Abstract

To solve the problems of the magnitude of an initial cost burden, the uniformity of a subsidy system, continuous support shortage after introduction, non-correlation with external funding, or the like in agriculture support robot introduction.SOLUTION: According to the present invention, an agriculture support system is provided, which simultaneously achieves individual optimal introduction support and continuous support after introduction, and dissemination promotion for an entire local community by providing: a reward-linked subsidy structure which can dynamically adjust a subsidy amount and a refund condition on the basis of a plurality of elements, such as an operation performance, a harvesting result, a degree of work contribution and a use frequency; a support selection mechanism for automatically determining an introduction priority on the basis of local characteristics and farmer attributes; support improvement means for recording use information in a cloud and optimizing a continuous support policy; and further, a subsidy-linked structure which can be linked to external funding such as a subsidy, grants, and sponsor support.SELECTED DRAWING: None

Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a support structure that enables flexible subsidies and reward returns according to operational performance and support content when introducing agricultural support robots or AI character terminals, and in particular to an agricultural support system that includes subsidies for introduction costs, automatic judgment, optimization of ongoing support, and subsidy linkage. [Background technology]

[0002] Introducing robots into agricultural fields requires high initial costs, placing a heavy burden on small-scale farmers and elderly farmers in particular. Furthermore, existing subsidy systems are one-size-fits-all, making it difficult to flexibly design subsidies that take into account operational performance, regional characteristics, and post-implementation usage. This is one of the factors hindering the sustainable adoption of new technologies. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] WO2006063314A3 discloses a system for automatically controlling pruning and harvesting using a visual recognition type agricultural robot. [Patent Document 2] US20130204437A1 discloses an autonomous agricultural robot that uses image recognition and a control module, but does not include an introduction subsidy system or support determination means. [Patent Document 3] US10846843B2 discloses a farmland monitoring and analysis platform based on satellite and UAV images, but does not include mechanisms for assisting with the introduction of support robots or supporting cloud collaboration. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] The present invention aims to provide a new support system that reduces the cost burden of introducing agricultural support robots, automatically selects introduction priorities, optimizes ongoing support, and enables flexible integration with subsidy systems. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] The present invention constitutes an agricultural support system that includes a reward-linked subsidy calculation means that dynamically calculates the subsidy amount and repayment conditions based on operating performance, harvest volume, and revenue information when introducing agricultural support robots, a means for automatically determining the priority of introduction according to the region and farmer attributes, a support improvement module that transmits usage status to the cloud to optimize support policies, and a structure that implements subsidies in cooperation with external funds from the national government, local governments, private organizations, etc. [Effects of the Invention]

[0006] This invention allows for objective and flexible support for the introduction of agricultural robots, enabling support based on each farmer's economic situation and track record. This lowers the barrier to adoption, promotes continued use after adoption, and automatically optimizes public and sponsor support through collaboration with external funding, which is expected to have a dissemination effect throughout the region. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0007] In one embodiment, when farmers introduce agricultural support robots, the cloud continuously stores information such as work history, crop yield, and frequency of use, and the support system automatically optimizes subsidy amounts and payment deferral conditions based on this data. Subsidies and grants are linked to externally linked funding information, both from the government and private sector, simplifying farmers' application procedures and reducing their financial burden at the same time.

Claims

1. An agricultural support system that has an introduction support structure that allows for subsidized or deferred introduction costs when introducing agricultural support robots or AI character control terminals based on the robot's operational performance, work support content, harvest volume, frequency of use, etc.

2. 2. The agricultural support system according to claim 1, wherein the introduction support structure is provided with a remuneration-linked subsidy calculation means that dynamically adjusts the subsidy rate or repayment conditions according to the profits from the use of the robot, the amount of sales of the crops, the amount of work contribution, etc.

3. 3. The agricultural support system according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that it includes a determination means for automatically determining the priority of introduction or allocation of subsidy quotas based on multiple parameters such as the economic situation, age group, cultivated items, and regional characteristics of the farmer.

4. An agricultural support operation improvement system, characterized in that, in the agricultural support system described in any one of claims 1 to 3, the introduced agricultural support robot or AI character terminal transmits usage status and work records to the cloud, and support policies are continuously optimized based on the relevant information.

5. 5. An agricultural support system according to any one of claims 1 to 4, wherein the introduction support and remuneration calculation are carried out in cooperation with external funds from the national government, local governments, private organizations, etc., and includes a support cooperation structure that can utilize subsidies, grants, sponsorship fees, etc. as sources of funds.
