[0101] Through IoT devices and sensors, real-time data on farmland is collected and conditions such as soil moisture, temperature, and nutrient levels are monitored.

[0102] If an abnormality is detected, an alert is immediately generated and the user is notified of the abnormality and the countermeasures to be taken.

[0103] Device:

[0104] An alert notification is displayed to the user, prompting them to take the necessary action.

[0105] Step 8:

[0106] server:

[0107] The online platform provides users with efficient agricultural techniques and know-how, and updates information as new techniques and methods are released.

[0108] User:

[0109] Participants learn agricultural know-how and techniques provided on the platform and apply them to their actual agricultural work.

[0110] Step 9:

[0111] server:

[0112] Plan and execute harvest operations when crops reach harvest stage.

[0113] Ship the harvested crops to market and collect sales data.

[0114] Step 10:

[0268] Step 1:

[0269] Collecting market analysis data

[0270] The server scrapes and collects market analysis data such as crop prices, consumption, and import / export volumes from market information sites and published statistical reports on the Internet. To do this, a web scraping tool (BeautifulSoup, Selenium, etc.) is used to extract and format data from the target sites. The input is a list of URLs for market information sites, and the output is the collected market analysis data.

[0271] Step 2:

[0272] Climate analysis data collection

[0273] The server collects weather data such as temperature, precipitation, and sunshine hours using meteorological agencies and APIs (OpenWeatherMap, WeatherStack). This data is used to determine the climate conditions in various locations. It analyzes the raw data obtained from the API and formats it as needed. The input is the API request, and the output is the climate analysis data.

[0274] Step 3:

[0275] Data analysis and crop recommendation identification

[0276] The server inputs the collected market analysis data and climate analysis data into a generative artificial intelligence (AI model), which then uses this data to predict crop demand and identify optimal cultivation areas.To do this, Python's Pandas and Numpy libraries are used to preprocess the data and generate prompt statements to be input into the AI ​​model.The inputs are market analysis data and climate analysis data, and the output is crop demand predictions and optimal cultivation areas.

[0277] Step 4:

[0278] Providing market and climate analysis data

[0279] The server provides market and climate analysis data reports via smartphones, smart glasses, and head-mounted displays. To quickly display data that requires real-time updates, React Native (for smartphones) and Unity (for VR / AR) are used. The input is the results of data analysis, and the output is a report displayed on the user's device.

[0280] Step 5:

[0281] Investment project creation and management

[0282] Users select investment crops and cultivation areas based on the data they provide. The server receives the user's selection results, generates specific investment projects, and formulates investment plans. This information is stored on a dedicated management platform for progress management. The input is the user's investment selection information, and the output is the generated investment project.

[0283] Step 6:

[0284] Farm monitoring and real-time notifications

[0285] The server uses IoT devices (Arduino, Raspberry Pi) and sensors to collect farmland data in real time and monitor the situation. If soil moisture, temperature, nutrient levels, etc. are outside of acceptable ranges, the server generates an alert and notifies the user device. The input is real-time data from the IoT device, and the output is a notification to the user.

[0286] Step 7:

[0289] Step 8:

[0290] Managing harvesting, sales and profit sharing

[0291] When the crops reach the harvesting period, the server plans and manages the harvesting work and arranges for shipment to the market. If any sales profits are earned, they are distributed to the users and the profit details are notified to the user devices. The input is harvest and sales data, and the output is a profit distribution notification to the users.

[0292] This allows users to efficiently learn about agricultural techniques while receiving interactive, real-time data, and makes it easier to keep track of the progress of investment projects in real time.

[0293] Furthermore, an emotion engine that estimates the user's emotion may be combined. That is, the identification processing unit 290 may estimate the user's emotion using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotion.

[0294] This invention is a system that combines generative artificial intelligence with an emotion engine to recognize and analyze user emotions, thereby providing more effective investment and agricultural support. This system collects market analysis data and climate analysis data, forecasts crop demand and supply, and identifies optimal cultivation areas and crops to provide to users. It also accepts user investment decisions, selects farmland, creates investment projects, and manages the process from harvesting to sales and profit distribution. It also uses the emotion engine to analyze user emotions and provide appropriate information and support.

Climate analysis data is obtained by collecting weather information such as temperature, precipitation, and sunshine hours through meteorological agencies and APIs. The server analyzes the data collected in this way to forecast crop demand and identify optimal cultivation areas.

[0298] Specific examples

[0299] For example, the server may detect that the market price of tomatoes is on the rise this year, and determine from regional weather data that a certain region is suitable for growing tomatoes. Based on this information, the server may recommend growing tomatoes to the user.

[0300] Use of emotion engine

[0301] server

[0302] The emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions in real time by analyzing user input, past activity data, and even biometric information (e.g., facial expressions and tone of voice collected through a camera or microphone) to determine the user's emotional state.

[0303] User

[0304] If the sentiment engine determines that a customer is motivated to invest, the system will provide more detailed investment information and success stories to encourage investment activity. On the other hand, if a customer is in a state of stress or has doubts, the system will provide risk information and supportive messages.

[0305] Specific examples

[0306] If a user expresses interest in growing tomatoes but is nervous about investing, the sentiment engine will detect that and provide information about past success stories and risk mitigation strategies.

[0307] Investment project creation and management

[0308] User

[0309] The user uses the terminal to review the provided information and select the crops and farmland to invest in. Once the user's investment decision is sent to the server, the server generates an investment project and formulates a management plan for the selected farmland.

[0310] Specific examples

[0324] Harvesting, selling, and profit sharing

[0325] server

[0326] When the crops reach the harvesting period, the system plans and executes the harvesting work, delivers the harvested crops to the market, and tally up the sales profits and distribute them to users.

[0327] Terminal

[0328] Users can view the profits distributed through their accounts.

[0329] Specific examples

[0330] For example, when the tomato harvest is completed and a profit of 200,000 yen is earned from sales, a portion of that profit is transferred to the user's account and the user is notified that the profit distribution has been completed.

[0331] In this way, the present invention utilizes generative AI and an emotion engine to streamline various agricultural processes and provide an environment in which individual investors can easily enter the agricultural industry. The introduction of an emotion engine makes it possible to provide information and support suited to the user's psychological state, thereby improving the effectiveness of investment activities and agricultural management.

[0332] The processing flow will be explained below.

[0333] Step 1:

[0334] server:

[0335] Market analysis data is scraped from online agricultural crop price information sites and statistical reports, and data such as crop prices, consumption, and import / export volumes is collected.

[0336] It collects climate analysis data such as temperature, precipitation, and sunshine hours from meteorological agency APIs and public weather databases.

[0337] The collected market analysis data and climate analysis data are stored in a database and prepared for data analysis.

[0338] Step 2:

[0340] Generative artificial intelligence is used to analyze the collected market analysis data and climate analysis data.

[0341] Conduct demand and supply forecasts for crops and identify optimal crops.

[0342] Based on climate analysis data, the optimum cultivation areas for growing crops are identified.

[0343] Based on the analysis results, recommended crops and cultivation areas are determined, and a data format is created to provide the data to users.

[0344] Step 3:

[0345] server:

[0346] The analysis results are sent to a user-facing application.

[0347] Device:

[0348] The analysis results received from the server are displayed to the user, including recommended crops, recommended growing areas, and market demand analysis results.

[0349] The emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions and generates appropriate investment suggestions and support messages.

[0350] Step 4:

[0353] Enter the investment amount in the application and confirm your investment decision.

[0354] Device:

[0355] Data relating to the investment decision is transmitted to a server.

[0356] Step 5:

[0357] server:

[0358] Based on the user's investment decisions, an investment project is generated, including the selected farmland, crops, investment amount, and projected profits.

[0359] Develop a management plan for the farmland and set the required resources and work schedule.

[0360] Using an emotion engine, it analyzes users' emotions and investment motivation, and provides appropriate investment support and information to maintain motivation.

[0361] Specific examples

[0362] If the user decides to invest in tomato cultivation, the server creates a specific cultivation plan and provides the user with predicted profits and risk information.

[0363] Step 6:

[0364] server:

[0365] After the investment project is created, the progress of the project is provided to the user through a user interface.

[0366] Real-time data on farmland is collected through IoT devices and sensors, monitoring soil moisture, temperature, nutrient levels, and more.

[0367] If an abnormality is detected, an alert is generated and notified to the user.

[0368] Device:

[0369] Display project information and alert notifications in your account to prompt you to take necessary action.

[0373] Put new technologies and methods into practice locally.

[0374] Specific examples

[0375] After users learn about irrigation methods for tomato cultivation, they can apply that information to actual farm management and ensure proper water supply.

[0376] Step 8:

[0377] server:

[0378] When the crop reaches harvest time, plan and execute the harvesting operations.

[0379] Ship the harvested crops to market and collect sales data.

[0380] Step 9:

[0381] server:

[0382] Profits from sales are tallied and distributed to users.

[0383] Profit sharing information will be notified to users.

[0384] Device:

[0385] Display the distributed profits in the user's account and notify them when the distribution is complete.

[0386] Specific examples

[0387] For example, when the tomato harvest is completed and a profit of 200,000 yen is earned from sales, a portion of that (for example, 50,000 yen) is transferred to the user's account, and the user is notified that the profit distribution has been completed.

[0388] In this way, the present invention utilizes generative artificial intelligence and an emotion engine to streamline a series of processes, from market analysis, climate analysis, investment plan creation, farmland management, harvesting, sales, and profit distribution, and provides an agricultural support system that provides information and support that adapts to the user's emotions.

[0389] Example 2

[0390] Next, a description will be given of Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart device 14 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[0391] Modern agriculture and investment activities require advanced data analysis and real-time sentiment analysis to be efficient and effective. However, conventional technologies have difficulty integrating agricultural and investment data analysis, making it difficult to provide information and support that takes into account investors' daily emotional states. This has made it difficult for investors to make accurate decisions, often resulting in inefficient agricultural project management.

[0392] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the second embodiment is realized by the following means.

