Summary: To mitigate yield reduction due to frost, this research proposes an intelligent frost prediction system to provide predictions with high temporal resolutions. Utilising these predictions, a cyber-physical system (CPS) could be built to control existing protection methods. The CPS would connect the frost prediction intelligence with protection actuators to achieve automated smart farming. This is a Food Agility CRC Scholarship for Ian Zhou.
