This paper aims at analysing and presenting the findings regarding migration aspirations of agricultural High school students in northern rural Ecuador. Using a quantitative approach, it analyses 366 surveys from agricultural high schools’ students in three agricultural cantons located in different geographic regions: Coast, Highlands and Amazon. The migration drivers are low prices of agricultural produce, low wages and lack of technical support to agriculture. A big share does not intend to work in the agricultural sector in the Highlands and Coast; contrarily to the Amazon region. More than half of the respondents has aspirations to migrate to study in urban centres, and search for better economic and labour opportunities. Aspiration to migrate has a negative correlation with agriculture profitability. It is positive with parents’ land ownership, which is determined by the lack of interest to study agriculture at university that increases the scarcity of rural labour force and young successors to take up agriculture.

Full textAbstract:
Promoting green agricultural production is becoming increasingly important in order to address resource and environmental issues and meet consumers’ demand for safe agricultural products. Green agriculture mainly refers to the adoption of green, smart agriculture technologies in agricultural production. Farmers are the main body of agricultural production, so guiding farmers to adopt green, smart agriculture technologies is of great significance for safeguarding the ecological environment. However, due to the combined influence of internal and external factors, the current level of adoption of green, smart agriculture technologies by farmers is not high. Contract farming can have an impact on farmers’ production behavior through various channels, such as guiding and standardizing production, and may become an internal driving force for improving the adoption of green, smart agriculture technologies. How do farmers make contract farming selection decisions? How does the choice of contract farming affect farmers’ adoption of green, smart agriculture technologies? Further research on the above issues can provide useful references for promoting the development of green agriculture and ensuring the quality of agricultural products in China. Against this backdrop, this paper, using research data about rice farmers in the Jiangsu Province of China, adopted a gradual regression method for checking the mediating and moderating effects to discover the mechanism of how contract farming influences rice farmers’ choice of green, smart agriculture technologies. The research results showed that: (1) contract farming has an evidently positive influence on farmers’ choice of green, smart agriculture technologies; (2) the high ecological value standard plays a complete mediating role in the process of contract farming influencing farmers’ choice of green, smart agriculture technologies; and (3) the moderating effect of planting rice income exists and is significant. When the income from cultivation is high, the positive relationship between the high ecological value standard and farmers’ choice of green, smart agriculture technologies is strengthened. Income from rice cultivation does have a moderating effect. Therefore, the government can actively guide farmers to participate in contract farming by increasing its publicity and support of contract farming. The implementation of the high ecological value standard in contract farming should be refined. The government should complete the mechanism for selling quality agricultural products at good prices. Contract farming can make farmers and corporations involved have deep cooperation, increase the non-agricultural income of farmers, and further enhance the overall income of their households. Through these measures, the development of green agriculture can be achieved.

Advances in technology in communication currently have a significant change throughout all sectors. Agriculture especially in Indonesia has a big potential to apply this 4.0 technology that will drive a significant output and productivity in crops production. The world’s population is projected to rise from 7.4 billion currently to 8.1 billion in 2025, according to the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization. The UN food agency’s latest annual agricultural outlook, produced alongside the OECD, forecast that 80% of the increase in crop output needed to feed this population would come from yield improvements. The main idea of this paper is twofold: the first one is to Understand how agriculture 4.0 could take place and improve the productivity of a crops production with a descriptive approach. And the second one is to Understand what the gaps of Indonesia as 3rd are ranked rice producer in the world to deploy the agriculture 4.0

