Abstract [en]

It is difficult for a small scaled local farmer to support him- or herself. In this investigation a program was devloped to help the small scaled farmer Janne from Sala to keep an energy efficient greenhouse. The program applied machine learning to make predictions of future temperatures in the greenhouse. When the temperature was predicted to be dangerously low for the plants and crops Janne was warned via a HTML web page. To make an as accurate prediction as possible different machine learning algorithm methods were evaluated. XGBoost was the most efficient and accurate method with an cross validation value at 2.33 and was used to make the predictions. The data to train the method with was old data inside and outside the greenhouse provided from the consultancy Bitroot and SMHI. To make predictions in real time weather forecast was collectd from SMHI via their API. The program can be useful for a farmer and can be further developed in the future.