[0393] In this invention, the server includes means for collecting market analysis data using generative artificial intelligence and forecasting crop supply and demand, means for collecting climate analysis data using generative artificial intelligence and identifying optimal cultivation areas, means for presenting users with recommended crops and cultivation areas based on the collected market analysis data and climate analysis data, means for analyzing users' emotional data and providing information and support according to their psychological state, means for accepting users' investment decisions, selecting farmland and creating investment projects, and means for harvesting crops that have reached the harvest stage and shipping them to market and distributing the resulting profits to users. This allows users to receive highly accurate information that takes their emotional state into consideration, enabling more accurate and efficient investment and agricultural project management.

[0394] "Generative AI" is a type of AI technology used to collect, analyze, and predict data, specifically the ability to generate new information and patterns using generative models.

[0395] "Market analysis data" refers to data containing market information such as agricultural product prices, consumption, and import / export volumes, and is used to forecast agricultural supply and demand.

[0396] "Climate analysis data" refers to data containing information about the climate, such as temperature, precipitation, and hours of sunshine, that is used to identify optimal conditions for growing crops.

[0397] "Emotional data" refers to data that reflects the user's psychological state, and refers to information collected based on facial expressions, tone of voice, input content, etc.

[0398] "Agricultural land monitoring" is the process of using IoT devices and sensors to monitor agricultural land environmental data (e.g., soil moisture, temperature, and nutrient levels) in real time and responding if anomalies are detected.

[0399] An "online platform" is a collection of systems or services that can be accessed by users via the internet and that serve as a means of providing efficient agricultural technology and know-how.

[0400] An "investment project" is a planning and management framework generated by a user to invest in a specific crop and farmland, including the entire process from harvesting to sales and profit sharing.

[0401] An "alert" is a warning message that is sent to users when an abnormality is detected during agricultural land monitoring, and is intended to encourage a prompt response.

[0402] A "user interface" is the set of means and tools by which a user interacts with a system or service, allowing them to enter and retrieve information and view project status.

[0403] This invention is a system that combines generative artificial intelligence and an emotion engine, and by recognizing and analyzing the user's emotions, it provides effective investment and agricultural support. This system collects and analyzes various data, and not only provides users with optimal agricultural investment information, but also provides support according to the user's psychological state.

[0404] The server uses generative artificial intelligence (e.g., Google Cloud AI) to collect market analysis data. The market analysis data is obtained by scraping data such as crop prices, consumption, and import / export volumes from online agricultural crop price information websites and published statistical reports. Climate analysis data is also collected from meteorological agencies (e.g., the Japan Meteorological Agency) and APIs (e.g., OpenWeather API) to collect weather information such as temperature, precipitation, and sunshine hours.

[0405] The server integrates collected market analysis data and climate analysis data and analyzes the data using a generative AI model. This makes it possible to forecast crop demand and identify optimal cultivation areas. For example, the server may detect that the market price of tomatoes is on the rise this year, and determine from regional weather data that a certain region is suitable for tomato cultivation. Based on this information, it may recommend tomato cultivation to the user.

[0406] The server then uses an emotion engine (e.g., Azure Cognitive Services' Emotion API) to analyze the user's emotions in real time. It analyzes user input, past activity data, and biometric information collected through the camera and microphone, such as facial expressions and tone of voice, to identify the user's emotional state. For example, if a user expresses interest in growing tomatoes but is feeling anxious, the emotion engine will detect this anxiety and provide information about past success stories and risk mitigation measures.

[0407] The user uses a device (e.g., smartphone or PC) to check the provided information and select the crop and farmland in which to invest. When the user's investment decision is sent to the server, the server creates a specific cultivation plan for the selected farmland and crop as a project and manages it. For example, if the user decides to invest in a tomato cultivation project in a certain region, the server creates a specific cultivation plan based on that information and manages it as a project.

[0408] In addition, the server uses IoT devices (e.g., soil sensors, weather stations) to obtain real-time data on the managed farmland and monitor its condition. It collects data such as soil moisture, temperature, and nutrient levels, and generates alerts to notify users if an abnormality is detected. For example, if soil moisture falls below an appropriate level, the server automatically activates the irrigation system to provide the appropriate amount of water.

[0409] The server uses collected farmland data and market analysis data to provide efficient agricultural techniques and know-how via an online platform (e.g., Moodle). Users can use this platform to learn the latest agricultural techniques and apply them to their own work. For example, they can learn the optimal planting spacing and fertilization schedule for tomatoes on the platform and then put it into practice in the field.

[0410] When the crops reach harvest time, the server plans and executes the harvesting work and ships the harvested crops to market. The sales profits are tallied and distributed to users. Through the terminal, users can check their own accounts and confirm the distributed profits. For example, if the tomato harvest is complete and profits from sales are 200,000 yen, a portion of that will be transferred to the user's account and the user will be notified that the profit distribution has been completed.

[0411] In this way, the present invention utilizes generative AI and an emotion engine to streamline various agricultural processes and provide an environment in which individual investors can easily enter the agricultural industry. The introduction of an emotion engine makes it possible to provide information and support suited to the user's psychological state, thereby improving the effectiveness of investment activities and agricultural management.

[0412] Examples of specific prompts include the following:

[0413] 1. "Collect current market prices and consumption of tomatoes"

[0414] 2. "Collect climate data for the past year for a certain region."

[0415] 3. "If a user is interested in growing tomatoes, which areas are suitable for growing them?"

[0433] Output: Demand forecast results and identification of optimal growing areas.

[0434] Specific operation: The server inputs the integrated data into an AI model and performs demand forecasting. For example, based on the collected market price of tomatoes and climate data for a certain region, it predicts that "a certain region is suitable for tomato cultivation."

[0435] Step 4: Analyzing user emotions with the emotion engine

[0436] server

[0437] The server uses an emotion engine (e.g., Azure Cognitive Services' Emotion API) to analyze the user's emotion data in real time.

[0438] Input: User input data, facial expression data, voice data, etc.

[0439] Output: Information about the user's emotional state.

[0440] Specific operation: The server analyzes facial expressions, tone of voice, and input from the user collected through the camera and microphone to determine the user's current emotional state. For example, if a user inputs "I feel anxious" about investing, the server analyzes this and provides appropriate support information.

[0441] Step 5: User investment decision and project creation

[0442] User

[0443] Users use the terminal to make investment decisions based on analysis results and advice.

[0444] Input: Prediction data and sentiment analysis results provided by the server.

[0445] Output: Submission of investment decision.

[0446] Specific operation: The user looks at the analysis results provided (for example, the best region for tomato cultivation), decides on an investment, and sends a message to the server such as "Invest in a tomato cultivation project in region X."

[0447] Step 6: Farm monitoring

[0448] server

[0449] The server collects real-time data on the farmland through IoT devices and sensors and monitors its condition.

[0450] Input: Data from IoT sensors (e.g. soil moisture, temperature, nutrient levels).

[0451] Output: Real-time monitoring data and abnormal alerts.

[0452] Specific operation: The server analyzes data sent from the sensors in real time, and if an abnormality is detected, it automatically starts the irrigation system and sends an alert to the user.

[0462] Inputs: Quantity of crop harvested and sale price.

[0463] Output: Profit sharing status.

[0464] Specific operation: After the harvest is completed, the server automatically calculates the sales profit and transfers it to the user's account. For example, if the tomato harvest is completed and the sales profit is 200,000 yen, it will be distributed to each user and notified.

[0465] (Application example 2)

[0466] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart device 14 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[0467] In recent years, the agricultural sector has seen a demand for systems that utilize market and climate analysis data to forecast crop demand and supply and identify optimal cultivation areas. Furthermore, there is a need for methods to optimize agricultural product sales strategies based on consumer preferences and emotions, support investment decisions, and ensure profits. However, existing systems do not adequately analyze users' emotions and preferences, and recommend agricultural products and propose sales strategies that are tailored to the user's psychological state. Therefore, an effective system is needed to increase consumer and investor satisfaction.

[0468] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 2 is realized by the following means.

[0469] In this invention, the server includes means for collecting market analysis data using generative artificial intelligence and forecasting crop supply and demand, means for collecting climate analysis data using generative artificial intelligence and identifying optimal cultivation areas, means for presenting recommended crops and cultivation areas to the user based on the collected market analysis data and climate analysis data, emotion engine means for analyzing the user's emotions and providing information and support based on the user's emotional state, means for accepting investment decisions from the user, selecting farmland, and creating investment projects, means for harvesting crops that have reached the harvest season and shipping them to market and distributing the resulting profits to the user, and means for analyzing consumer preferences based on the analysis of the user's emotions and recommending optimal agricultural products. This enables optimization of investment and agricultural product sales taking into account the user's emotions and preferences.

[0470] "Generative AI" refers to artificial intelligence techniques used to collect, analyze, and predict market and climate analysis data.

[0471] "Market analysis data" refers to data that includes market information such as prices, consumption, and import / export volumes of agricultural products.

[0472] "Climate analysis data" refers to data that includes meteorological information such as temperature, precipitation, and hours of sunshine.

[0473] The "emotion engine" is an engine that analyzes the user's emotions and provides information and support based on their psychological state.

[0474] "Site selection" is the process of selecting the most suitable land for an investment project.

[0475] "Investment project generation" is the process of selecting farmland and formulating a cultivation plan based on the user's investment decision, and then launching the project.

[0476] "Harvesting season" is the time when the crop is fully grown and ready for harvest.

[0477] "Profit sharing" is the process of distributing the profits from the sale of marketed crops to users.

[0478] "Agricultural product recommendation" is the act of suggesting the most suitable agricultural products based on consumer preferences and sentiment analysis.

[0479] "Collected Data" refers to various data collected and stored by the system, including market analysis data and climate analysis data.

[0480] An "online platform" is an internet-based system accessible to users that provides efficient agricultural techniques and know-how.

[0481] "Sales strategy proposal" is the act of presenting optimal sales methods and marketing strategies based on the consumer's emotional state through the emotional engine means.

