“…In developing countries, access to technology is limited due to the digital divide, as cited by Engås et al (2023) [18]; this coincides with Siddharth et al (2021) [198], in which the foundations of future sustainable agriculture are laid in artificial intelligence strategies that integrate agricultural data. However, the heterogeneity of agricultural technologies should not be underestimated, as mentioned by Straete et al (2022) [46].…”

“…In each stage of evolution, agricultural yield has been improved in tandem with agricultural scientific/technological development. In [45], it is established that the next phase of the evolution of agricultural technology is the autonomous management of the field; because the agricultural sector is transitioning towards "smart agriculture" from the adoption of emerging technologies [46]. In [47], it states that agri-food systems are being transformed in order to provide healthier, more affordable, and safer diets aligned with sustainable production.…”

Guaranteeing food security from agriculture in an uncertain context, derived from the effects of multiple factors, is a challenge. Traditional agricultural production is the one that faces the greatest challenges, derived from the scarce evolution in agricultural practices, despite being the one that contributes the most to the availability of food, at 80%. This systematic review aims to identify and analyze agrotechnological systems belonging to precision agriculture, which may be potentially adaptable to traditional rural agriculture. Contributions that improved crop yields from scientific and technological studies were analyzed. The PRISMA statement was used as a formal outline to collect and analyze 114 studies from the period 2018-2023. From the review, it was identified that there is a growing trend in the adoption of intelligent systems that help producers in the management of crops, accentuated in the increase of crop yield, in the determination of product quality, and in the management of water resources, mainly. Likewise, it was identified that the preponderant approach is the monitoring and control of crop development. This is achieved through emerging technologies, such as the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, and machine learning, with information mainly collected by sensors embedded in drones, algorithms, decision support systems, sensors, and Arduino technology systems. Finally, this review shows that there are five viable systems that can be adapted to traditional agriculture to strengthen agricultural production. Therefore, the adoption of scientific-technological contributions from precision agriculture contributes to ensuring food security.INDEX TERMS Agricultural applications, food security, precision agriculture.

“…However, the effect of export trade on agricultural TFP is not entirely positive. For example, the increase in production scale may make producers reluctant to introduce further innovation inputs (Venkataraman et al, 2019) and the sloppy export approach may also hinder the improvement of TFP (Straete et al, 2022). Based on the above analysis, this study proposes hypothesis 1.…”

Improving agricultural total factor productivity is essential to achieving the high-quality and sustainable development of agriculture. As major global agricultural producers, the G20 countries play an important role in agricultural product trade and development. As such, it is well-positioned to play a positive role in improving agricultural total factor productivity. This paper uses the DEA-Malmquist index method to measure agricultural total factor productivity (TFP) in G20 countries from 2010 to 2019, and analyzes the impact of agricultural trade on TFP using the two-way fixed effects model. It finds that (1) the main source of agricultural TFP growth in G20 countries is technical progress, while the effect of technical efficiency on agricultural TFP is not obvious. (2) Agricultural trade can significantly improve agricultural TFP growth in G20 countries, and the effect is more obvious in developed countries. From the perspective of trade flow, the positive effect of export trade on agricultural TFP is stronger. (3) The institutional environment strengthens the improvement effect of agricultural trade on agricultural TFP. Thus, this study not only provides valuable insight into the relationship between agricultural trade and agricultural productivity, but also offers a strong argument in favor of the formulation of relevant policies to improve agricultural productivity and promote a more sustainable agricultural sector.

“…The analytical method was solely based on the five stages of the adoption decision process in innovation diffusion theory (IDT) (Shang et al, 2021). IDT explains why and how quickly new ideas and technology spread through social systems (Straete et al, 2022). Everett Rogers introduced this theory in his book "Diffusion of Innovations" in 1962 (Glover, Unleashing the Power of Digital Farming: A Local …..

A new challenge has emerged: how to implement innovations in agriculture? The expansion of digital technology has created new opportunities within the agricultural sector, particularly for young farmers, enabling the integration of information and communication technology into digital farming. Employing innovation diffusion theory, this study seeks to ascertain how young farmers perceive the integration of digital technology into various aspects of farming and how these views influence the formation of sustainable value creation. The study area was determined purposively, and this research utilized the case study method by interviewing 80 respondents. The data were analyzed using structural equations and partial least squares models. Using the innovation diffusion theory, the results unveiled that knowledge, persuasion, decision, implementation, and confirmation from young farmers significantly and positively affected the sustainable value creation.
