AgriTech: Prospects and challenges of robotics, artificial intelligence and 5G technologies in agriculture
Abstract
This paper focuses on the prospects and challenges of emerging agricultural technologies and provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of agricultural technology. This review paper examines the potential benefits and risks of robotics, artificial intelligence (AI), and 5G technology applications in agriculture. It provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of Agricultural Technology trends, including the most promising applications. This paper highlights the use of robots, drones and AI algorithms in precision agriculture, crop monitoring, autonomous agriculture, live-stock monitoring, and farm-to-table logistics. The challenge, however, is a lack of reliable infrastructure, effective data management, and a clear regulatory framework. The study comes to the conclusion that although AgriTech has the potential to increase agricultural sustainability and production, its use will present some difficulties. AgriTech innovations can only be fully realized by inculcating more research and development.
