<![CDATA[Chili peppers and papayas are important horticultural commodities in Indonesia with high economic value. To enhance productivity and efficiency in cultivating these crops, the application of Smart Farming technology is crucial. This study evaluates the use of image processing and artificial intelligence in the pre-harvest and post-harvest processes for chili peppers and papayas. For the pre-harvest process, data from 50 images of ripe chili peppers on the plant were used. The counting of ripe chilies was performed using HSV color segmentation with two masking processes, resulting in an average accuracy of 82.58%. In the post-harvest phase, 30 images of papayas, consisting of 10 images for each ripeness category—unripe, half-ripe, and ripe—were used. Papaya ripeness classification was carried out using the Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm with a Radial Basis Function (RBF) kernel and parameters C = 10 and γ = 10-3, achieving perfect classification accuracy of 100% for all categories. This study underscores the significant potential of Industry 4.0 technologies in enhancing agricultural practices and efficiency in the horticultural sector, providing important contributions to optimizing chili pepper and papaya production.]]>
