A Review of Mechanization and Automation in Malaysia’s Pineapple Production

Abstract: This work reviews the current state of the art for pineapple production in Malaysia from the perspective of mechanization and automation. It examines the issues and challenges facing this industry. The review has led us to the conclusion that pineapple production still relies heavily on manual labour. The problems facing this industry is no different than other food crops in that low yield labour and high cost are the primary issues that need to be tackled. Although numerous engineering research work to overco… Show more

“…[9] As stated again, by using automation technologies, farmers can determine soil properties before planting suckers, which is useful for making operation decisions. Lack of experience to handle technologies and management skills from farmers affect the operation process, which indicate low level of technology usage in the field [10]. The environment has an impact on pineapple production and contributes to many losses of fresh fruits, particularly during the harvesting process, which consists of several stages [11].…”
