Smart Agriculture Research Center Holds ANSYS Training: Optimizing Technology for Indoor Farming

Yogyakarta, November 5-6, 2024 – Smart Agriculture Research Center (SmartAgri) at Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM) recently conducted intensive training on the use of ANSYS software with a focus on applications in indoor farming. This training aims to enhance students' technical skills in modern engineering analysis and optimization of agricultural technology.
SmartAgri, known for its various innovations in sustainable agriculture, continues to work toward integrating advanced technology into agricultural practice. ANSYS, a leading software tool in engineering simulation, was used in this training to model and analyze various important aspects of indoor farming systems. This approach aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly in increasing agricultural productivity and addressing climate change.
The training was designed to deepen students' understanding of how to use ANSYS to optimize resource use in indoor farming. With these skills, participants are expected to implement more efficient and environmentally friendly technology in their agricultural practice. This is particularly important given the increasing impact of climate change on resource management.
ANSYS Applications in Agricultural Simulation

During the training sessions, participants learned how to use ANSYS to model air distribution, irrigation systems, and other environmental conditions. The accurate simulations provided by this technology help farmers ensure optimal conditions for plant growth, reduce water resource waste, and ultimately increase productivity. This is highly relevant given the growing food security challenges facing the world.
The ANSYS training conducted by SmartAgri not only enhanced students' technical skills but also strengthened UGM's commitment to promoting sustainable agriculture. By leveraging advanced technology such as ANSYS, SmartAgri hopes to continue innovating and supporting more efficient and environmentally friendly agricultural practices.
The Importance of Technology in Agriculture and Productivity Optimization

As the agricultural sector faces mounting pressure from climate change, initiatives like this training are crucial. They equip the next generation of agricultural professionals with the tools and knowledge needed to adapt and