[0482] "Smart devices" are devices with internet connectivity, such as smartphones and tablets, that provide information based on emotion analysis.

[0483] The program of the system that realizes this invention is executed on a smart device such as a smartphone or tablet, and provides optimal information on agricultural products and proposes sales strategies to consumers and investors based on market analysis data and climate analysis data. Specific examples are shown below.

[0484] The server uses generative artificial intelligence to scrape market analysis data from online agricultural product price information websites and published statistical reports. The main data collected includes crop prices, consumption, and import / export volumes. At the same time, climate analysis data is collected from meteorological agencies and through APIs. Climate analysis data includes temperature, precipitation, and sunshine hours. This data is then analyzed within the server to forecast crop demand and identify optimal cultivation areas.

[0485] Next, the emotion engine analyzes the user's input, past activity data, and even biometric information (e.g., facial expressions and tone of voice collected through the camera and microphone) in real time to identify the user's emotional state. Based on the emotion analysis, the user's psychological state is analyzed and information and support are provided based on their willingness to invest or purchase. For example, if a user is interested in growing tomatoes but feels anxious, information about past success stories and risk mitigation measures is provided.

[0486] Users can review the information provided through their smart devices and select the crops and farmland they wish to invest in. Once the user's investment decision is sent to the server, the server selects farmland, generates an investment project, and formulates a management plan for the selected farmland. When the crops reach harvest time, the server plans and executes the harvesting work and ships the harvested crops to market. The sales profits obtained are tallied and distributed to users.

[0487] In addition, the server obtains real-time data from the farmland (e.g., soil moisture, temperature, and nutrient levels) through IoT devices and sensors, and generates alerts and notifies users when an abnormality is detected, allowing them to respond quickly.

[0488] As a concrete example, suppose a user types, "Recently, I've been wondering about the quality of tomatoes." This text is subjected to sentiment analysis, and if the user's positive sentiment is confirmed, the server will suggest tomato cultivation based on market and climate data. Specific examples of suggestions include recommended cultivation areas, investment amounts, and past success stories. This information is provided to the user via their smart device.

[0489] Examples of prompts for the generative AI model in this system include:

[0490] Lately, I've been wondering about the quality of my tomatoes. Question: What's the best crop to buy?

[0491] In this way, the present invention is a system that takes into account the user's emotions and preferences and realizes optimal information provision and sales strategies for agricultural products.

[0847] Terminal

[0848] Users can view the profits distributed through their accounts.

[0849] Specific examples

[0850] For example, when the tomato harvest is completed and a profit of 200,000 yen is earned from sales, a portion of that profit is transferred to the user's account and the user is notified that the profit distribution has been completed.

[0851] In this way, the present invention utilizes generative AI and an emotion engine to streamline various agricultural processes and provide an environment in which individual investors can easily enter the agricultural industry. The introduction of an emotion engine makes it possible to provide information and support suited to the user's psychological state, thereby improving the effectiveness of investment activities and agricultural management.

[0852] The processing flow will be explained below.

[0853] Step 1:

[0874] Device:

[0875] Data relating to the investment decision is transmitted to a server.

[0876] Step 5:

[0877] server:

[0878] Based on the user's investment decisions, an investment project is generated, including the selected farmland, crops, investment amount, and projected profits.

[0879] Develop a management plan for the farmland and set the required resources and work schedule.

[0880] Using an emotion engine, it analyzes users' emotions and investment motivation, and provides appropriate investment support and information to maintain motivation.

[0881] Specific examples

[0882] If the user decides to invest in tomato cultivation, the server creates a specific cultivation plan and provides the user with predicted profits and risk information.

[0883] Step 6:

[0884] server:

[0885] After the investment project is created, the progress of the project is provided to the user through a user interface.

[0886] Real-time data on farmland is collected through IoT devices and sensors, monitoring soil moisture, temperature, nutrient levels, and more.

[0887] If an abnormality is detected, an alert is generated and notified to the user.

[0896] Step 8:

[0897] server:

[0898] When the crop reaches harvest time, plan and execute the harvesting operations.

[0899] Ship the harvested crops to market and collect sales data.

[0900] Step 9:

[0901] server:

[0902] Profits from sales are tallied and distributed to users.

[0903] Profit sharing information will be notified to users.

[0904] Device:

[0905] Display the distributed profits in the user's account and notify them when the distribution is complete.

[0906] Specific examples

[0907] For example, when the tomato harvest is completed and a profit of 200,000 yen is earned from sales, a portion of that (for example, 50,000 yen) is transferred to the user's account, and the user is notified that the profit distribution has been completed.

[0908] In this way, the present invention utilizes generative artificial intelligence and an emotion engine to streamline a series of processes, from market analysis, climate analysis, investment plan creation, farmland management, harvesting, sales, and profit distribution, and provides an agricultural support system that provides information and support that adapts to the user's emotions.

[0909] Example 2

[0910] Next, a description will be given of Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[0911] Modern agriculture and investment activities require advanced data analysis and real-time sentiment analysis to be efficient and effective. However, conventional technologies have difficulty integrating agricultural and investment data analysis, making it difficult to provide information and support that takes into account investors' daily emotional states. This has made it difficult for investors to make accurate decisions, often resulting in inefficient agricultural project management.

[0912] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the second embodiment is realized by the following means.

[0913] In this invention, the server includes means for collecting market analysis data using generative artificial intelligence and forecasting crop supply and demand, means for collecting climate analysis data using generative artificial intelligence and identifying optimal cultivation areas, means for presenting users with recommended crops and cultivation areas based on the collected market analysis data and climate analysis data, means for analyzing users' emotional data and providing information and support according to their psychological state, means for accepting users' investment decisions, selecting farmland and creating investment projects, and means for harvesting crops that have reached the harvest stage and shipping them to market and distributing the resulting profits to users. This allows users to receive highly accurate information that takes their emotional state into consideration, enabling more accurate and efficient investment and agricultural project management.

[0914] "Generative AI" is a type of AI technology used to collect, analyze, and predict data, specifically the ability to generate new information and patterns using generative models.

[0915] "Market analysis data" refers to data containing market information such as agricultural product prices, consumption, and import / export volumes, and is used to forecast agricultural supply and demand.

[0916] "Climate analysis data" refers to data containing information about the climate, such as temperature, precipitation, and hours of sunshine, that is used to identify optimal conditions for growing crops.

[0917] "Emotional data" refers to data that reflects the user's psychological state, and refers to information collected based on facial expressions, tone of voice, input content, etc.

[0918] "Agricultural land monitoring" is the process of using IoT devices and sensors to monitor agricultural land environmental data (e.g., soil moisture, temperature, and nutrient levels) in real time and responding if anomalies are detected.

[0919] An "online platform" is a collection of systems or services that can be accessed by users via the internet and that serve as a means of providing efficient agricultural technology and know-how.

[0920] An "investment project" is a planning and management framework generated by a user to invest in a specific crop and farmland, including the entire process from harvesting to sales and profit sharing.

[0921] An "alert" is a warning message that is sent to users when an abnormality is detected during agricultural land monitoring, and is intended to encourage a prompt response.

[0922] A "user interface" is the set of means and tools by which a user interacts with a system or service, allowing them to enter and retrieve information and view project status.

[0923] This invention is a system that combines generative artificial intelligence and an emotion engine, and by recognizing and analyzing the user's emotions, it provides effective investment and agricultural support. This system collects and analyzes various data, and not only provides users with optimal agricultural investment information, but also provides support according to the user's psychological state.

[0924] The server uses generative artificial intelligence (e.g., Google Cloud AI) to collect market analysis data. The market analysis data is obtained by scraping data such as crop prices, consumption, and import / export volumes from online agricultural crop price information websites and published statistical reports. Climate analysis data is also collected from meteorological agencies (e.g., the Japan Meteorological Agency) and APIs (e.g., OpenWeather API) to collect weather information such as temperature, precipitation, and sunshine hours.

[0925] The server integrates collected market analysis data and climate analysis data and analyzes the data using a generative AI model. This makes it possible to forecast crop demand and identify optimal cultivation areas. For example, the server may detect that the market price of tomatoes is on the rise this year, and determine from regional weather data that a certain region is suitable for tomato cultivation. Based on this information, it may recommend tomato cultivation to the user.

[0926] The server then uses an emotion engine (e.g., Azure Cognitive Services' Emotion API) to analyze the user's emotions in real time. It analyzes user input, past activity data, and biometric information collected through the camera and microphone, such as facial expressions and tone of voice, to identify the user's emotional state. For example, if a user expresses interest in growing tomatoes but is feeling anxious, the emotion engine will detect this anxiety and provide information about past success stories and risk mitigation measures.

[0927] The user uses a device (e.g., smartphone or PC) to check the provided information and select the crop and farmland in which to invest. When the user's investment decision is sent to the server, the server creates a specific cultivation plan for the selected farmland and crop as a project and manages it. For example, if the user decides to invest in a tomato cultivation project in a certain region, the server creates a specific cultivation plan based on that information and manages it as a project.

[0928] In addition, the server uses IoT devices (e.g., soil sensors, weather stations) to obtain real-time data on the managed farmland and monitor its condition. It collects data such as soil moisture, temperature, and nutrient levels, and generates alerts to notify users if an abnormality is detected. For example, if soil moisture falls below an appropriate level, the server automatically activates the irrigation system to provide the appropriate amount of water.

[0929] The server uses collected farmland data and market analysis data to provide efficient agricultural techniques and know-how via an online platform (e.g., Moodle). Users can use this platform to learn the latest agricultural techniques and apply them to their own work. For example, they can learn the optimal planting spacing and fertilization schedule for tomatoes on the platform and then put it into practice in the field.

[0930] When the crops reach harvest time, the server plans and executes the harvesting work and ships the harvested crops to market. The sales profits are tallied and distributed to users. Through the terminal, users can check their own accounts and confirm the distributed profits. For example, if the tomato harvest is complete and profits from sales are 200,000 yen, a portion of that will be transferred to the user's account and the user will be notified that the profit distribution has been completed.