Full textAbstract:
Agriculture has historically had a significant negative impact on the environment, primarily due to practices aimed at increasing yields to meet the growing demands of the population. These practices have led to consequences such as deforestation, soil degradation, biodiversity loss, irrigation issues, and pollution. To tackle these challenges, the concept of sustainable agriculture has emerged as a new approach. Sustainable agriculture aims to meet the present food and resource needs of society while ensuring the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. It emphasizes the use of agricultural practices that minimize negative environmental impacts, promote resource efficiency, and ensure long-term sustainability. To effectively implement sustainable agriculture, it is crucial to adopt practices that align with its principles. Examples of such practices include organic farming, integrated pest management, crop rotation, agroforestry, conservation tillage, and water management techniques. By adopting these practices, farmers can reduce reliance on synthetic inputs, preserve soil health, conserve water resources, protect biodiversity, and mitigate the impact of agriculture on climate change. However, the adoption of sustainable agricultural practices is influenced by various factors that can vary across regions and contexts. These factors may include economic considerations, access to resources and knowledge, policy support, market demand for sustainable products, social norms, and farmer attitudes and beliefs. Understanding these factors is essential for promoting widespread adoption of sustainable agriculture. Research has been conducted to explore the drivers and barriers to the adoption of sustainable agricultural practices. By identifying these factors, policymakers, researchers, and agricultural stakeholders can develop targeted strategies to incentivize and support farmers in transitioning towards sustainable practices. Although progress has been made in understanding the factors influencing adoption, there are still gaps and challenges in the existing literature. Further research is needed to deepen our understanding of the complex interactions between different factors and their effects on adoption outcomes. This will contribute to the development of more effective policies, programs, and interventions to promote sustainable agriculture and address the environmental challenges associated with conventional farming practices.

Abstract: The revolution brought by Internet of Things (IoT) technology has affected every field of common man's life, making everything smart and intelligent. In the past, the ripeness of the soil and crop growth were determined by farmers based on their intuition and suspicions. They were unaware of factors such as humidity, water levels, and especially weather conditions, which negatively impacted farmers. The agricultural sector is being transformed by the Internet of Things (IoT), empowering farmers through a wide range of techniques. In the era of IoT, extensive research is being conducted to develop Smart IoT-based products that facilitate Smart Farming in terms of Crop Management, Pest Management, Agriculture Precision, Agriculture Fields Monitoring through Sensors, and even Drones. The production rate of crops in agriculture depends on various parameters such as temperature, humidity, and rainfall. Therefore, the project aims to make agriculture smart using IoT technologies and the utilization of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), also known as drones, and connected analytics, which have great potential to address and support some of the most pressing issues faced by agriculture in terms of accessing real-time quality data that can be acted upon. The basic purpose and use of drones for spraying plants could allow for the rapid application of plant protection agents on growing areas. Accordingly, this paper presents the applicable types, role, and significance of drone usage in modern agriculture. This paper provides an overview of various technologies used to reduce human efforts in various agricultural operations, such as detecting the presence of pests, spraying of UREA, spraying of fertilizers, crop mapping, and soil analysis, among others

Organic agriculture started much more recently in thousands of years ago, Agriculture almost equal share of the farming systems of crop production and characterizes the key issues of Ethiopian economy. The quality of organic resources and their fertilizer equivalence are the main criteria to be judged for effective utilization of the organic resources for soil fertility improvement and promotion of agricultural products both in quantity and quality.Organic agriculture is production system that sustains the health of soils, ecosystems and people. The evaluation of organic matter in soils depends on type and nature of organic source. Organic agriculture in the extent to which African farmers certified yields (more than 50% higher than local yield averages). The export main products produced are cotton, sesame and coffee, followed by cocoa, dried fruits, frozen fruit/pulp, fresh mainly tropical fruit and spices. Ethiopia is famous as the origin of coffee and is the largest producer in Africa. Forest coffee has the advantage that it originates from an organic and shaded production area - a quality increasingly important for coffee drinkers worldwide coffee cultivation systems, superior quality and organic in nature. Certified-organic farmers will generally require a higher price to compensate for the costs of inspection, certification and the major source of foreign exchange and thus account more than half of the value of total export. Total number of 12 forest coffee cooperatives in remote areas of southwestern Ethiopia were certified according to Fairtrade, organic (EU standard) and Utz Certified standards. The common understanding of agricultural production in all types of organic agriculture is managing the production capacity of an agro-ecosystem. Pesticides and fertilizers are damaging human health and polluting the surrounding environment and thus violating the sustainability of ecosystem.

