Possibilities of applying smart technologies in agriculture (after the Pandemic)

Abstract

In addition to the rapid increase in the number of people in the world, the food needs of
people are also changing with the same dynamics. This dynamic leads to a decrease in the
number of economically important plant and animal species every day. Development
directions of agriculture depend on social, economic and natural factors. Climate change and
the problems underlying it leads to a crisis situation in some areas of agriculture. The
influence of concepts such as food safety, healthy nutrition, and environmental protection on
people encourages agricultural entrepreneurs to produce environmentally friendly
products. The IV industrial revolution creates an opportunity to build agrarian complexes
that meet modern requirements using the opportunities created by technology in farms
located in cities and surrounding areas. Analysis and evaluation of spatial data is carried out
using information technologies. After calculating the economic efficiency of the obtained
results, a road map is prepared for conducting economic activities in the evaluated area.
With the help of geographic information systems, preliminary analyzes of any type of
economic subject can be calculated. The records of all components are digitized and the
potential cropping structure for the area is determined. In some countries, the economic
decline during the pandemic was directly related to agriculture. Territorial organization of
agriculture in Azerbaijan is developing in a different direction over the years. In the postpandemic period, this process has accelerated somewhat. Application tools were expanded
to eliminate deficiencies in sectors.
