Seeding the Future by Exploring Innovation and Absorptive Capacity in Agriculture 4.0 and Agtechs

Ronak Pansara

Abstract


In the era of Agriculture 4.0, the agricultural landscape is undergoing a profound transformation with the integration of advanced technologies, commonly referred to as agtechs. This research paper delves into the realms of innovation and absorptive capacity within the agtech sector. We explore the dynamic interactions between technological innovation, knowledge acquisition, and the agricultural industry's adaptive capabilities. By examining case studies and empirical data, we shed light on how agtechs are reshaping traditional farming practices, enhancing productivity, and addressing sustainability challenges. Furthermore, our research highlights the critical role of absorptive capacity in facilitating the successful adoption of these innovations. Through this comprehensive analysis, we aim to provide insights into the future of Agriculture 4.0 and the factors that drive its success.
