied, it is difficult to ensure uniformity like industrial products manufactured by machines.

Agricultural products, no matter how small, have to go through a growth process, and this growth process takes at least a few months, or a year, of physical time. Therefore, it is difficult to apply and test various production methods to derive an optimal production method.

The most effective way to solve this problem is to systematically store and manage the above-described production history information.

In other words, there is a need for a new smart farm operation system that can continuously develop and utilize agricultural technology by using advanced information and communication technology and analysis technology.