Since the national farmers' day on May 12, 2017 in Kaya, Burkina Faso, the debate on agriculture has been to establish the agricultural entrepreneurship through the concept of agriculture as a family business (ACEF). And it is from this perspective that this study was conducted to analyse the financing possibilities open to family farming and to deduce the constraints of the transition from family farming to enterprise farming. To do this, we used the exegetical method to characterize the existing agricultural formations, to identify the means of financing and the constraints of the agricultural transition. The agricultural sector is strongly dominated by family farming with low physical and financial capital. The means of financing are self-financing and external financing. However, the transition will not be without problems because there are technical and political constraints to overcome.

Abstract: The rate of population growth in the world is alarming. It is quite difficult to meet the needs of such a large population. Good nutrition is the most fundamental requirement for each human being. The old and conventional farming techniques, however, are proving insufficient for supplying food in large amounts due to the growing population. Fortunately, by utilizing cutting-edge agricultural techniques and smart electronics technology, we can raise efficiency and productivity to higher levels. Additionally, this will guarantee us access to food. An IOT-based smart agriculture monitoring system project using Arduino is presented to improve the effectiveness and productivity of agricultural crops. One of the most crucial aspects of our society is agriculture. Every day, farmers generate food. Water is a key aspect of successful agriculture. Technology has played a crucial role in developing agriculture. The world's largest water user is the agriculture industry. Since water is used so extensively in agriculture, which makes up the majority of the Indian economy, it is disappearing day by day. One answer to this issue is irrigation, as plants are fed with water by drip irrigation. Water is well conserved by irrigation. The agricultural land must be consistently watered while being continuously monitored. In many parts of the world, manual irrigation is still used to deliver water for agriculture.

Agricultural Sciences is an Applied Science but has its touch with social science due to its nature. It uses various kinds of tools, techniques, procedure, methods, principles of science; that is responsible for the cultivation of plants, crops, vegetables, livestock as well as animals. Agriculture is dedicated to the sedentary human civilization and by this people can meet their food demand. As far as the history of agriculture it is noted that agriculture as a concept emerged thousands of years before about 105,000 years ago and regarding the nascent farmers, it was about 11,500 years ago. Initially, animals were not considered within this but gradually various animals such as pigs, sheep and cattle became part of agricultural sciences since 10, 000 years ago. Farming normally considered as the cultivation in a small area whereas Agriculture is treated for a large area with huge place and expenditure. In today’s context, about 11 regions of the world are cultivating commercially. Agriculture as an interdisciplinary field is concerned with various disciplines and subjects; and this trend is growing rapidly. There are diverse areas and emerging nomenclatures emerged in Agriculture viz. Chemical Agriculture, Green revolution & Agriculture, Genetic engineering-based Agriculture, Organic Agriculture /Farming, Corporate Agriculture /Farming, Vertical Farming /Agriculture, etc. This paper is theoretical and empirical in nature. It analyzed various aspects of agriculture with special reference to the aspects, features, role, and emergence of three emerging types of agriculture viz. Organic Agriculture.

Smart agriculture is one of the Internet of Things' most important uses. Water, fertilizer, and crop yield waste are all reduced via smart agriculture. The manual detection of specifications like temperature, moisture, and humidity in the existing agricultural system drives up labor costs, and continuous monitoring is not possible. The irrigation procedure is carried out automatically in this study utilizing various sensors, which reduces manual work. It is suggested to utilize a sensor-based monitoring system for crop fields. It would entail gathering information on the soil moisture, humidity, and temperature. Automation of irrigation is possible by keeping an eye on all these variables. Unquestionably, smart farming is a key facilitator in providing more food with less resources for a growing global population. While this is essential to feeding the world's expanding population responsibly, smart farming also offers producers and communities throughout the world additional advantages. Farmers may raise yields and improve environmental management by using these strategies. By monitoring the field, IoT-based smart agriculture enhances the overall farming system. The Internet of Things in agriculture helps farmers save time and lessen the usage of resources like water thanks to sensors and connections. electricity, internet-connected temperature monitoring.

