Agriculture 4.0 represents the fourth agriculture revolution that uses digital technologies and moves toward a smarter, more efficient, environmentally responsible sector. Agricultural have emerged to enhance sustainability discover effective farm methods. This encompasses all digitalisation automation processes in business our daily lives, including Big Data, Artificial Intelligence (AI), robots, Internet of Things (IoT), virtual augmented reality. These technological advancements are having profound impact on lives. From technical standpoint, it brings us precision agriculture. provides data-driven strategy for efficiently growing maintaining crops cultivable land, enabling farmers use most resources at their disposal. Throughout supply chain, operations create massive volumes data. Most this information was previously untouched, but with help big data technologies, such can be used improve performance production any crop. Depending crop type its growth needs, digitised harvesters handle huge areas various situations, particularly paper is brief about condition. Smart farming, Various key specific domains Exploring Domain discussed detail and, finally, identified significant applications technologies. essential lives since they simplify duties without recognising them.

In the last few years, while COVID-19 pandemic affects food supply chains around world, agriculture sector also has faced many global problems, such as warming, environmental pollution, climate change, and weather disasters. It known that technological opportunities are available for human beings to get out of these predicaments, solving interconnections between food-water-energy- nexus, achieving agricultural transformation from traditional digital. The aim this review is gain holistic solutions in a systematic view, based on water-energy-food resources digital will play role sustainable development. transition primitive given with road maps covering industrial revolutions at four stages timeline. Digital combined under precision Agriculture 4.0 handled domains monitoring, control, prediction, logistics. technologies explained application examples Internet Things (IoT), cloud computing, big data, artificial intelligence, decision support systems, etc. Wearable sensor technologies, real-time monitoring systems tracking whole conditions animals livestock, IoT-based irrigation fertilization help enhance efficiency processes minimize water fertilizer losses fields greenhouses, blockchain-based electronic agriculture, drones robotics reduce herbicide pesticide use systematically. Moreover, renewable energy be provided synergy agrivoltaics aquavoltaics combining production rural explained, besides solar-powered pivot drip systems.

Requirements engineering (RE) is a key area to address sustainability concerns in system development. Approaches have been proposed elicit requirements from interested stakeholders before design. However, existing strategies lack the proper high-level view deal with societal and long-term impacts of transformation entailed by introduction new technological solution. This paper proposes go beyond concept stakeholders' goals, raise degree abstraction focusing on notions drivers, barriers that can environment which it deployed. Furthermore, we suggest narrow perspective single domain, as effect technology context-dependent. To put this vision into practice, interview 30 cross-disciplinary experts representative domain rural areas, analyse transcripts identify common themes. As result, provide positive or negative associated novel technical solutions areas. RE-relevant information could hardly be identified if were interviewed development specific system. contributes literature fresh requirements, domain-specific framework grounded experts' opinions. The conceptual resulting our analysis used reference baseline for elicitation endeavours areas need account concerns.

The digitalization of agricultural production and the use digital data are fundamentally transforming processes, products, services agro-food systems. Digitalization improves efficiency facilitates sophisticated farm management, thus increasing productivity, efficacy, profitability. At same time, it promises many opportunities for a more sustainable and, especially, ecological cleaner production. However, with comes potential number unintended side effects risks that may increase vulnerability have, far, received scant scientific societal attention. This article presents results two-year transdisciplinary process aimed to identify side-effects (short "unseens") perceived in German agriculture. Results base on triangulation knowledge integration from group involving twelve representatives science practice an ethnographic qualitative meta-analysis. findings have shown that, despite digitalization's numerous resource efficient production, broad range was by some key stakeholders involved. These were anticipated be caused negative uncertain agro-ecological social Data rights, restructuring value chain new market concentrations, power structures dependencies, changing requirements farmers (lacking "digital literacy"), information asymmetries cause potentially food security identified as causal factors. Based these results, we co-developed socially robust orientations (SoROs) coping resulting vulnerabilities. We argue SoROs provide perspectives how can turned into responsible action within RRI (responsible research innovation) framework. Finally, regard preventive anticipatory paradigm "cleaner production", our methodology shows way adaptively govern highly complex socio-technological transitions agriculture sense sustainability-oriented transformation.
