خريجات من جامعة جدة يفزن بالمركز الأول في هاكاثون AgentX بمنصة ذكاء اصطناعي لإدارة المشاتلUniversity of Jeddah graduates win first place at the AgentX hackathon with an AI platform for running plant nurseries

Four University of Jeddah graduates won first place at the third edition of the AgentX AI hackathon for employment and business solutions, held in the Eastern Province, according to the Al-Jazirah newspaper. Their project uses AI to run plant nurseries, automate their operations and manage data and resources better.

The idea is a single digital platform for recording data and tracking seedlings, stock and orders, linking workers, supervisors and central management in one system. The aim is to organise daily operations, make production easier to follow and provide data for better decisions.

In its current phase the project targets the nurseries of the National Center for Vegetation Cover Development and Combating Desertification, as well as other nurseries that need to unify their data and improve how they track operations and production. The graduates hope to expand the platform to large farms later.

The newspaper says the project's value goes beyond digitising paperwork: it also means less waste, easier tracking of production stages and a clearer view of what is needed. Nurseries matter because they produce plants for tree-planting and environmental restoration projects. The team is two software engineering graduates and two data science graduates.
