An analytical study of the degree of barriers to digitalisation and modernisation of agriculture

Xiao Yang

Abstract


Digitalisation and agricultural modernisation have attracted widespread attention in contemporary agriculture as key
factors in promoting agricultural development and effi ciency. However, there are still some barriers to the implementation of digitalisation
technologies and the promotion of agricultural modernisation. This study aims to provide an in-depth analysis of the barriers to digitalisation
and agricultural modernisation in order to improve our understanding of these issues. Through literature review and field research, we
identify factors that aff ect the application of digitalisation in agriculture, including weak technological infrastructure, digital divide, and
limited quality of farmers. At the same time, we also explored the problems that may be faced in the process of agricultural modernisation,
such as irrational land use and imperfect market systems. On the basis of analysing these obstacles, we propose a series of potential solutions,
such as strengthening technological infrastructure, promoting rural digital education, and improving market regulation. By overcoming these
barriers, we expect to better promote digitalisation and modernisation of agriculture, contributing to sustainable agricultural development
and higher incomes for farmers.
