Role of digital technologies in agriculture sector and the constraints being confronted by the farmers in Punjab, Pakistan
Precision agriculture, incorporating elements such as real-time data collection, Internet of Things (IoT), sensors, predictive modelling, and digital farm data, has been viewed as a positive step towards improving farm process efficiency. But this idea is limited to farming, but the current paradigm has to cover the entirety of the food chain. A new paradigm in the entire food systems cycle is expected to be established in India by digital agriculture, also known as Agriculture 4.0. Digital agriculture is an evolution of precision agriculture. It makes use of robotics, satellites, artificial intelligence (AI), big data, sensors, and the Internet of Things. The industries that make up the majority of the country's GDP, industry and services, have made great strides in utilising digital technologies, whereas agriculture has not kept up. Better crop varieties, sound agronomic methods, effective livestock management, agricultural finance and marketing, processing, value chain management, and the creation of
