Digitalization trends in the agricultural industry

Abstract

As a result of the digital transformation of agricultural enterprises, the economic and environmental efficiency of production and provision of services is increasing. Currently, Industry 4.0 technologies are changing the nature of agricultural enterprises, integrating intelligent technologies into the agricultural production. The purpose of the study is to analyze the impact of Industry 4.0 technologies on agricultural enterprises. The digital transformation of the agricultural industry is a key tool for increasing efficiency in a rapidly changing market under growing competition and tightening requirements. Digitalization is not a new phenomenon for the industry; it is changing the existing architecture of interactions between the participants. The ongoing processes ensure the automation of routine and dangerous operations, the digitalization of physical and business processes, the end-to-end integration of all processes and more flexible management. At the same time, digital transformation has its own characteristics in each segment of the agricultural industry.

Space monitoring in precision agriculture

“…The use of such approaches has a positive effect on the ecological state of soils, allows you to use each hectare of land as productively as possible, to involve unproductive land in the production process [13]. Precision farming makes it possible to implement a resource-efficient approach in crop production, qualitatively improve the efficiency of regional process management in agriculture and increase productivity [8].…”

“…One of the ways to implement sustainable development in agriculture is the transition to precision farming, which allows you to accurately assess a number of factors affecting the level of yield, such as the state of crops, the level of fertility and moisture of land, diseases and damage to plants, as well as to respond quickly to their dynamics [8]. Obtaining an array of data is carried out by remote sensing methods using unmanned aerial vehicles and space monitoring data [9].…”

Using Agile in Implementing Agriculture AI Projects and Farm Management

“…The agricultural industry in recent years witnessed rapid development driven by technological advancements, which revolutionised traditional farming practices, enabling farmers to improve their productivity and efficiency (Rimma et al, 2020;Rasputina, 2022).…”

Review on agriculture 4.0: Exploring the digital transformation of the agriculture supply chain

“…This digitalization of agriculture supply chains, often referred to as Agri 4.0. This transformation encompasses the seamless integration of digital technologies, harmonizing the intertwined principles of precision farming and smart agriculture (Rasputina, 2022) [46] . Blockchain technology, can be used to solve the problem of traceability and visibility of agri-food products (Kurucz, 2021) [31] .…”
