Uses of ICT to the grower1. Record keeping.2. Monitoring the growing environment.3. Computer models.4. Technical information
![Page 15: Elbs unit 1 b491 lesson 12 ict and plant care](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/557a9a04d8b42a9b568b4ab5/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Record keeping
With all production systems, records are essential for
good management. When a crop is planted, what the
inputs have been, when it will be ready for harvest and
how it has been cultivated can all contribute to essential
record keeping.
![Page 16: Elbs unit 1 b491 lesson 12 ict and plant care](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/557a9a04d8b42a9b568b4ab5/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Monitoring the growing environment
Data-loggers can be linked to a PC to record plantenvironmental factors. These might be:□ Light□ Water□ Nutrients□ Temperature of propagators
![Page 17: Elbs unit 1 b491 lesson 12 ict and plant care](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/557a9a04d8b42a9b568b4ab5/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Light
Light sensitive data-loggers record changes inlight intensity onto a PC.This information can thenbe used to turn lighting onand off in a glasshouse orPropagator, thus
maximisingthe necessary light for thegrowing crop.
![Page 18: Elbs unit 1 b491 lesson 12 ict and plant care](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/557a9a04d8b42a9b568b4ab5/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Water and nutrientsData logging sensors in thesoil detect moisture levelsand record these at a PCinterface.This data is then used toprovide information onirrigation, or it can be usedto turn on automaticirrigation systems thatdirectly access the growingcrop. The same could bedone with nutrient levels.
![Page 19: Elbs unit 1 b491 lesson 12 ict and plant care](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/557a9a04d8b42a9b568b4ab5/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Temperature and humidity A data-logging hygrometer measures soil
moisture andhumidity.This information can be used to either execute changes in humidity and temperature, or inform the grower.Carbon dioxide levels can also be monitored by data-loggers.

Computer models
Information on the growing environment is put into a computer and then a programme used to
modelthe outcome for a particular crop.Inputs can be tested before being committed in the field, saving costly mistakes.
![Page 21: Elbs unit 1 b491 lesson 12 ict and plant care](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/557a9a04d8b42a9b568b4ab5/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Technical information
The internet, advisory sites and Manufacturers’ web-sites can be used to gather technical information on caring for a crop.Satellite photos can be used to monitor disease and cropping without walking over growing crops.
![Page 22: Elbs unit 1 b491 lesson 12 ict and plant care](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062513/557a9a04d8b42a9b568b4ab5/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Crops give particular colours when photographed from space.
