JBC Group cooperates to develop in the field of agriculture with Korean enterprises


In the past, in order to grow crops, Korean farmers had to run out to the garden, even at midnight, to check the crops with their own eyes, and adjust parameters such as temperature and humidity of the plastic garden. Now, thanks to the application of the Internet of Things, the smart farming model in Korea helps people simplify all processes and improve efficiency.

Smart farm technology was born, Korean farmers just need to relax in bed and solve everything with a mobile phone.

Here, plants are cared for according to a closed scientific process. The sensor will measure soil and air moisture, as well as analyze the fertilizer needs of the plants, the amount of water to be irrigated, or the solution to pest problems. With this model, the data will be transmitted to a smartphone or computer, helping farmers control and adjust the parameters of the gardener in real time.

Pungil Farm in Cheonan-si City, Chungcheongnam-do Province is one of the leading smart farms in Korea. It has a management room over 10,000 m2. Using smart agriculture, the farm owner has equipped a temperature and humidity control system in the pig house, and equipped with fire detection technology. The smart farming system here also includes devices and apps to keep the feed fresh, and the custodians are always aware of the food's status through its own software. “The smart farm system allows me to quickly decide what kind of feed to feed, how many calving sows and the number of piglets. About 70% of the cost of running a farm is to buy pet food. Because the system analyzes the amount of food accurately, I can cut unnecessary expenses,”
