Andrea Farm is a cricket cultivation production partner of PT. TOURISM DUTANEGERI BERDIKARI. Activities in the form of implementing a Cricket Cultivation Media Control and Monitoring system to increase Cricket Cultivation Productivity. The event was attended by partners or cricket breeders, local residents, Polines students and Polines lecturers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chair of the Polines Service Team, Sri Kusumastuti, ST, M.Eng., said "The Era of Digitalization provides a great opportunity to increase productivity and efficiency in various sectors, especially in the livestock sector. "By implementing digital technology in cricket farms, cricket farmers can monitor and manage their cultivation conditions more effectively, optimize the right cultivation media conditions, and prevent problems more quickly." he explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In an era of increasingly sophisticated agriculture, the Internet of Things (IoT) has proven itself as a key element in productive cricket cultivation. Through a network of sensors and connected devices, cricket farmers can now monitor and control various aspects of the cultivation environment in real-time, including temperature , humidity, and air quality.Data collected from these sensors enables in-depth analysis and intelligent decision making, maximizing productivity and maintaining the quality of the crickets produced. Thus, IoT brings a revolution in cricket cultivation, resulting in higher yields and increasing efficiency, which is the key to success in this growing industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This service activity begins with a presentation regarding the development of Internet of Things Technology in the current Digital Era. This was then followed by the implementation of the Cricket Cultivation Monitoring System Tool on the Cricket Cultivation Media Shelf at Andrea Farm.
