Growth prediction device and growth prediction method

Abstract

A growth prediction device includes a stage predictor configured or programmed to predict a growth stage for a crop, and a definer configured or programmed to define, when a period from a reference date to an accomplishment date of the growth stage includes a specific growth stage, a threshold value that indicates a prediction date for the specific growth stage with respect to transition data for the growth stage predicted by the stage predictor. When predicting a next growth stage, the stage predictor is configured or programmed to predict a date on which transition data for the next growth stage reaches the threshold value to be the specific growth stage.