[0931] In this way, the present invention utilizes generative AI and an emotion engine to streamline various agricultural processes and provide an environment in which individual investors can easily enter the agricultural industry. The introduction of an emotion engine makes it possible to provide information and support suited to the user's psychological state, thereby improving the effectiveness of investment activities and agricultural management.

[0932] Examples of specific prompts include the following:

[0933] 1. "Collect current market prices and consumption of tomatoes"

[0934] 2. "Collect climate data for the past year for a certain region."

[0935] 3. "If a user is interested in growing tomatoes, which areas are suitable for growing them?"

[0936] The flow of the identification process in the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

[0937] Step 1: Collect market analysis data

[0938] server

[0939] The server uses generative artificial intelligence (e.g., Google Cloud AI) to collect market analysis data.

[0940] Input: URL or API endpoint of a crop pricing information site or statistical report.

[0941] Output: Market analysis data such as prices, consumption, import and export volumes of agricultural products.

[0942] Specific operation: The server uses web scraping technology to obtain data from agricultural product price information websites on the Internet. For example, it uses a prompt such as "Collect the current market price and consumption of tomatoes."

[0943] Step 2: Collecting climate analysis data

[0944] server

[0952] Input: Market analysis data and climate analysis data.

[0953] Output: Demand forecast results and identification of optimal growing areas.

[0954] Specific operation: The server inputs the integrated data into an AI model and performs demand forecasting. For example, based on the collected market price of tomatoes and climate data for a certain region, it predicts that "a certain region is suitable for tomato cultivation."

[0955] Step 4: Analyzing user emotions with the emotion engine

[0956] server

[0957] The server uses an emotion engine (e.g., Azure Cognitive Services' Emotion API) to analyze the user's emotion data in real time.

[0958] Input: User input data, facial expression data, voice data, etc.

[0959] Output: Information about the user's emotional state.

[0960] Specific operation: The server analyzes facial expressions, tone of voice, and input from the user collected through the camera and microphone to determine the user's current emotional state. For example, if a user inputs "I feel anxious" about investing, the server analyzes this and provides appropriate support information.

[0961] Step 5: User investment decision and project creation

[0962] User

[0963] Users use the terminal to make investment decisions based on analysis results and advice.

[0964] Input: Prediction data and sentiment analysis results provided by the server.

[0982] Inputs: Quantity of crop harvested and sale price.

[0983] Output: Profit sharing status.

[0984] Specific operation: After the harvest is completed, the server automatically calculates the sales profit and transfers it to the user's account. For example, if the tomato harvest is completed and the sales profit is 200,000 yen, it will be distributed to each user and notified.

[0985] (Application example 2)

[0986] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[0987] In recent years, the agricultural sector has seen a demand for systems that utilize market and climate analysis data to forecast crop demand and supply and identify optimal cultivation areas. Furthermore, there is a need for methods to optimize agricultural product sales strategies based on consumer preferences and emotions, support investment decisions, and ensure profits. However, existing systems do not adequately analyze users' emotions and preferences, and recommend agricultural products and propose sales strategies that are tailored to the user's psychological state. Therefore, an effective system is needed to increase consumer and investor satisfaction.

[0988] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 2 is realized by the following means.

[0989] In this invention, the server includes means for collecting market analysis data using generative artificial intelligence and forecasting crop supply and demand, means for collecting climate analysis data using generative artificial intelligence and identifying optimal cultivation areas, means for presenting recommended crops and cultivation areas to the user based on the collected market analysis data and climate analysis data, emotion engine means for analyzing the user's emotions and providing information and support based on the user's emotional state, means for accepting investment decisions from the user, selecting farmland, and creating investment projects, means for harvesting crops that have reached the harvest season and shipping them to market and distributing the resulting profits to the user, and means for analyzing consumer preferences based on the analysis of the user's emotions and recommending optimal agricultural products. This enables optimization of investment and agricultural product sales taking into account the user's emotions and preferences.

[0990] "Generative AI" refers to artificial intelligence techniques used to collect, analyze, and predict market and climate analysis data.

[0991] "Market analysis data" refers to data that includes market information such as prices, consumption, and import / export volumes of agricultural products.

[0992] "Climate analysis data" refers to data that includes meteorological information such as temperature, precipitation, and hours of sunshine.

[0993] The "emotion engine" is an engine that analyzes the user's emotions and provides information and support based on their psychological state.

[0994] "Site selection" is the process of selecting the most suitable land for an investment project.

[0995] "Investment project generation" is the process of selecting farmland and formulating a cultivation plan based on the user's investment decision, and then launching the project.

[0996] "Harvesting season" is the time when the crop is fully grown and ready for harvest.

[0997] "Profit sharing" is the process of distributing the profits from the sale of marketed crops to users.

[0998] "Agricultural product recommendation" is the act of suggesting the most suitable agricultural products based on consumer preferences and sentiment analysis.

[0999] "Collected Data" refers to various data collected and stored by the system, including market analysis data and climate analysis data.

[1000] An "online platform" is an internet-based system accessible to users that provides efficient agricultural techniques and know-how.

[1001] "Sales strategy proposal" is the act of presenting optimal sales methods and marketing strategies based on the consumer's emotional state through the emotional engine means.

[1002] "Smart devices" are devices with internet connectivity, such as smartphones and tablets, that provide information based on emotion analysis.

[1003] The program of the system that realizes this invention is executed on a smart device such as a smartphone or tablet, and provides optimal information on agricultural products and proposes sales strategies to consumers and investors based on market analysis data and climate analysis data. Specific examples are shown below.

[1004] The server uses generative artificial intelligence to scrape market analysis data from online agricultural product price information websites and published statistical reports. The main data collected includes crop prices, consumption, and import / export volumes. At the same time, climate analysis data is collected from meteorological agencies and through APIs. Climate analysis data includes temperature, precipitation, and sunshine hours. This data is then analyzed within the server to forecast crop demand and identify optimal cultivation areas.

[1005] Next, the emotion engine analyzes the user's input, past activity data, and even biometric information (e.g., facial expressions and tone of voice collected through the camera and microphone) in real time to identify the user's emotional state. Based on the emotion analysis, the user's psychological state is analyzed and information and support are provided based on their willingness to invest or purchase. For example, if a user is interested in growing tomatoes but feels anxious, information about past success stories and risk mitigation measures is provided.

[1006] Users can review the information provided through their smart devices and select the crops and farmland they wish to invest in. Once the user's investment decision is sent to the server, the server selects farmland, generates an investment project, and formulates a management plan for the selected farmland. When the crops reach harvest time, the server plans and executes the harvesting work and ships the harvested crops to market. The sales profits obtained are tallied and distributed to users.

[1007] In addition, the server obtains real-time data from the farmland (e.g., soil moisture, temperature, and nutrient levels) through IoT devices and sensors, and generates alerts and notifies users when an abnormality is detected, allowing them to respond quickly.

[1008] As a concrete example, suppose a user types, "Recently, I've been wondering about the quality of tomatoes." This text is subjected to sentiment analysis, and if the user's positive sentiment is confirmed, the server will suggest tomato cultivation based on market and climate data. Specific examples of suggestions include recommended cultivation areas, investment amounts, and past success stories. This information is provided to the user via their smart device.

[1009] Examples of prompts for the generative AI model in this system include:

[1010] Lately, I've been wondering about the quality of my tomatoes. Question: What's the best crop to buy?

[1011] In this way, the present invention is a system that takes into account the user's emotions and preferences and realizes optimal information provision and sales strategies for agricultural products.

The server receives the user's selection results, generates specific investment projects, and formulates investment plans. This information is stored on a dedicated management platform for progress management. The input is the user's investment selection information, and the output is the generated investment project.

[1323] Step 6:

[1324] Farm monitoring and real-time notifications

[1325] The server uses IoT devices (Arduino, Raspberry Pi) and sensors to collect farmland data in real time and monitor the situation. If soil moisture, temperature, nutrient levels, etc. are outside of acceptable ranges, the server generates an alert and notifies the user device. The input is real-time data from the IoT device, and the output is a notification to the user.

[1326] Step 7:

[1329] Step 8:

[1330] Managing harvesting, sales and profit sharing

[1331] When the crops reach the harvesting period, the server plans and manages the harvesting work and arranges for shipment to the market. If any sales profits are earned, they are distributed to the users and the profit details are notified to the user devices. The input is harvest and sales data, and the output is a profit distribution notification to the users.

[1332] This allows users to efficiently learn about agricultural techniques while receiving interactive, real-time data, and makes it easier to keep track of the progress of investment projects in real time.

[1333] Furthermore, an emotion engine that estimates the user's emotion may be further combined. That is, the identification processing unit 290 may estimate the user's emotion using the emotion identification model 59, and perform identification processing using the user's emotion.

[1334] This invention is a system that combines generative artificial intelligence with an emotion engine to recognize and analyze user emotions, thereby providing more effective investment and agricultural support. This system collects market analysis data and climate analysis data, forecasts crop demand and supply, and identifies optimal cultivation areas and crops to provide to users. It also accepts user investment decisions, selects farmland, creates investment projects, and manages the process from harvesting to sales and profit distribution. It also uses the emotion engine to analyze user emotions and provide appropriate information and support.

[1335] Market and climate analysis

[1336] server

[1337] First, generative AI is used to collect market analysis data and climate analysis data. Market analysis data is obtained by scraping data such as crop prices, consumption, and import / export volumes from online agricultural crop price information sites and published statistical reports. Climate analysis data is obtained by collecting weather information such as temperature, precipitation, and sunshine hours through meteorological agencies and APIs. The server analyzes the data collected in this way to forecast crop demand and identify optimal cultivation areas.

[1338] Specific examples

[1339] For example, the server may detect that the market price of tomatoes is on the rise this year, and determine from regional weather data that a certain region is suitable for growing tomatoes. Based on this information, the server may recommend growing tomatoes to the user.