Full textAbstract:
Organic agriculture is often perceived as more sustainable than conventional farming. We review the literature on this topic from a global perspective. In terms of environmental and climate change effects, organic farming is less polluting than conventional farming when measured per unit of land but not when measured per unit of output. Organic farming, which currently accounts for only 1% of global agricultural land, is lower yielding on average. Due to higher knowledge requirements, observed yield gaps might further increase if a larger number of farmers would switch to organic practices. Widespread upscaling of organic agriculture would cause additional loss of natural habitats and also entail output price increases, making food less affordable for poor consumers in developing countries. Organic farming is not the paradigm for sustainable agriculture and food security, but smart combinations of organic and conventional methods could contribute toward sustainable productivity increases in global agriculture.

Climate change is emerging as a major threat to farming, food security and the livelihoods of millions of people across the world. Agriculture is strongly affected by climate change due to increasing temperatures, water shortage, heavy rainfall and variations in the frequency and intensity of excessive climatic events such as floods and droughts. Farmers need to adapt to climate change by developing advanced and sophisticated farming systems instead of simply farming at lower intensity and occupying more land. Integrated agricultural systems constitute a promising solution, as they can lower reliance on external inputs, enhance nutrient cycling and increase natural resource use efficiency. In this context, the concept of Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA) emerged as a promising solution to secure the resources for the growing world population under climate change conditions. This work proposes a CSA architecture for fostering and supporting integrated agricultural systems, such as Mixed Farming Systems (MFS), by facilitating the design, the deployment and the management of crop–livestock-=forestry combinations towards sustainable, efficient and climate resilient agricultural systems. Propelled by cutting-edge technology solutions in data collection and processing, along with fully autonomous monitoring systems, e.g., smart sensors and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), the proposed architecture called MiFarm-CSA, aims to foster core interactions among animals, forests and crops, while mitigating the high complexity of these interactions, through a novel conceptual framework.

Full textAbstract:
Agriculture is critical to human life. Agriculture provides a means of subsistence for a sizable portion of the world’s population. Additionally, it provides a large number of work opportunities for inhabitants. Many farmers prefer traditional farming approaches, which result in low yields. Agriculture and related industries are vital to the economy’s long-term growth and development. The primary issues in agricultural production include decision-making, crop selection, and supporting systems for crop yield enhancement. Agriculture forecasting is influenced by natural variables such as temperature, soil fertility, water volume, water quality, season, and crop prices. Growing advancements in agricultural automation have resulted in a flood of tools and apps for rapid knowledge acquisition. Mobile devices are rapidly being used by everyone, including farmers. This paper presents a framework for smart crop tracking and monitoring. Sensors, Internet of Things cameras, mobile applications, and big data analytics are all covered. The hardware consists of an Arduino Uno, a variety of sensors, and a Wi-Fi module. This strategy would result in the most effective use of energy and the smallest amount of agricultural waste possible.

This article seeks to cultivate a better understanding of the influence of agriculture and farming on literary modernism. It begins with a brief analysis of agriculture in the work of Vita Sackville-West and Virginia Woolf, before exploring the significance of farming in relation to Ford Madox Ford, John Middleton Murry and T. S. Eliot. Following on from this initial consideration of literary modernism and agriculture, it then proceeds to investigate Ezra Pound's position within environmental modernism, through exploring the influence of the organic husbandry movement on his social and political criticism. In particular, it examines Pound's active engagement with notable organic magazines of the period including the New English Weekly (to which Pound contributed over 200 pieces between 1932–1940 and authored its ‘American Notes’ in 1935) and the Townsman. Through an examination of Pound's affiliation with the organic movement, it will illustrate that their mutual agricultural concerns were invariably connected to the wider financial considerations of economic and monetary reform, including the social credit theories of Major C. H. Douglas.

