FRUITING TREATMENT APPARATUS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fruiting treatment apparatus automatically spraying hormone preparation only to flower clusters of crops, and prevented from repeated spray treatment so as to carry out just a single spray treatment to the same flower cluster.SOLUTION: The fruiting treatment apparatus 1 includes: a camera 3 by which the image of the crops is taken; a spray portion 5 through which the hormone preparation is sprayed to the crops; a traveling portion 15 to which the camera 3 and the spray portion 5 are attached; and a controlling computer 19 for controlling the movement of each of the camera 3, the spray portion 5 and the traveling portion 15. The controlling computer 19 includes: an image processing nuit for specifying the position of the flower of the crop from the image taken by the camera 3; a moving unit for moving the spray portion 5 to a place decided based on the place of a flower specified by the image processing unit; and a data table for storing a position to which the hormone preparation is sprayed. The hormone preparation is not sprayed when the place decided based on the position of the flower is stored in the data table as a position where the hormone preparation is sprayed.
