TH12469U - Internet-based farm management system - Google Patents

Abstract

The new request improves the internet-based farm management system. The server will process and record data into a database when farmers register and complete their information. Farmers will see essential farming information such as farming duration, activities needed at each stage, and required materials. Farmers can manage their farms through this application. Data will be calculated based on each farmer's area, and the displayed information will be processed according to various relevant factors. Farmers can use the application normally. The server will process data from past and present events, as well as current situation data. The server will generate potential future activities or calculations to update the displayed information to best suit each farmer.

Claims (8)

New request updated. 1. An internet-based farm management system comprises a data display/recording method for users, a server for processing, and a database for storing and processing data. A key feature is that the data received into the database includes farmer information, environmental data measured by sensors installed on the farm to monitor various environmental parameters and send this data to the farm management system, and data from the server database and external databases. This data is then processed and displayed to users via the internet. 2. An internet-based farm management system, as described in point 1, which processes data and displays at least one of the following: an agricultural calendar report, a production cost calculation report, or a sales plan report tailored specifically to each farmer. 3. An internet-based farm management system, as described in points 1-2, which also includes methods for automated farm control and methods for selecting service providers. 4. The internet-based farm management system described in point 2 reports an agricultural calendar, processes and analyzes data when farmers record information including basic farmer data, crop type and variety planted. The farm management system sends farmer GPS data to a server, which processes the farmer's data and environmental information stored in the database. The server then sends the agricultural calendar data back to the farm management system. 5. The internet-based farm management system mentioned in point 2, which provides production cost reports, calculates the cost of crops grown on farms. This allows farmers to estimate their farm's production costs in advance, enabling them to plan and manage their farm expenses most efficiently. 6. The internet-based farm management system, as described in point 2, reports sales plans for agricultural produce. The system estimates farm yield, allowing farmers to know the time required from planting to harvest and plan their sales in advance. The server retrieves data from the database and displays the types and varieties of crops grown at the time of production, showing which products are available for sale. When farmers want to sell their produce, they create a sales listing through the farm management system, allowing other users to pre-order and purchase their products, maximizing farm income. 7. The internet-based farm management system described in point 1 includes sensors: a temperature sensor to send temperature data to the system for processing and controlling water supply on the farm; a pressure sensor to send atmospheric pressure data to the system to calculate the probability of rainfall; if there is a chance of rain, the system will automatically reduce water supply to the plots; a light sensor to send light data to the system; a soil moisture tester to measure soil moisture on the farm; a pH tester to measure pH levels on the farm; and a camera to record images. 8. The internet-based farm management system described in point 1 also includes: a monitor for displaying farm images via the internet, allowing farmers to plan and monitor their farm comprehensively without having to be physically present; an image processing system for capturing farm images from cameras and sending the data to the system for analysis and farm management planning; and a sprinkler system that automatically controls the on/off timing of sprinklers based on the age or needs of the plants via the system, or can be manually operated by the farmer. The sprinkler system also includes components for dispensing water, insecticides, pesticides, and liquid fertilizers, as well as water pumps for automatically pumping water in and out of the farm according to the plant's age.
