“…As industrial tomato greenhouse main KPI is the produced crop amount that can be sold on market, greenhouse agronomists must have appropriate monitoring tools and control systems in order to achieve the best production results. The main systems to be monitored are indoor/outdoor climate, natural and artificial lighting amount, studies also show that irrigation and mineral nutrients [1] are important factors, and the biomass (incl. fruit weight) growth and tomato plant health, where fluctuating asymmetry could be used [2].…”

Industrial greenhouses are integrating various Internet of Things (IoT) based sensor technologies to create cloud-based database solutions. Industrial greenhouse control systems are no exception in this regard, as they have recently become more and more popular with the use of various sensors including different types of weight sensors for automation of vegetable and other crop cultivation processes. One of the most important factors hindering the wider implementation of weighting systems in the greenhouse is their high price, where the largest costs are related to the weighing sensors themselves. In addition to the price factor, weight sensor systems on the market are often characterized by known structural and functional limitations, which can be solved if developing a new weighting system. The authors have created and installed IoT based weight sensor modules (TWS) to monitor different weight changes in time, such as irrigation cycle amount or daily tomato yield/weight increase values in real tomato greenhouse of "Latgales darzenu logistika" (further LDL) in Mezvidi parish, with a total growing area of 5062.4 m 2 . This article reveals the test results that are related to measurement stability in 3-year period, measuring the weight parameters 24/7. As a reference, a constant weight was attached to one sensor all the time, and all of them were affected by the industrial greenhouse environment (temperature, humidity, etc). Furthermore, TWS readings were analysed and compared to real greenhouse crop yield data during the growing season (10 months) in weekly periods, allowing to asses potential application of TWS for automatic crop yield evaluation and this data usage for greenhouse control systems or their control algorithm correction issues, with the general aim to raise the level of process automation, quality, energy efficiency, and other important parameters.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of biochars obtained by pyrolysis of the tomato harvest residues at different temperatures on some available nutrient concentrations of soil. For this purpose, biochars were obtained by pyrolysis of the tomato harvest residues at 500 and 700° C for 80 minutes. The biochars were applied to the parcels prepared in 50x50 cm dimensions under field conditions to 3 tons per decare and they were left to stand in natural conditions. 2 months after the application, soil samples were taken in 4 periods at one-month intervals. In these examples, plant available and/or extractable nutrients were determined. According to the results, it was observed that biochar applications did not affect the nutrient concentrations of the soil and had a negative effect on some nutrients. The pyrolysis temperatures had no effect on the efficiency of biochar on soil nutrient concentration.
