The article “Thinking about an Automatic Nutrient Dosing System for your commercial grow? Here’s what you need to know” (Advanced Nutrients, 2023) introduces an automatic nutrient dosing system in the hydroponics industry. This system is a “mechanized nutrient delivery system” that delivers an accurate amount of nutrient solution to crops. Among its benefits, this system eliminates human error and the reduction of overall workloads (MORR, 2023). It also saves money in the long run as this system can bring about increased yield of higher quality crops while reducing waste of water and nutrients. The smart controller in the automated nutrient dosing system has provided undeniable benefits by working in unison  with other features of the system such as the pumps and sensor. One of the main features of the automated nutrient dosing system is its smart controller. It is the brain of the system where it controls other features of the system such as the pump modules and a variety of sensors t

  The article “Thinking about an Automatic Nutrient Dosing System for your commercial grow? Here’s what you need to know” (Advanced Nutrients, 2023) introduces an automatic nutrient dosing system. This system is a “mechanized nutrient delivery system” that delivers an accurate amount of nutrient solution to crops. One Crucial feature of the Automated Nutrient Dosing System is its smart controllers. It is the brain of the system where it controls other key features of the system such as the pump modules and sensors. (Ag-Con, 2023) It also has cloud connectivity, which allows the user to monitor their plants in real time and control the dosing system remotely. Among its benefits, this system eliminates human error and the reduction of overall workloads (MORR, 2023). It also saves money in the long run as this system can bring about increased yield of higher quality crops while reducing waste of water and nutrients.

Shaun and I have decided to research the indoor farming system because we felt it was relevant to Singapore. To kickstart our research, we relied on ChatGPT to provide us with an overview of different technologies and mechanisms used in indoor farming systems.  With the help of ChatGPT, we decided to narrow down to an automated nutrient delivery system. Using google and YouTube, we managed to gain more insights on the features of this automated nutrient delivery system. We then googled some indoor farms in Singapore using this technology and also companies that produce this delivery system. From this process, we also found out that the Singapore food agency (SFA) has a ‘30 by 30’ goal. The goal is to build up Singapore’s indoor farming systems such that it is capable of producing 30 percent of Singapore’s nutritional needs sustainably by 2030. From the articles, we have also identified the benefits and limitations of the system.

 

Subject: Introductory letter Dear Brad Blackstone, I am Chan Zheng Da Kevin, a student from your module, Critical Thinking and Communicating-S21 . I am writing this letter to formally introduce myself and also to share some reflections about me. Since young, I have always liked to do activities that are hands-on such as building Lego blocks and servicing my own bicycle. This has led to me taking on studies related to engineering. During my polytechnic years, I took Engineering with Business as my diploma so that I could widen my horizon in the field of engineering while also exploring the options I had in the field of business. After graduating, I felt that I was more interested in the field of engineering, so I decided to pursue further by choosing Mechanical Engineering for my degree. As for my communication skills, I feel that I am strong and an active listener. I feel that I am able to empathise with the speaker about what he or she is relaying to me and I also find it interesting
