How does AI combine with automation for the use of the food industry?

Introduction

The basic thing with the food industry is producing stuff for large numbers everyday human labor is not sufficient for this that's by machines are introduced  
in the 19th century for different uses.
In the food industry machine are updated in the form of input-output way, we see Automation machines in the food industry for years.

Did you see the show food factory, Food tech ??

If you did not watch let me tell you about this show, the automated machine shows with human control, in that kind of show you learn how technology takes part in producing daily life products
in the show Food tech, the host Bobby Bognar shows from raw food to plate journey
they display how the food grows, harvest, produce & pack, and comes to the plate most of the episodes we see lots of heavy machines that work to deliver the final food products.
    
Food industry Division
 

The food industry is defined as an integration of productiondistribution, processing, conversion, preparation, preservation, transport, certification, and packaging of foodstuffs.


To better understand the food industry
Divide the food industry on the basics of consumption into two types 
Plant-based & Animal-based, we are dependent on these two types of food for a living, You see the chart of how we divide the food industry on the basics of consumption in the plant we consume leaves, roots, fruit, flower, and animal milk, egg, meat, fish, honey.
So now we know which kind of food we consume but how they produce all kinds of food for everyone.

Production with AI integrated Automation system


A production system is simply a combination of workers, machines, and Automation AI-integrated software this is called a production system.

How many methods do you know to produce plant-based food??

We produce plant-based food with a different technique and how Ai can combine with those systems:

Smart farming, Greenhouse Farming, Hydroponics Farming, Aerophonics farming & Vertical Farming those types of distinct techniques are used to produce plant-based food. If we differentiate the technique to acknowledge how AI combines. now simply divide the technique as Smart farming and Greenhouse farming In addition, maybe Hydroponics farming, Vertical farming, and Aeroponics farming is a subtypes of Greenhouse Farming

Farm vector created by macro vector

Basically "Smart farming" is a combination of IOT[internet of things], GPS tracking, Automated vehicles
, RPA(Robotic process automation)
IoT is a physical network of objects or machine-like servers, software, Automation, and technologies to connect and share data for analytics and combine the interface of IoT with AI to help smart decisions.

What do you understand by the term "AI smart decision"? 
comment your answer 

Automation machines a.k.a Automation tractors, and drones(aerial seeding,, robots are helping to increase production, and reduce the time of planting or seeding, harvesting, and also packing the product.

Artificial Intelligence interconnected with automation gives you wings to get more productive. They help you to make smart decisions with help of the analytical data of the farm.

A general definition of Greenhouse farming

"Greenhouse farming" is the unique farm practice of growing crops within sheltered structures covered by a transparent, or partially transparent, material. The main purpose of greenhouses is to provide favorable growing conditions and to protect crops from unfavorable weather and various pests. Some more farming techniques they grew their crop under some favorable conditions a.k.a

 "Hydroponics Farming" Hydroponics is a type of horticulture and a subset of hydroculture, which is a method of growing plants, usually crops, without soil, by using mineral nutrient solutions in an aqueous solvent.                   "Aeroponics farming"Aeroponic growing refers to plants grown in an air culture that can develop and grow in a normal and natural manner.                      "Vertical Farming"Vertical farming is the practice of growing crops in vertically stacked layers. It often incorporates controlled-environment agriculture, which aims to optimize plant growth, and soilless farming techniques such as hydroponics, aquaponics, and aeroponics.                                                                  

AI Automation in controlled farming

When we are talking about controlling farming techniques mostly need machines to do that take a look at the process and let me include automation to help you to complete control over your environment,
when ai combines with the system everything goes in one click automation system controlled the water system, vent, cooling, irrigation, temperature, CO₂, and roof.

Animal-based products


Based on the consumption chart, we consume dairy products or made from dairy products, eggs, meat, seafood, and honey.

when we talk about dairy, eggs, meat, seafood, and honey they have separate ways to produce those kinds of foods stuff, step by step we understand those ways

Milk industry

first, we talk about dairy farming: Automatic milking system AMS helpful in increasing productivity, automated milk storing and packing system in that kind system Ai controlled or connected with those systems they give the data about everything is perfectly doing good sometimes we have questions about production rate, quality of the products and also blunders Ai notify answer of these questions, we get our daily, weekly, monthly and yearly analytical data with just with this simple system and also provide an area for cows to do physical activities seems to happy also with their calf they should get their proper diet also your team is tried connected with their calf and mother so you get positivity from the farm.


Now eggs, meat, and seafood:  I am not able to write on these industries after reading PETA posts they tell the truth about how you get this foodstuff so tried to be vegan.

 


Food products manufacturing with AI 

 

illustration of the bread industry with Automation and AI 

Food products as from raw to food products take the example of the bread industry to understand 
for making bread we need flour, salt, sugar, and yeast to make that 
these all stuff put in hoper and mix it well to make a dough and finally bake the dough after that you get your bread sorry for that I am not trying to tell you a recipe but trying to tell the producer with a machine all raw products put it in a machine they make big fatty heavy dough now this heavy dough cut into smaller portions for baking a long chamber of a belt of the baking system and cutting the baked dough in bread after a packing line turn it on the package your bread now it ready to deliver

As you see in the image how AI-controlled all process and analysis of production as every different type of industry need different AI for their automation system.
