Regular control of diseases and pests is crucial for maximizing cauliflower yield and quality. Spray application of chemical pesticides causes environmental pollution, pesticide residue accumulation, and is labor-intensive. To address these challenges, we developed an unmanned plant protection device integrating ozone sterilization, light traps, and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies. Installed in a greenhouse, the device included an ozone generator, high-speed fan, and insect traps. It was remotely controlled via a mobile app for real-time adjustments to ozone release, fan speed, trap lamp operation, environmental data collection, and system monitoring. Greenhouse experiments tested the... More >

This editorial highlights the importance of establishing the journal Digital Intelligence in Agriculture and the typical applications of digital intelligence technology in agriculture such as planting industry, forestry, animal husbandry, and fishery. Digital intelligence technology is driving global agriculture towards a new stage of smart agriculture characterized by "data-driven and intelligent decision-making". Its core is to achieve comprehensive empowerment of agricultural production, operation, management, and services through technologies such as the Internet of Things, big data, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and blockchain.
