The introduction of the digital farming concept in the agricultural sector of Russia

Abstract

During the period of the digitalization of the economy, the rapid development of the Internet, information and communication technologies (ICT), sustainable communication channels, cloud technologies and digital platforms, open information systems and global industrial networks have appeared. These networks proceed, beyond the boundaries of an individual enterprise and interact with each other. The article discusses modern digital technologies currently implemented in the agricultural sector of Russia. The authors reviewed the national program “Digital Economy 2018-2024” to the digitalization of agriculture, conducted a bibliographic review of information technologies in agriculture and presented a description of digital technologies based on neural networks to the intellectual analysis of plant development. In conclusion, a new concept of digital farming in Russia is presented, based on wireless digital technologies. The authors note that to improve the energy efficiency of digital systems, people continue to work on the development of individual network elements' models and routing protocols of the wireless sensor network to optimize the sensor's energy consumption.
