  Abstract

Fruit thinning is one of the most important tasks in cultivating crops and if we do not fruit thinning on time, we will not be able to get high-quality fruit. Recently, despite the growing number of studies on the application of AI (Artificial Intelligence) to agriculture, research on fruit thinning related automation is still insufficient. Therefore, a study was conducted to compare the effects of the robot-based fruit thinning method and the traditional fruit thinning method on fruit growth as a basic experiment for fruit thinning automation. To recognize tomatoes as a robot, the tomato was learned using the YOLOv3 object recognition algorithm. The highest accuracy of the model was obtained 92.23%. Robotic fruit thinning method removed two fruit according to the recognition accuracy and recognized first, and the traditional method removed the innermost and outermost fruit of the stem. 10 flower clusters were selected for each, and then measurements were continued until there was color change for each. In result when the size of the two experiments at the time of color change was compared through the T-test equal variance test, the variance of the two groups was not considered to be different at the significance level of 0.05.