[1340] Use of emotion engine

[1341] server

[1342] The emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions in real time by analyzing user input, past activity data, and even biometric information (e.g., facial expressions and tone of voice collected through a camera or microphone) to determine the user's emotional state.

[1343] User

[1344] If the sentiment engine determines that a customer is motivated to invest, the system will provide more detailed investment information and success stories to encourage investment activity. On the other hand, if a customer is in a state of stress or has doubts, the system will provide risk information and supportive messages.

[1345] Specific examples

[1346] If a user expresses interest in growing tomatoes but is nervous about investing, the sentiment engine will detect that and provide information about past success stories and risk mitigation strategies.

[1347] Investment project creation and management

[1348] User

[1349] The user uses the terminal to review the provided information and select the crops and farmland to invest in. Once the user's investment decision is sent to the server, the server generates an investment project and formulates a management plan for the selected farmland.

[1350] Specific examples

[1351] If a user decides to invest in a tomato cultivation project in a certain region, the server creates a specific cultivation plan based on that information and manages it as a project.

[1352] Farmland monitoring and management

[1353] server

[1354] The server collects real-time data from IoT devices and sensors to monitor the condition of the farmland, collecting data such as soil moisture, temperature, and nutrient levels, and generates an alert to notify the user if an abnormality is detected.

[1361] Users can apply the provided know-how to their actual work and manage their farmland, and can also respond immediately based on monitoring results and alert information.

[1362] Specific examples

[1363] For example, you can learn the optimal planting spacing and fertilization schedule for tomatoes on the platform and then put it into practice in the field.

[1364] Harvesting, selling, and profit sharing

[1365] server

[1366] When the crops reach the harvesting period, the system plans and executes the harvesting work, delivers the harvested crops to the market, and tally up the sales profits and distribute them to users.

[1367] Terminal

[1368] Users can view the profits distributed through their accounts.

[1369] Specific examples

[1370] For example, when the tomato harvest is completed and a profit of 200,000 yen is earned from sales, a portion of that profit is transferred to the user's account and the user is notified that the profit distribution has been completed.

[1371] In this way, the present invention utilizes generative AI and an emotion engine to streamline various agricultural processes and provide an environment in which individual investors can easily enter the agricultural industry. The introduction of an emotion engine makes it possible to provide information and support suited to the user's psychological state, thereby improving the effectiveness of investment activities and agricultural management.

[1372] The processing flow will be explained below.

[1373] Step 1:

[1374] server:

[1375] Market analysis data is scraped from online agricultural crop price information sites and statistical reports, and data such as crop prices, consumption, and import / export volumes is collected.

[1376] It collects climate analysis data such as temperature, precipitation, and sunshine hours from meteorological agency APIs and public weather databases.

[1377] The collected market analysis data and climate analysis data are stored in a database and prepared for data analysis.

[1378] Step 2:

[1379] server:

[1380] Generative artificial intelligence is used to analyze the collected market analysis data and climate analysis data.

[1381] Conduct demand and supply forecasts for crops and identify optimal crops.

[1382] Based on climate analysis data, the optimum cultivation areas for growing crops are identified.

[1383] Based on the analysis results, recommended crops and cultivation areas are determined, and a data format is created to provide the data to users.

[1384] Step 3:

[1385] server:

[1386] The analysis results are sent to a user-facing application.

[1387] Device:

[1388] The analysis results received from the server are displayed to the user, including recommended crops, recommended growing areas, and market demand analysis results.

[1389] The emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions and generates appropriate investment suggestions and support messages.

[1390] Step 4:

[1391] User:

[1392] Based on the analysis results and investment proposals presented, crops and farmland for investment are selected.

[1393] Enter the investment amount in the application and confirm your investment decision.

[1394] Device:

[1395] Data relating to the investment decision is transmitted to a server.

[1396] Step 5:

[1397] server:

[1398] Based on the user's investment decisions, an investment project is generated, including the selected farmland, crops, investment amount, and projected profits.

[1399] Develop a management plan for the farmland and set the required resources and work schedule.

[1400] Using an emotion engine, it analyzes users' emotions and investment motivation, and provides appropriate investment support and information to maintain motivation.

[1401] Specific examples

[1402] If the user decides to invest in tomato cultivation, the server creates a specific cultivation plan and provides the user with predicted profits and risk information.

[1403] Step 6:

[1404] server:

[1405] After the investment project is created, the progress of the project is provided to the user through a user interface.

[1406] Real-time data on farmland is collected through IoT devices and sensors, monitoring soil moisture, temperature, nutrient levels, and more.

[1407] If an abnormality is detected, an alert is generated and notified to the user.

[1408] Device:

[1409] Display project information and alert notifications in your account to prompt you to take necessary action.

[1410] Step 7:

[1411] User:

[1412] Receive alert notifications, take necessary action, and use online platforms to learn efficient farming techniques and know-how.

[1413] Put new technologies and methods into practice locally.

[1414] Specific examples

[1415] After users learn about irrigation methods for tomato cultivation, they can apply that information to actual farm management and ensure proper water supply.

[1416] Step 8:

[1417] server:

[1418] When the crop reaches harvest time, plan and execute the harvesting operations.

[1419] Ship the harvested crops to market and collect sales data.

[1420] Step 9:

[1421] server:

[1422] Profits from sales are tallied and distributed to users.

[1423] Profit sharing information will be notified to users.

[1424] Device:

[1425] Display the distributed profits in the user's account and notify them when the distribution is complete.

[1426] Specific examples

[1427] For example, when the tomato harvest is completed and a profit of 200,000 yen is earned from sales, a portion of that (for example, 50,000 yen) is transferred to the user's account, and the user is notified that the profit distribution has been completed.

[1428] In this way, the present invention utilizes generative artificial intelligence and an emotion engine to streamline a series of processes, from market analysis, climate analysis, investment plan creation, farmland management, harvesting, sales, and profit distribution, and provides an agricultural support system that provides information and support that adapts to the user's emotions.

[1429] Example 2

[1430] Next, a description will be given of Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the headset type terminal 314 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[1431] Modern agriculture and investment activities require advanced data analysis and real-time sentiment analysis to be efficient and effective. However, conventional technologies have difficulty integrating agricultural and investment data analysis, making it difficult to provide information and support that takes into account investors' daily emotional states. This has made it difficult for investors to make accurate decisions, often resulting in inefficient agricultural project management.

[1432] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the second embodiment is realized by the following means.

[1433] In this invention, the server includes means for collecting market analysis data using generative artificial intelligence and forecasting crop supply and demand, means for collecting climate analysis data using generative artificial intelligence and identifying optimal cultivation areas, means for presenting users with recommended crops and cultivation areas based on the collected market analysis data and climate analysis data, means for analyzing users' emotional data and providing information and support according to their psychological state, means for accepting users' investment decisions, selecting farmland and creating investment projects, and means for harvesting crops that have reached the harvest stage and shipping them to market and distributing the resulting profits to users. This allows users to receive highly accurate information that takes their emotional state into consideration, enabling more accurate and efficient investment and agricultural project management.

[1434] "Generative AI" is a type of AI technology used to collect, analyze, and predict data, specifically the ability to generate new information and patterns using generative models.

[1435] "Market analysis data" refers to data containing market information such as agricultural product prices, consumption, and import / export volumes, and is used to forecast agricultural supply and demand.

[1436] "Climate analysis data" refers to data containing information about the climate, such as temperature, precipitation, and hours of sunshine, that is used to identify optimal conditions for growing crops.

[1437] "Emotional data" refers to data that reflects the user's psychological state, and refers to information collected based on facial expressions, tone of voice, input content, etc.

[1438] "Agricultural land monitoring" is the process of using IoT devices and sensors to monitor agricultural land environmental data (e.g., soil moisture, temperature, and nutrient levels) in real time and responding if anomalies are detected.

[1439] An "online platform" is a collection of systems or services that can be accessed by users via the internet and that serve as a means of providing efficient agricultural technology and know-how.

[1440] An "investment project" is a planning and management framework generated by a user to invest in a specific crop and farmland, including the entire process from harvesting to sales and profit sharing.

[1441] An "alert" is a warning message that is sent to users when an abnormality is detected during agricultural land monitoring, and is intended to encourage a prompt response.

[1442] A "user interface" is the set of means and tools by which a user interacts with a system or service, allowing them to enter and retrieve information and view project status.

[1443] This invention is a system that combines generative artificial intelligence and an emotion engine, and by recognizing and analyzing the user's emotions, it provides effective investment and agricultural support. This system collects and analyzes various data, and not only provides users with optimal agricultural investment information, but also provides support according to the user's psychological state.

[1444] The server uses generative artificial intelligence (e.g., Google Cloud AI) to collect market analysis data. The market analysis data is obtained by scraping data such as crop prices, consumption, and import / export volumes from online agricultural crop price information websites and published statistical reports. Climate analysis data is also collected from meteorological agencies (e.g., the Japan Meteorological Agency) and APIs (e.g., OpenWeather API) to collect weather information such as temperature, precipitation, and sunshine hours.

[1445] The server integrates collected market analysis data and climate analysis data and analyzes the data using a generative AI model. This makes it possible to forecast crop demand and identify optimal cultivation areas. For example, the server may detect that the market price of tomatoes is on the rise this year, and determine from regional weather data that a certain region is suitable for tomato cultivation. Based on this information, it may recommend tomato cultivation to the user.

[1446] The server then uses an emotion engine (e.g., Azure Cognitive Services' Emotion API) to analyze the user's emotions in real time. It analyzes user input, past activity data, and biometric information collected through the camera and microphone, such as facial expressions and tone of voice, to identify the user's emotional state. For example, if a user expresses interest in growing tomatoes but is feeling anxious, the emotion engine will detect this anxiety and provide information about past success stories and risk mitigation measures.

[1447] The user uses a device (e.g., smartphone or PC) to check the provided information and select the crop and farmland in which to invest. When the user's investment decision is sent to the server, the server creates a specific cultivation plan for the selected farmland and crop as a project and manages it. For example, if the user decides to invest in a tomato cultivation project in a certain region, the server creates a specific cultivation plan based on that information and manages it as a project.

