An image processing analysis to segment and count the golden apple snails in paddy field was done in order to develop an intelligent robot for a rice production ecosystem. The Simulink models for counting snails were constructed for three different condition of the paddy and for the case they are mating. It was found useful to use the color of the reflection of the sunshine on the shells of the snails in the daytime and the color of the snail itself after raining at night in order to count the number of snails in paddy field by image processing. These models enable the robot to count the number of snails in paddy.
