Full Description
This book examines how Industry 4.0 technologies are reshaping agricultural systems across Asia, with in-depth case studies of Singapore, China, and Japan. As the region confronts challenges related to food security, labor shortages, climate change, and resource constraints, digital technologies have emerged as critical tools for transforming agricultural production and governance.The volume explores the application of artificial intelligence, Internet of Things (IoT), automation, data analytics, and smart farming systems across diverse socio-economic and institutional contexts. Singapore's high-tech, land-scarce model is analyzed alongside China's scale-driven digital agriculture initiatives and Japan's technology-assisted responses to an ageing farming population.By combining policy analysis, technological perspectives, and socio-economic insights, the book highlights both the opportunities and limitations of Industry 4.0 in agriculture. It emphasizes that technological adoption is not merely a technical process but is deeply shaped by governance structures, institutional capacity, and national development strategies.This book will be of interest to scholars, policymakers, and industry practitioners seeking a comparative understanding of digital transformation in agriculture within Asia and beyond.
