Abstract

With the increasing food demand, water scarcity, inefficient resource management, but also climate change, agriculture is facing serious problems. The situation gets even worse as time passes by due to several reasons, including the actual context of wars. As the key basis for several populations and Economies, opting for concrete actions to ensure a sustainable future is a must. The inclusion of digital technologies in agriculture was proposed by several researchers and practitioners. However, there is no clear response on the link between digital transformation and agriculture. Moreover, this research era is still scarce, with more limitations regarding the MENA region. Considered among the most affected regions by climate change, but also with a high dependence rate on agriculture, exploring how digital technologies can help to achieve better agriculture and more sustainability in MENA countries remains important. This chapter provides an integrative approach to the existing literature on this topic.