Full textAbstract:
Carbon farming is a capable strategy for more sustainable production of food and other related products. It seeks to produce a diverse array of natural farming methods and marketable products simultaneously. According to the food and agriculture organization (FAO), agriculture, forestry, and other land-use practices account for 24% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and total global livestock emissions of 7.1 gigatons of CO2-equivalent per year, representing 14.5% of total anthropogenic GHG emissions. For example, an agroforestry system that deliberately integrates trees and crops with livestock in agricultural production could potentially increase carbon sequestration and decrease GHG emissions from terrestrial ecosystems, thus helping to mitigate global climatic change. Also, agroforestry is capable of generating huge amounts of bio-mass and is believed to be particularly suitable for replenishing soil organic carbon (SOC). SOC is a crucial indicator for soil fertility since the change in SOC can explain whether the land use pattern degrades or improves soil fertility. Moreover, SOC found in soil in the form of soil organic matter (SOM) helps to improve soil health either directly or indirectly. Thus, efforts should be made to convince farmers to increase their resource-use efficiency and soil conserving ability to get maximum benefits from agriculture. Therefore, this review aimed at clarification about carbon farming, modifications in carbon cycle and carbon sequestration during agricultural development, and benefits of agroforestry.

Abstract: Agriculture is becoming an important growing sector throughout the world due to increasing population. Major challenge in agriculture sector is to improve farm productivity and quality of farming without continuous manual monitoring to meet the rapidly growing demand for food. Apart from increasing population, the climate change is also a big concern in agricultural sector. The purpose of this research work is to purpose a smart farming method based on internet of things (IOT) to deal with the adverse situations. The smart farming can be adopted which offer high precision crop control, collection of useful data and automated farming technique. This works presents a smart agriculture system which monitors soil humidity and temperature. After processing the sensed data, it takes necessary action based on these values without human intervention. In IOT-based smart agriculture, a system is built for monitoring the crop field with the help of sensors (light, humidity, temperature, soil moisture, etc) and automating the irrigation system. IOT (internet of things) in an agricultural context refers to the use of sensors, cameras, and temperature and moisture of the soil measured and these sensed values are stored in things speak cloud for future data analysis.

The major issue is the improvement and development of agriculture as a result of increasing population, changing lifestyles, commercialization of agricultural products as well as seasonal variability, changes in production trend and agricultural inequality. Regardless of the extent of human development, but its supply will be either from the ground or its processing. Changes in the agricultural system can also be seen as a result of all kinds of changes in the context of agriculture. Also, the world's population is increasing rapidly and in the context of India, it is a fact that it is the second most populous country in the world, by 2030 it will overtake China to become the world's most populous country. Also, the population of India increases by 2 crore people every year, for which the demand for bread, cloth, house demand also increases.

Full textAbstract:
Indian agriculture has changed considerably in the past several decades. Since post green revolution era, Indian farming basically shifted from the conventional farming system to towards the mechanized farming system and relies heavily on agricultural inputs such as chemical fertilizers, pesticides, heavy farm machineries and irrigation, which are dependent on fossil fuels. Large scale use of these inputs also contributed in emission of greenhouse gases which are mainly responsible for global warming and consequently climate change. Agriculture plays a unique role in the climate change mitigation because of its potential to lower greenhouse gases emissions through carbon sequestration. Organic agriculture is being considered as one of the appropriate farming systems that could serve the twin objectives of climate change mitigation and adaptation. Compared to conventional agriculture, organic agriculture is considered to be more energy efficient and effective both in reducing green house gases emission mainly due to the less use of chemical fertilizers and fossil fuel and enhancing the soil organic carbon. Promotion and adaptation of organic farming in developing country like India can serve as mitigation strategy of climate change.

According to the UN forecasts, by 2020 the world population will be over 9 billion people, to feed this huge amount of people the food production should grow by 70%. It means that the number of farmers, who are the main suppliers in food production, should be increased. How to enlarge the number of rural farmers? By getting young people interested in farming and agriculture. But nowadays young people are prone to move to big cities. Why young people are not involved in agriculture, what initiatives are being taken to support youth in agriculture and what recommendations can be given, so that young people stay in it? Using the potential and energy of youth in agriculture, comprehensive and integrated policies, programs for markets and trade should be available with special attention to promotions and conditions for young people, who are going to be farmers. In this paper we propose mAgriculture tools such as mobile phones and its applications from throughout the world as an instrument to draw attention of young people to agriculture, showing useful and best examples how farmers could increase their profit and yield through them. These applications help to display information about current prices of agricultural products, historical charts and future prices, comparing the prices of products at different intervals, helps to find significant trends and correlations, also farmers receive information on contracts and the latest news from the agricultural area etc.

