The main trends of digitalization in agriculture

Abstract

Abstract Digitalization processes are currently being increasingly introduced into various sectors of the national economy, including the agricultural sector. Agriculture has traditionally been a costly industry and has always had large losses throughout the entire production process, which led to a decrease in production efficiency. Digitalization in agriculture is designed to solve the vast majority of these problems and significantly increase the profitability of the industry. Digitalization helps to cover the whole range of actions, automate processes, cover the fullness of information, bring it into a single system, process it promptly, clearly monitor all processes, significantly reduce the loss of resources of all kinds, completely eliminate the corruption component. Digitalization makes it possible to constantly monitor any process in crop production, animal husbandry, processing, logistics and prevent the development of some negative phenomena. Field monitoring involves monitoring the qualitative characteristics of soils and crops, crop rotation management, recommendations for crop rotation planning, helps to trace the entire cycle of work from planting to harvesting, including logistics. Since there are large losses of agricultural products in the process of moving products, it seems appropriate to use digital technologies in logistics, which should significantly increase production efficiency. Control of finished products involves accounting for the harvest (from field to weight), monitoring the progress of the harvesting campaign, the amount of harvest for each field separately, the production of each employee, accounting for the work of carriers.
