The final result was dependent on three factors: the net profit (the sales price for the harvested cucumbers minus the costs for energy, water, labor, etc.), the use of AI (was the algorithm new or was the computer program robust enough) and sustainability (such as: the amount of water, CO2 and energy used per ki