European agriculture operates in challenging times as it faces uncertainties arising from economic, political, environmental and other pressures. In the arable sector, there are serious problems associated with overproduction and declining farm incomes as well as concerns about species decline and the pollution of ground and surface waters by agrochemicals. Such issues are forcing a fundamental re-orientation in agriculture. An Integrated Farming System (IFS) is identified as a most promising approach. It integrates natural regulatory components into farming activities with the aim of replacing purchased off-farm inputs, whilst maintaining farm income. Farm-scale trials across Europe indicate positive benefits of IFS. Yield potential does not deteriorate, agrochemical inputs are reduced and several agroecosystem components are enhanced without losses in financial returns. This paper discusses developments in IFS, together with possible technology transfer systems, in the context of the new, environmentally-orientated CEC-agropolicy to achieve sustainable agriculture in Europe.

Organic farming is usually regarded to be more environmentally friendly than conventional farming. On this subject, we perform a global literature review. Organic farming employs integrated production practises that reduce the environmental impact of inorganic fertilisers, herbicides, and genetically modified organisms. In terms of environmental and climate change effects, organic farming is less polluting than conventional farming when measured per unit of land. Organic cuisine is gaining popularity around the world. The main driver of increased demand is consumer concern about the detrimental impacts of conventional agriculture on the environment and human health. All across the world, various organic agricultural practises are practised. They are united by common aims of economic, environmental, and social sustainability. Many countries currently have specific legislative underpinnings for organic farming, as well as production and processing certification programmes. The expansion of organic agriculture practises and markets demonstrates how this is a viable alternative to intensification. More political will and scientific money could help realise more of this potential. In addition to developing organic agriculture, this should inform and improve the sustainability of other forms of agriculture.

Abstract— Smart agriculture is a new concept, Because IoT sensors can provide information about agriculture fields and then act on it based on user input. This paper proposes a smart agriculture system which include of drone seeding, fertilisers spraying, soil sampling, farm condition monitoring includes temperature, level of water, moisture monitoring and even any movement happens in the field which may ruin the agricultural field ,through the application of IoT drones and sensors for farms and also crop rotation farms. Drone will collect farm data such as pH value, soil humidity from a ground-based sensor that will be pre-plugged in the farm by the farmer. Because of its capacity to connect over a long distance, Zigbee is used to connect the ground sensor and the drone. The acquired data will subsequently be transmitted through LoRa to a gateway, where it will be stored for data storage and analysis in the cloud. We believe that the proposed application will make farming operations more automated and increase crop output rates.

India is a large country with all types of climates and different kinds of soil requiring different types of farming. Most of the agricultural land in India is dependent on rainfall for irrigation. India has about 15 Agro-climatic zones with different types of farming methods and crops. As most of the population is dependent on agriculture and two-third of the country depend on monsoon rains to aid in agriculture, any change in frequency of the rains will affect these areas critically. Assessment of the effects of global climate changes on agriculture might help to properly anticipate and adapt farming to maximize agricultural production. At the same time agriculture has been shown significant effects on climate change, primarily through the production and release of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide. The impact of climate change on agriculture could result in problems like food security and may threaten the livelihood on which much of the population depends.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of the article is to analyse the significance of farming and agriculture in the lives of young rural university graduates in Poland. Their educational and professional choices are discussed. How many of them graduated from agricultural higher education institutions and agricultural disciplines? Do such decisions translate into taking up farming after having completed the studies? What are the reasons that young people with higher education living in rural areas may be or may not be interested in farming? Another objective is to identify the main factors potentially “pulling” them towards agriculture and those “pushing” them out of this sector. The article is based on 92 in-depth interviews with university graduates aged 25–34 and 27 in-depth interviews with competent local informants conducted in ten purposely selected rural municipalities across Poland. The results show that farming and agriculture are more present in young university graduates than their educational and professional choices suggest. However, the interviews reflect the dominance of the modernisation paradigm shaping the perceptions of farmers and agriculture in Poland.