[1448] In addition, the server uses IoT devices (e.g., soil sensors, weather stations) to obtain real-time data on the managed farmland and monitor its condition. It collects data such as soil moisture, temperature, and nutrient levels, and generates alerts to notify users if an abnormality is detected. For example, if soil moisture falls below an appropriate level, the server automatically activates the irrigation system to provide the appropriate amount of water.

[1449] The server uses collected farmland data and market analysis data to provide efficient agricultural techniques and know-how via an online platform (e.g., Moodle). Users can use this platform to learn the latest agricultural techniques and apply them to their own work. For example, they can learn the optimal planting spacing and fertilization schedule for tomatoes on the platform and then put it into practice in the field.

[1450] When the crops reach harvest time, the server plans and executes the harvesting work and ships the harvested crops to market. The sales profits are tallied and distributed to users. Through the terminal, users can check their own accounts and confirm the distributed profits. For example, if the tomato harvest is complete and profits from sales are 200,000 yen, a portion of that will be transferred to the user's account and the user will be notified that the profit distribution has been completed.

[1451] In this way, the present invention utilizes generative AI and an emotion engine to streamline various agricultural processes and provide an environment in which individual investors can easily enter the agricultural industry. The introduction of an emotion engine makes it possible to provide information and support suited to the user's psychological state, thereby improving the effectiveness of investment activities and agricultural management.

[1452] Examples of specific prompts include the following:

[1453] 1. "Collect current market prices and consumption of tomatoes"

[1454] 2. "Collect climate data for the past year for a certain region."

[1455] 3. "If a user is interested in growing tomatoes, which areas are suitable for growing them?"

[1456] The flow of the identification process in the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

[1465] The server collects climate analysis data from meteorological agencies (e.g., the Japan Meteorological Agency) or through APIs (e.g., OpenWeatherAPI).

[1466] Input: Weather agency database or API endpoint.

[1467] Output: Climate analysis data such as temperature, precipitation, and sunshine hours.

[1468] Specific operation: The server uses the API to obtain data such as temperature, precipitation, and sunshine hours for the specified area. An example of a prompt is "Collect climate data for the past year for the XX area."

[1469] Step 3: Data analysis and demand forecasting

[1470] server

[1471] The server integrates the collected market analysis data and climate analysis data and analyzes the data using a generative AI model.

[1472] Input: Market analysis data and climate analysis data.

[1473] Output: Demand forecast results and identification of optimal growing areas.

[1474] Specific operation: The server inputs the integrated data into an AI model and performs demand forecasting. For example, based on the collected market price of tomatoes and climate data for a certain region, it predicts that "a certain region is suitable for tomato cultivation."

[1475] Step 4: Analyzing user emotions with the emotion engine

[1476] server

[1477] The server uses an emotion engine (e.g., Azure Cognitive Services' Emotion API) to analyze the user's emotion data in real time.

[1478] Input: User input data, facial expression data, voice data, etc.

[1479] Output: Information about the user's emotional state.

[1480] Specific operation: The server analyzes facial expressions, tone of voice, and input from the user collected through the camera and microphone to determine the user's current emotional state. For example, if a user inputs "I feel anxious" about investing, the server analyzes this and provides appropriate support information.

[1481] Step 5: User investment decision and project creation

[1482] User

[1483] Users use the terminal to make investment decisions based on analysis results and advice.

[1484] Input: Prediction data and sentiment analysis results provided by the server.

[1485] Output: Submission of investment decision.

[1486] Specific operation: The user looks at the analysis results provided (for example, the best region for tomato cultivation), decides on an investment, and sends a message to the server such as "Invest in a tomato cultivation project in region X."

[1487] Step 6: Farm monitoring

[1488] server

[1489] The server collects real-time data on the farmland through IoT devices and sensors and monitors its condition.

[1490] Input: Data from IoT sensors (e.g. soil moisture, temperature, nutrient levels).

[1491] Output: Real-time monitoring data and abnormal alerts.

[1492] Specific operation: The server analyzes data sent from the sensors in real time, and if an abnormality is detected, it automatically starts the irrigation system and sends an alert to the user.

[1493] Step 7: Providing agricultural technology

[1494] server

[1495] Based on the collected data, the server provides efficient agricultural techniques and know-how via an online platform.

[1496] Input: Analyzed farmland data and market data.

[1497] Output: Technical information and know-how on an online platform.

[1498] Specific operation: The server posts information such as "optimal planting intervals for tomatoes" and "fertilization schedules" on the online platform. Users can learn from this information and apply it to their actual farming activities.

[1499] Step 8: Harvest, sell, and share profits

[1500] server

[1501] When the crops reach harvest time, the server plans and executes the harvesting operation, delivers the harvested products to market, and tallys up the sales profits and distribute them to users.

[1502] Inputs: Quantity of crop harvested and sale price.

[1503] Output: Profit sharing status.

[1504] Specific operation: After the harvest is completed, the server automatically calculates the sales profit and transfers it to the user's account. For example, if the tomato harvest is completed and the sales profit is 200,000 yen, it will be distributed to each user and notified.

[1505] (Application example 2)

[1506] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the headset type terminal 314 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[1507] In recent years, the agricultural sector has seen a demand for systems that utilize market and climate analysis data to forecast crop demand and supply and identify optimal cultivation areas. Furthermore, there is a need for methods to optimize agricultural product sales strategies based on consumer preferences and emotions, support investment decisions, and ensure profits. However, existing systems do not adequately analyze users' emotions and preferences, and recommend agricultural products and propose sales strategies that are tailored to the user's psychological state. Therefore, an effective system is needed to increase consumer and investor satisfaction.

[1508] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 2 is realized by the following means.

[1509] In this invention, the server includes means for collecting market analysis data using generative artificial intelligence and forecasting crop supply and demand, means for collecting climate analysis data using generative artificial intelligence and identifying optimal cultivation areas, means for presenting recommended crops and cultivation areas to the user based on the collected market analysis data and climate analysis data, emotion engine means for analyzing the user's emotions and providing information and support based on the user's emotional state, means for accepting investment decisions from the user, selecting farmland, and creating investment projects, means for harvesting crops that have reached the harvest season and shipping them to market and distributing the resulting profits to the user, and means for analyzing consumer preferences based on the analysis of the user's emotions and recommending optimal agricultural products. This enables optimization of investment and agricultural product sales taking into account the user's emotions and preferences.

[1510] "Generative AI" refers to artificial intelligence techniques used to collect, analyze, and predict market and climate analysis data.

[1511] "Market analysis data" refers to data that includes market information such as prices, consumption, and import / export volumes of agricultural products.

[1512] "Climate analysis data" refers to data that includes meteorological information such as temperature, precipitation, and hours of sunshine.

[1513] The "emotion engine" is an engine that analyzes the user's emotions and provides information and support based on their psychological state.

[1514] "Site selection" is the process of selecting the most suitable land for an investment project.

[1515] "Investment project generation" is the process of selecting farmland and formulating a cultivation plan based on the user's investment decision, and then launching the project.

[1516] "Harvesting season" is the time when the crop is fully grown and ready for harvest.

[1517] "Profit sharing" is the process of distributing the profits from the sale of marketed crops to users.

[1518] "Agricultural product recommendation" is the act of suggesting the most suitable agricultural products based on consumer preferences and sentiment analysis.

[1519] "Collected Data" refers to various data collected and stored by the system, including market analysis data and climate analysis data.

[1520] An "online platform" is an internet-based system accessible to users that provides efficient agricultural techniques and know-how.

[1521] "Sales strategy proposal" is the act of presenting optimal sales methods and marketing strategies based on the consumer's emotional state through the emotional engine means.

[1522] "Smart devices" are devices with internet connectivity, such as smartphones and tablets, that provide information based on emotion analysis.

[1523] The program of the system that realizes this invention is executed on a smart device such as a smartphone or tablet, and provides optimal information on agricultural products and proposes sales strategies to consumers and investors based on market analysis data and climate analysis data. Specific examples are shown below.

[1524] The server uses generative artificial intelligence to scrape market analysis data from online agricultural product price information websites and published statistical reports. The main data collected includes crop prices, consumption, and import / export volumes. At the same time, climate analysis data is collected from meteorological agencies and through APIs. Climate analysis data includes temperature, precipitation, and sunshine hours. This data is then analyzed within the server to forecast crop demand and identify optimal cultivation areas.

[1525] Next, the emotion engine analyzes the user's input, past activity data, and even biometric information (e.g., facial expressions and tone of voice collected through the camera and microphone) in real time to identify the user's emotional state. Based on the emotion analysis, the user's psychological state is analyzed and information and support are provided based on their willingness to invest or purchase. For example, if a user is interested in growing tomatoes but feels anxious, information about past success stories and risk mitigation measures is provided.

[1526] Users can review the information provided through their smart devices and select the crops and farmland they wish to invest in. Once the user's investment decision is sent to the server, the server selects farmland, generates an investment project, and formulates a management plan for the selected farmland. When the crops reach harvest time, the server plans and executes the harvesting work and ships the harvested crops to market. The sales profits obtained are tallied and distributed to users.

[1527] In addition, the server obtains real-time data from the farmland (e.g., soil moisture, temperature, and nutrient levels) through IoT devices and sensors, and generates alerts and notifies users when an abnormality is detected, allowing them to respond quickly.

[1528] As a concrete example, suppose a user types, "Recently, I've been wondering about the quality of tomatoes." This text is subjected to sentiment analysis, and if the user's positive sentiment is confirmed, the server will suggest tomato cultivation based on market and climate data. Specific examples of suggestions include recommended cultivation areas, investment amounts, and past success stories. This information is provided to the user via their smart device.

[1529] Examples of prompts for the generative AI model in this system include:

[1530] Lately, I've been wondering about the quality of my tomatoes. Question: What's the best crop to buy?

