🌱 Monogerm vs. Multigerm - How AI is Revolutionizing Sugar Beet Farming 🌱

Seed quality significantly affects crop yield and production costs in sugar beet farming, yet traditional methods for sorting monogerm and multigerm seeds are inefficient and lead to seed loss—how can AI technology be leveraged to optimize seed classification and improve productivity?

Imagine you have two kinds of seeds.

One that grows into one plant (monogerm).

Another that can grow into many plants all crowded together (multigerm).

Sugar beet farmers want each seed to grow into just one plant so they have space to grow big and strong.

But sorting these seeds is hard.

Because they look very similar 🤯

If too many multigerm seeds are planted, it makes it harder for the plants to grow well, and the farmer has to do extra work to fix it.
