Raise your hand if you've ever had an avocado that was too hard and under ripe one day and become too squishy seemingly overnight. Or maybe you wanted a sandwich for lunch, but the lettuce that seemed fine at the supermarket was suddenly soggy and old. Post-harvest researcher Tie Liu, an assistant professor with the University of Florida Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, knows the struggle. And he wants to help. Liu is studying the possibility of creating a handheld or wearable device to test food freshness beyond what human senses are capable of finding. "I've seen this many ti...
AI may help UF researchers identify crop-destroying nematodes Parasitic nematodes cause $125 billion in agricultural damage around the world each year, but University of Florida scientists hope to alleviate some of that destruction. To do so, UF researchers will use artificial intelligence (AI) to try to more rapidly identify nematodes. Some nematodes live in the ground and harm plants, while others are beneficial, so it is important to distinguish which ones are which, said Peter DiGennaro, a UF/IFAS assistant professor of entomology and nematology. The research, led by DiGennaro and Alina...
