INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES FOR FAMILY FARMS: FOREIGN EXPERIENCE
https://doi.org/10.48137/23116412_2022_3_35
Abstract
Agriculture makes up a significant part of the global economy, with 2.5 billion people worldwide dependent on the agricultural sector as the main source of livelihood. The most important place in the global agricultural production industry is occupied by family commodity farms. The socio-economic role of family farms in the development of the agricultural sector is a widely discussed issue. The social significance of farms is determined mainly by their potential to create jobs in rural areas and supply the population with high-quality food. The activity of family farms at present, as well as the economy as a whole, is inextricably linked with the introduction of digital technologies. The digital transformation of the agro–industrial complex is not a prospect of the distant future, but an already existing reality.