<abstract> <p>Due to the rapid development of the economy, science, and technology, we have noticed a trend where less and less attention is being paid to the modernization and development of labor and reading concerning agricultural teaching methods. Using the entropy weight method and the analytic hierarchy process, this paper empirically evaluates the practical aspects of interdisciplinary farming at agricultural colleges. In addition, it analyzes problems with current practical teaching methods from the perspectives of curriculum materials, practical education, educational platforms, and teachers. We also put forward corresponding ideas and suggestions for practical teaching methods related to interdisciplinary farming. The results show the following: ⅰ) A student's sense of responsibility to develop agriculture should be cultivated by integrating the cultural elements of agriculture with science curricula. ⅱ) Faculties with knowledge of interdisciplinary practices should be set up to improve students' abilities regarding practical activities. ⅲ) A practical teaching platform should be established to provide conditions for interdisciplinary integration. ⅳ) The previous conclusion requires schools to cultivate high-level teachers to maximize their leading role; only in this way can the process of agricultural education be comprehensively promoted. In this paper, by studying practical farming teaching methods at agricultural colleges and universities, we found that farming culture can be enhanced by educational culture. The cultivation of agricultural talents in the new era can be aided by helping students understand and appreciate agriculture, and by disseminating farming culture, agricultural talent can be cultivated among these students. Furthermore, this study focuses on cultivating excellent talent in terms of technical agriculture and rural management, thus combining theory and practice, which will promote the spirit of labor among students, as well as professional quality. This will ensure the constant innovation of agricultural and nonagricultural professional services for agriculture, rural areas, and farmers.</p> </abstract>

Sustainability is a topic that is at the center of current discussions in the political, economic, social, and environmental fields. For its analysis, an integral and multidisciplinary vision is needed. This work aims to assess the sustainability of agricultural systems in Paraguay through a comparison applying SAFA (Sustainability Assessment of Food and Agriculture Systems) indicators. The research focuses on 15 case studies on the territory of the Eastern Region of Paraguay divided into five classes of agricultural systems: agribusiness, conventional peasant family farming, agroecological peasant family farming, neo-rural farming, and indigenous agriculture. Data were collected through interviews with producers and key informants, direct observation, and scientific literature research in order to assess, through the SAFA Tool Software, the level of sustainability of each agricultural system as a whole and for each sustainability dimension (political, environmental, economic, and social dimension) in a comparative way. It has emerged that producers belonging to conventional peasant family farming, agroecological peasant family farming, neo-rural farming, and indigenous agriculture have achieved levels of sustainability that are similar to each other and very good in all four dimensions of sustainability. Meanwhile, agribusiness achieved moderate scores in the dimensions of governance and environmental integrity, and was good in the economic and social dimension.

Agriculture and farming are the most important and basic industries that are very important to humanity and generate a considerable portion of any nation's GDP. For good agricultural and farming management, technological advancements and support are required. Smart agriculture (or) farming is a set of approaches that uses a variety of current information and communication technology to improve the production and quality of agricultural products with minimum human involvement and at a lower cost. Smart farming is mostly based on IoT technology, since there is a need to continually monitor numerous aspects in the agricultural field, such as water level, light, soil characteristics, plant development, and so on. Machine learning algorithms are used in smart farming to increase production and reduce the risk of crop damage. Data analytics has been shown through extensive study to improve the accuracy and predictability of smart agricultural systems. Data analytics is utilised in agricultural fields to make decisions and recommend acceptable crops for production. This study provides a comprehensive overview of the different methods and structures utilised in smart farming. It also provides a thorough analysis of different designs and recommends appropriate answers to today's smart farming problems.
