This paper describes the second stage of an end-to-end system integrating modern hardware and software tools for precise monitoring and control of soil conditions. In the proposed framework, the data are collected by the sensor network distributed in the soil of a commercial strawberry farm to infer the ultimate physicochemical characteristics of the fruit at the point of harvest around the sensor locations. Empirical and statistical models are jointly investigated in the form of neural networks and Gaussian process regression models to predict the most significant physicochemical qualities of strawberry.
