ABSTRACT
Smart agriculture is a new trend in the utilisation of information and communication technology (ICT) in agricultural production. In light of rapid ICT development in terms of both infrastructure and application, traditional sectors are undergoing radical transformations. Many paradigm shifts can be discovered in the history of capitalism. One possible way to overcome obstacles is precision agriculture or intelligent farming. The technologies that underpin smart farming are still in early development, but there are many promising opportunities. Smart farming can be implemented on different maturity levels. Widespread adoption of smart farming technologies will take time, as it requires significant changes in practices and mindset, along with the modernisation of the equipment and supporting infrastructures. Milking and feeding robots will save human efforts, and autonomous solutions for greenhouse lighting or irrigation will save energy and water.
