- AI-assisted decision support system optimizes pruning and fruit thinning plans
- Real-time microclimate regulation via IoT sensors to improve quality
- Digital twin simulates the impact of different management strategies on production
- Intuitive judgment and experience-based pruning of grapevine growth status
- On-site coordination and communication with seasonal workers
- Adaptability to handle unexpected events such as sudden weather and pests.
- Specialized knowledge in organic/biodynamic farming techniques
- Operation and data interpretation of agricultural IoT devices
- Drone piloting and image analysis
- Use of precision agriculture software (e.g., GIS, variable rate fertilization systems)
- Basic data analysis and Excel/Python scripting.
