Agriculture and forestry was a priority area for early delivery, anchored on Malaysia's palm oil sector and the goal of positioning the country as a world leader in AI-driven supply-chain management.
National AI Use Cases — Agriculture & Forestry
Project 1 — AI-Driven Supply Chain Management for Palm Oil
An AI-driven autonomous procurement and inventory-management system spanning plantations, mills, refineries and distribution, intended to optimise profitability and minimise supply-chain inefficiency across the palm oil value chain.
Project 2 — Autonomous Robotics in Oil Palm Harvesting
An integrated autonomous harvesting system to sustain plantation productivity despite labour shortages, combining an unmanned ground vehicle with an intelligent fresh-fruit-bunch grabber and fertiliser sprayer, harvesting exoskeletons to reduce worker load, drones for plantation inspection and yield prediction, and a centralised data-monitoring dashboard.
