Jeju is producing dairy products using artificial intelligence (AI).
Jeju Special Self-Governing Province and Jeju Technopark recently announced on the 20th that they have been selected for the 'AI Autonomous Manufacturing Leading Project' organized by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy, and will promote the digital transformation of dairy processing manufacturing processes with a budget of KRW 12.7 billion. The selected project is 'AI-Based Manufacturing Process Optimization Technology Development for Quality Management of Small Quantity, Diverse Variety Dairy Products,' and it will be conducted from this month until December 2029.
AI autonomous manufacturing is a next-generation manufacturing environment that realizes the advancement and autonomy of production by linking robots and digital equipment to the manufacturing process based on AI.
The project involves Jeju Milk, which faced limitations in productivity improvement and quality management due to outdated facilities, applying AI technology to the entire process from raw milk production to collection and processing. Specifically, it plans to create a smart dairy environment that ensures both quality consistency and production efficiency through the establishment of an AI-based intelligent manufacturing system, real-time collection and analysis of raw milk quality data, AI sales forecasting technology, collaborative robot packaging, and integrated management of specifications by breed.
Kim Nam-jin, Director of the Innovation Industry Bureau of Jeju Province, stated, "The establishment of an AI autonomous manufacturing system will serve as an opportunity to lead the digital transformation of Jeju's dairy industry," adding, "We will actively support local dairy farmers in sharing data and enhancing technology to create a sustainable agricultural and livestock ecosystem through the introduction of AI technology."
Meanwhile, Jeju Milk successfully produced milk with 100% renewable energy (RE100) for the first time nationwide last month.
