Digitization in Agriculture: A Timely Challenge for Ecological Perspectives

Abstract

The main focus of political debates on digital agriculture has been on environmental sustainability. So far, the literature has primarily ignored social sustainability, notably labor issues. This is worrisome because digitization may fundamentally alter farming techniques and labor processes, potentially affecting rural development, rural communities, and migratory workers. It examines how digital technology affects labor in horticulture and agricultural fields. To incorporate labor into the debates around agriculture and digitalization, this article provides a detailed picture of how digital technologies affect agricultural labor. Results suggest new forms of labor management, intensification of work processes, and risks of working-class fragmentation along age lines. Digitalization has not resulted in worker or farmer deskilling. The claim of greater worker dependency due to reduced agricultural employment possibilities is disputed. The importance of creating agricultural policies that promote fair and equitable working conditions.

Business Prospect of Recycling Household Wastage: A Study on Gopalganj District of Bangladesh

“…People of this country mostly depend on chemical fertilizer so that they can produce more crops in a lower possible time and less effort (Adusumalli, 2018;Alizadeh et al, 2022). The farmer's, who have almost no scientific knowledge about cultivation, intention is not bad but the effects of their used chemical fertilizer is long lasting and causes various problems such as, this decreases actual land productivity in long run as well as decreases food quality (Adusumalli & Pasupuleti, 2017).…”

High technological design and application for autistic children

“…Compared to adults, kids utilize more interfaces alone. This may be because adults still use the same technology they had as youngsters and haven't expanded their interface options (Adusumalli, 2018). Given that we expect autistic adults to reside at home with their families, our adult group may contain more persons with learning difficulties and other complex needs.…”

Advanced Metering Infrastructure Data: Overviews for the Big Data Framework

“…The majority of the time, reference designs serve as a template for generating solutions in an orderly manner in a certain field, and they can be utilized for comparison and alignment (Pasupuleti & Amin, 2018). As a result of pulling together similar characteristics identified in diverse documented case studies from throughout the world, NIST has determined on a particular architecture (Adusumalli, 2018). Aspects of the reference architecture depicted in Figure 1 include broad concerns about Data Analytics, including its implications and requirements, and other general considerations.…”
