So far, the results show that the monitoring system is operating stably, continuously transmitting data to the control center via SaaS software and mobile applications.

On rice plants, the system can identify more than 20 different insect species with 11-12 harmful organisms (brown planthoppers, white-backed planthoppers, zigzag planthoppers, black-tailed green planthoppers, black stink bugs, small leaf rollers, etc.); 6-7 common natural enemies (carnivorous water bugs, three-cavity ants, etc.)

On fruit trees, the system mainly identifies pests such as green beetles, two-spotted green leafhoppers, fruit flies, leaf-eating butterflies, etc.

Local officials discussed further the operation and expansion of the monitoring system.

After listening to the presentations of the units and companies, Ms. Dang Thi Thuy, Deputy Director of the Provincial Department of Agriculture and Environment, said: "The initial implementation of the system shows the feasibility, effectiveness and potential for expansion in monitoring, predicting and forecasting plant pests. Thereby, helping farmers understand the laws of pest development, thereby applying appropriate, timely and cost-saving prevention measures. The success of the model is a testament to modern management thinking, based on data and digital technology . This is a concrete step for Dak Lak province to move towards digitalized, sustainable and effective agriculture."
