Systematic literature review: Agricultural digitalization, technological transformation towards efficient and sustainable agriculture

Abstract

Objective: The objective of this study was to utilize a literature review and the PRISMA methodology. Analyzing how agriculture can alleviate the world's food problems is crucial. The application of digital platforms, artificial intelligence, and sensors, with a strong emphasis on innovation and digitalization, provides tangible evidence of the impact of digital agriculture. Materials and Methods: This study comprehensively analyzes existing studies. Specific attention is given to policies encouraging digital technology adoption in agriculture, assessing challenges, studying policies from developed and developing nations to synthesize findings. Results: By the use of IoT, big data analytics, and AI, digital technology improves sustainability, productivity, and efficiency in agriculture. Benefits for both developed and developing countries are acknowledged, but issues like training and access continue. Legislators must enact laws and take other measures to foster favorable conditions. Digital technology adoption increases productivity and decision-making, but it also creates privacy issues. Infrastructure, education, and data protection should be the main focuses of government policy in order to promote fair and sustainable agricultural development. Conclusion: Adopting digital technology in agriculture on a large scale and improving global sustainability and efficiency require effective legislation. To advance the industry, recommendations include incorporating technical advancements into Indonesian agriculture laws based on successful worldwide experiences.
