A power-saving monitoring system and green network to control daily processes on a farm are the focus of Ronnie’s research. This involves applying computer intelligence to optimise organic circuit design. By implanting organic circuitry into trees and plants, bioelectricity could be extracted as alternative energy. This would help monitor fertiliser concentrations and adjust to the NPK (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium) needs of crops so that excess fertilisers will not be deposited to the soil. more: Ronnie CONCEPCION II.