[1598] This invention relates to an agricultural support system that uses generative artificial intelligence to efficiently perform market and climate analysis, identify optimal crops and regions for cultivation, and provide them to users. It also provides an investment platform that makes it easier for individual investors to enter the agricultural industry, and supports the entire process from cultivation, harvesting, sales, and profit distribution.

[1599] Market and climate analysis

[1600] server

[1601] First, generative AI is used to collect market analysis data and climate analysis data. Market analysis data is obtained by scraping data such as crop prices, consumption, and import / export volumes from online market information sites and published statistical reports. Climate analysis data is obtained by collecting weather information such as temperature, precipitation, and sunshine hours through meteorological agencies and APIs. The server analyzes the data collected in this way to forecast crop demand and identify optimal cultivation areas.

[1602] Specific examples

[1603] For example, the server may detect that the market price of tomatoes is on the rise this year, and determine from regional weather data that a certain region is suitable for growing tomatoes. Based on this information, the server may recommend growing tomatoes to the user.

[1604] Investment project creation and management

[1605] User

[1606] The user uses the terminal to review the provided information and select the crops and farmland to invest in. Once the user's investment decision is sent to the server, the server generates an investment project and formulates a management plan for the selected farmland.

[1607] Specific examples

[1608] If a user decides to invest in a tomato cultivation project in a certain region, the server creates a specific cultivation plan based on that information and manages it as a project.

[1609] Farmland monitoring and management

[1610] server

[1611] The server collects real-time data from IoT devices and sensors to monitor the condition of the farmland, collecting data such as soil moisture, temperature, and nutrient levels, and generates an alert to notify the user if an abnormality is detected.

[1621] Harvesting, selling, and profit sharing

[1622] server

[1623] When the crops reach the harvesting period, the system plans and executes the harvesting work, delivers the harvested crops to the market, and tally up the sales profits and distribute them to users.

[1624] Terminal

[1625] Users can view the profits distributed through their accounts.

[1626] Specific examples

[1627] For example, if the tomato harvest is complete and 200,000 yen in profits are earned from sales, a portion of that profit will be transferred to the user's account and the user will be notified that the profit distribution has been completed.

[1628] In this way, the present invention utilizes generative artificial intelligence to streamline various agricultural processes and provide an environment in which individual investors can easily enter the agricultural industry.

[1629] The processing flow will be explained below.

[1634] The collected market analysis data and climate analysis data are stored in a database and formatted into the format required for analysis.

[1635] Step 2:

[1636] server:

[1637] Generative artificial intelligence is used to analyze collected market and climate analysis data to forecast crop demand and identify optimal cultivation areas.

[1638] Based on the results of these analyses, information on recommended crops and their growing areas is generated and converted into a format for providing information to users.

[1639] Step 3:

[1640] server:

[1641] Send the analysis results to the application.

[1642] Device:

[1643] The analysis results received from the server are displayed to the user, including recommended crops, growing areas, and reasons for market demand.

[1649] Device:

[1650] The investment selection results are sent to the server.

[1651] Step 5:

[1652] server:

[1653] Based on the user's investment decision, an investment project is generated. Project information includes the selected farmland, crops, and investment amount.

[1654] Develop a management plan for the farm, setting out the necessary resources and work schedules.

[1655] Step 6:

[1656] server:

[1657] The generated investment project information is sent to the user, providing an overview of the project and its progress.

[1658] Device:

[1659] Display project information in your account and keep users updated on progress.

[1660] Step 7:

[1661] server:

[1662] Through IoT devices and sensors, real-time data on farmland is collected and conditions such as soil moisture, temperature, and nutrient levels are monitored.

[1663] If an abnormality is detected, an alert is immediately generated and the user is notified of the abnormality and the countermeasures to be taken.

[1664] Device:

[1665] An alert notification is displayed to the user, prompting them to take the necessary action.

[1666] Step 8:

[1667] server:

[1668] The online platform provides users with efficient agricultural techniques and know-how, and updates information as new techniques and methods are released.

[1669] User:

[1670] Participants learn agricultural know-how and techniques provided on the platform and apply them to their actual agricultural work.

[1671] Step 9:

[1672] server:

[1673] Plan and execute harvest operations when crops reach harvest stage.

[1674] Ship the harvested crops to market and collect sales data.

[1675] Step 10:

[1676] server:

[1677] Profits from sales are aggregated and distributed to users for each investment project.

[1678] Profit sharing information is notified to users.

[1679] Device:

[1680] Display the refunded profits in the user's account and notify them that the distribution is complete.

[1681] In this way, the present invention provides a system that enables efficient and sustainable agriculture, benefiting both investors and farmers.

[1682] Example 1

[1683] Next, a description will be given of Example 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the robot 414 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[1684] In the agricultural sector, efficient crop cultivation, market supply and demand forecasting, and identifying optimal cultivation areas based on climatic conditions are extremely important, but conventional methods require the time and effort required to collect and analyze vast amounts of information, which acts as a barrier to individual investors entering the agricultural industry. Furthermore, automating the process from harvesting to sales and profit distribution, and monitoring the condition of farmland in real time, are essential for further efficiency and quality improvement.

[1828] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 1 will be described with reference to FIG.

[1829] Step 1:

[1830] Collecting market analysis data

[1831] The server scrapes and collects market analysis data such as crop prices, consumption, and import / export volumes from market information sites and published statistical reports on the Internet. To do this, a web scraping tool (BeautifulSoup, Selenium, etc.) is used to extract and format data from the target sites. The input is a list of URLs for market information sites, and the output is the collected market analysis data.

[1832] Step 2:

[1833] Climate analysis data collection

[1834] The server collects weather data such as temperature, precipitation, and sunshine hours using meteorological agencies and APIs (OpenWeatherMap, WeatherStack).

The server receives the user's selection results, generates specific investment projects, and formulates investment plans. This information is stored on a dedicated management platform for progress management. The input is the user's investment selection information, and the output is the generated investment project.

[1844] Step 6:

[1845] Farm monitoring and real-time notifications

[1846] The server uses IoT devices (Arduino, Raspberry Pi) and sensors to collect farmland data in real time and monitor the situation. If soil moisture, temperature, nutrient levels, etc. are outside of acceptable ranges, the server generates an alert and notifies the user device. The input is real-time data from the IoT device, and the output is a notification to the user.

[1847] Step 7:

[1850] Step 8:

[1851] Managing harvesting, sales and profit sharing

[1852] When the crops reach the harvesting period, the server plans and manages the harvesting work and arranges for shipment to the market. If any sales profits are earned, they are distributed to the users and the profit details are notified to the user devices. The input is harvest and sales data, and the output is a profit distribution notification to the users.

[1853] This allows users to efficiently learn about agricultural techniques while receiving interactive, real-time data, and makes it easier to keep track of the progress of investment projects in real time.

[1854] Furthermore, an emotion engine that estimates the user's emotion may be further combined. That is, the identification processing unit 290 may estimate the user's emotion using the emotion identification model 59, and perform identification processing using the user's emotion.

[1855] This invention is a system that combines generative artificial intelligence with an emotion engine to recognize and analyze user emotions, thereby providing more effective investment and agricultural support. This system collects market analysis data and climate analysis data, forecasts crop demand and supply, and identifies optimal cultivation areas and crops to provide to users. It also accepts user investment decisions, selects farmland, creates investment projects, and manages the process from harvesting to sales and profit distribution. It also uses the emotion engine to analyze user emotions and provide appropriate information and support.

[1856] Market and climate analysis

[1857] server

[1858] First, generative AI is used to collect market analysis data and climate analysis data. Market analysis data is obtained by scraping data such as crop prices, consumption, and import / export volumes from online agricultural crop price information sites and published statistical reports. Climate analysis data is obtained by collecting weather information such as temperature, precipitation, and sunshine hours through meteorological agencies and APIs. The server analyzes the data collected in this way to forecast crop demand and identify optimal cultivation areas.

[1859] Specific examples

[1860] For example, the server may detect that the market price of tomatoes is on the rise this year, and determine from regional weather data that a certain region is suitable for growing tomatoes. Based on this information, the server may recommend growing tomatoes to the user.

[1861] Use of emotion engine

[1862] server

[1863] The emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions in real time by analyzing user input, past activity data, and even biometric information (e.g., facial expressions and tone of voice collected through a camera or microphone) to determine the user's emotional state.

[1864] User

[1865] If the sentiment engine determines that a customer is motivated to invest, the system will provide more detailed investment information and success stories to encourage investment activity. On the other hand, if a customer is in a state of stress or has doubts, the system will provide risk information and supportive messages.

[1866] Specific examples

[1867] If a user expresses interest in growing tomatoes but is nervous about investing, the sentiment engine will detect that and provide information about past success stories and risk mitigation strategies.

[1868] Investment project creation and management

[1869] User

[1870] The user uses the terminal to review the provided information and select the crops and farmland to invest in. Once the user's investment decision is sent to the server, the server generates an investment project and formulates a management plan for the selected farmland.

[1871] Specific examples

[1872] If a user decides to invest in a tomato cultivation project in a certain region, the server creates a specific cultivation plan based on that information and manages it as a project.

[1873] Farmland monitoring and management

[1874] server

[1875] The server collects real-time data from IoT devices and sensors to monitor the condition of the farmland, collecting data such as soil moisture, temperature, and nutrient levels, and generates an alert to notify the user if an abnormality is detected.

[1876] Specific examples

[1877] For example, if soil moisture falls below an optimum level, the server will automatically activate the irrigation system to provide the appropriate amount of water.

[1878] Providing efficient agricultural technology and know-how

[1879] server

[1880] Based on collected farmland data and market analysis data, the company provides efficient agricultural techniques and know-how via an online platform, allowing users to learn about the latest agricultural techniques.

[1881] User

[1882] Users can apply the provided know-how to their actual work and manage their farmland, and can also respond immediately based on monitoring results and alert information.

[1883] Specific examples

[1884] For example, you can learn the optimal planting spacing and fertilization schedule for tomatoes on the platform and then put it into practice in the field.

