Analysis of key technologies of digital transformation in agriculture

Abstract

The implementation of digital transformation in agriculture is currently realized through the implementation of a set of digital technologies, which are interrelated with each other, within the concepts of smart agriculture and precision farming. It should be noted that the use of individual components of precision farming has been carried out for the last two decades, but at present the issues concerning the widespread distribution of integrated solutions in sustainable crop production of resource-saving nature, involving the use of various sensor devices, unmanned and automated machinery, various robotic production systems, the Internet of things, platform technologies for the realization of the digital economy are becoming more and more relevant. The fundamental task of the digital transformation in agriculture is to obtain the most important information about the state of the internal and external environment, in relation to the generated arrays of big data. Cloud platforms and big data solutions are essential to this task. In addition, the support systems used for management decision-making and the technologies of predictive analytics play a significant role.
