Innovative technologies in the production of agricultural machinery to improve the efficiency of agribusinesses

Abstract

The purpose of the study was to analyse innovative technologies in the production of agricultural machinery and their impact on improving the efficiency of agricultural enterprises.The study applied various scientific methods to comprehensively analyse the impact of innovative technologies on the efficiency of enterprises in the field of agricultural engineering.The study found that the use of innovative technologies in agricultural engineering significantly increases the efficiency of agricultural enterprises. The analysis showed that the use of precision farming systems equipped with sensors and GPS technologies allows optimising the allocation of resources such as water and fertilisers, which leads to increased yields and lower costs. Automation of operations using autopilots on tractors and combines, as in the John Deere and Fendt models, has demonstrated a reduction in labour costs and a reduction in the influence of the human factor, which also contributes to increased productivity. Electrification and hybridisation of agricultural machinery, which has been actively implemented in countries such as Denmark and Germany, has proved economically beneficial, contributing to a reduction in carbon dioxide emissions and a reduction in operating costs. The introduction of artificial intelligence for monitoring and diagnostics of equipment has allowed minimising downtime and increasing the service life of equipment due to timely detection of malfunctions. In general, it has been established that the use of these technologies contributes to the sustainable development of agricultural enterprises, optimisation of production processes, and reduction of operating costs. The transition to more environmentally friendly production of agricultural machinery contributes to improving the environmental situation in regions with a high degree of agricultural mechanisation. The introduction of sustainable technologies in mechanical engineering has shown its effectiveness in reducing resource consumption, which makes agricultural enterprises more competitive in the global market.
