Rapidly emerging technologies that
capture, manage, communicate, and use information in digital
form are dramatically transforming the way that farming and
agribusiness are done across the globe—especially for large
commercial farms. Nowhere is this more true than in the
Russian Federation, where many large agri-holding companies
operate at the cutting edge of the application of digital
technologies. These large industrial farms, with sizable
land and livestock holdings, possess the financial resources
and the management know-how to own and leverage the most
advanced technology. Some have sophisticated information
technology staff to develop and manage digital approaches to
many aspects of farm operations. However, many of Russia’s
farms—especially small and medium farms—lack the
connectivity and skillsets needed to take advantage of such
technologies. Many of these small farms also lack the
equipment and the know-how to take advantage of the
transformational digital opportunities from which they might
profit. Yet the ever-expanding connectivity and availability
of information and communication technology and digital
tools could make it possible for transformational
developments to happen on small, traditional, remote, and
disadvantaged farms too. |