[1885] Harvesting, selling, and profit sharing

[1886] server

[1887] When the crops reach the harvesting period, the system plans and executes the harvesting work, delivers the harvested crops to the market, and tally up the sales profits and distribute them to users.

[1888] Terminal

[1889] Users can view the profits distributed through their accounts.

[1890] Specific examples

[1891] For example, when the tomato harvest is completed and a profit of 200,000 yen is earned from sales, a portion of that profit is transferred to the user's account and the user is notified that the profit distribution has been completed.

[1892] In this way, the present invention utilizes generative AI and an emotion engine to streamline various agricultural processes and provide an environment in which individual investors can easily enter the agricultural industry. The introduction of an emotion engine makes it possible to provide information and support suited to the user's psychological state, thereby improving the effectiveness of investment activities and agricultural management.

[1893] The processing flow will be explained below.

[1894] Step 1:

[1897] It collects climate analysis data such as temperature, precipitation, and sunshine hours from meteorological agency APIs and public weather databases.

[1898] The collected market analysis data and climate analysis data are stored in a database and prepared for data analysis.

[1899] Step 2:

[1900] server:

[1901] Generative artificial intelligence is used to analyze the collected market analysis data and climate analysis data.

[1902] Conduct demand and supply forecasts for crops and identify optimal crops.

[1903] Based on climate analysis data, the optimum cultivation areas for growing crops are identified.

[1904] Based on the analysis results, recommended crops and cultivation areas are determined, and a data format is created to provide the data to users.

[1905] Step 3:

[1906] server:

[1907] The analysis results are sent to a user-facing application.

[1908] Device:

[1909] The analysis results received from the server are displayed to the user, including recommended crops, recommended growing areas, and market demand analysis results.

[1910] The emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions and generates appropriate investment suggestions and support messages.

[1911] Step 4:

[1912] User:

[1913] Based on the analysis results and investment proposals presented, crops and farmland for investment are selected.

[1914] Enter the investment amount in the application and confirm your investment decision.

[1915] Device:

[1916] Data relating to the investment decision is transmitted to a server.

[1917] Step 5:

[1918] server:

[1919] Based on the user's investment decisions, an investment project is generated, including the selected farmland, crops, investment amount, and projected profits.

[1920] Develop a management plan for the farmland and set the required resources and work schedule.

[1921] Using an emotion engine, it analyzes users' emotions and investment motivation, and provides appropriate investment support and information to maintain motivation.

[1922] Specific examples

[1923] If the user decides to invest in tomato cultivation, the server creates a specific cultivation plan and provides the user with predicted profits and risk information.

[1924] Step 6:

[1925] server:

[1926] After the investment project is created, the progress of the project is provided to the user through a user interface.

[1927] Real-time data on farmland is collected through IoT devices and sensors, monitoring soil moisture, temperature, nutrient levels, and more.

[1928] If an abnormality is detected, an alert is generated and notified to the user.

[1929] Device:

[1930] Display project information and alert notifications in your account to prompt you to take necessary action.

[1931] Step 7:

[1932] User:

[1933] Receive alert notifications, take necessary action, and use online platforms to learn efficient farming techniques and know-how.

[1934] Put new technologies and methods into practice locally.

[1935] Specific examples

[1936] After users learn about irrigation methods for tomato cultivation, they can apply that information to actual farm management and ensure proper water supply.

[1937] Step 8:

[1938] server:

[1939] When the crop reaches harvest time, plan and execute the harvesting operations.

[1940] Ship the harvested crops to market and collect sales data.

[1941] Step 9:

[1942] server:

[1943] Profits from sales are tallied and distributed to users.

[1944] Profit sharing information will be notified to users.

[1945] Device:

[1946] Display the distributed profits in the user's account and notify them when the distribution is complete.

[1947] Specific examples

[1948] For example, when the tomato harvest is completed and a profit of 200,000 yen is earned from sales, a portion of that (for example, 50,000 yen) is transferred to the user's account, and the user is notified that the profit distribution has been completed.

[1949] In this way, the present invention utilizes generative artificial intelligence and an emotion engine to streamline a series of processes, from market analysis, climate analysis, investment plan creation, farmland management, harvesting, sales, and profit distribution, and provides an agricultural support system that provides information and support that adapts to the user's emotions.

[1950] Example 2

[1951] Next, a description will be given of Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the robot 414 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[1952] Modern agriculture and investment activities require advanced data analysis and real-time sentiment analysis to be efficient and effective. However, conventional technologies have difficulty integrating agricultural and investment data analysis, making it difficult to provide information and support that takes into account investors' daily emotional states. This has made it difficult for investors to make accurate decisions, often resulting in inefficient agricultural project management.

[1953] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the second embodiment is realized by the following means.

[1954] In this invention, the server includes means for collecting market analysis data using generative artificial intelligence and forecasting crop supply and demand, means for collecting climate analysis data using generative artificial intelligence and identifying optimal cultivation areas, means for presenting users with recommended crops and cultivation areas based on the collected market analysis data and climate analysis data, means for analyzing users' emotional data and providing information and support according to their psychological state, means for accepting users' investment decisions, selecting farmland and creating investment projects, and means for harvesting crops that have reached the harvest stage and shipping them to market and distributing the resulting profits to users. This allows users to receive highly accurate information that takes their emotional state into consideration, enabling more accurate and efficient investment and agricultural project management.

[1955] "Generative AI" is a type of AI technology used to collect, analyze, and predict data, specifically the ability to generate new information and patterns using generative models.

[1956] "Market analysis data" refers to data containing market information such as agricultural product prices, consumption, and import / export volumes, and is used to forecast agricultural supply and demand.

[1957] "Climate analysis data" refers to data containing information about the climate, such as temperature, precipitation, and hours of sunshine, that is used to identify optimal conditions for growing crops.

[1958] "Emotional data" refers to data that reflects the user's psychological state, and refers to information collected based on facial expressions, tone of voice, input content, etc.

[1959] "Agricultural land monitoring" is the process of using IoT devices and sensors to monitor agricultural land environmental data (e.g., soil moisture, temperature, and nutrient levels) in real time and responding if anomalies are detected.

[1960] An "online platform" is a collection of systems or services that can be accessed by users via the internet and that serve as a means of providing efficient agricultural technology and know-how.

[1961] An "investment project" is a planning and management framework generated by a user to invest in a specific crop and farmland, including the entire process from harvesting to sales and profit sharing.

[1962] An "alert" is a warning message that is sent to users when an abnormality is detected during agricultural land monitoring, and is intended to encourage a prompt response.

[1963] A "user interface" is the set of means and tools by which a user interacts with a system or service, allowing them to enter and retrieve information and view project status.

[1964] This invention is a system that combines generative artificial intelligence and an emotion engine, and by recognizing and analyzing the user's emotions, it provides effective investment and agricultural support. This system collects and analyzes various data, and not only provides users with optimal agricultural investment information, but also provides support according to the user's psychological state.

[1965] The server uses generative artificial intelligence (e.g., Google Cloud AI) to collect market analysis data. The market analysis data is obtained by scraping data such as crop prices, consumption, and import / export volumes from online agricultural crop price information websites and published statistical reports. Climate analysis data is also collected from meteorological agencies (e.g., the Japan Meteorological Agency) and APIs (e.g., OpenWeather API) to collect weather information such as temperature, precipitation, and sunshine hours.

[1966] The server integrates collected market analysis data and climate analysis data and analyzes the data using a generative AI model. This makes it possible to forecast crop demand and identify optimal cultivation areas. For example, the server may detect that the market price of tomatoes is on the rise this year, and determine from regional weather data that a certain region is suitable for tomato cultivation. Based on this information, it may recommend tomato cultivation to the user.

[1967] The server then uses an emotion engine (e.g., Azure Cognitive Services' Emotion API) to analyze the user's emotions in real time. It analyzes user input, past activity data, and biometric information collected through the camera and microphone, such as facial expressions and tone of voice, to identify the user's emotional state. For example, if a user expresses interest in growing tomatoes but is feeling anxious, the emotion engine will detect this anxiety and provide information about past success stories and risk mitigation measures.

[1968] The user uses a device (e.g., smartphone or PC) to check the provided information and select the crop and farmland in which to invest. When the user's investment decision is sent to the server, the server creates a specific cultivation plan for the selected farmland and crop as a project and manages it. For example, if the user decides to invest in a tomato cultivation project in a certain region, the server creates a specific cultivation plan based on that information and manages it as a project.

[1969] In addition, the server uses IoT devices (e.g., soil sensors, weather stations) to obtain real-time data on the managed farmland and monitor its condition. It collects data such as soil moisture, temperature, and nutrient levels, and generates alerts to notify users if an abnormality is detected. For example, if soil moisture falls below an appropriate level, the server automatically activates the irrigation system to provide the appropriate amount of water.

[1970] The server uses collected farmland data and market analysis data to provide efficient agricultural techniques and know-how via an online platform (e.g., Moodle). Users can use this platform to learn the latest agricultural techniques and apply them to their own work. For example, they can learn the optimal planting spacing and fertilization schedule for tomatoes on the platform and then put it into practice in the field.

[1971] When the crops reach harvest time, the server plans and executes the harvesting work and ships the harvested crops to market. The sales profits are tallied and distributed to users. Through the terminal, users can check their own accounts and confirm the distributed profits. For example, if the tomato harvest is complete and profits from sales are 200,000 yen, a portion of that will be transferred to the user's account and the user will be notified that the profit distribution has been completed.

[1972] In this way, the present invention utilizes generative AI and an emotion engine to streamline various agricultural processes and provide an environment in which individual investors can easily enter the agricultural industry. The introduction of an emotion engine makes it possible to provide information and support suited to the user's psychological state, thereby improving the effectiveness of investment activities and agricultural management.

[1973] Examples of specific prompts include the following:

[1974] 1. "Collect current market prices and consumption of tomatoes"

[1975] 2. "Collect climate data for the past year for a certain region."

[1976] 3. "If a user is interested in growing tomatoes, which areas are suitable for growing them?"

[1977] The flow of the identification process in the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.
