Application of Agricultural Information Systems Development Kit for Multimodal Agricultural systems

Abstract

Multifunctional and diverse agriculture has the potential to effectively address conflicting demands and requirements by concurrently boosting biodiversity, production, and provision of environmental services. Digitalized technology can assist in the creation and control of agricultural models and systems that are resource-efficient and adaptable to their environments. In order to demonstrate the potential of digital technology in promoting decision-making processes that prioritize diverse and environmentally sustainable farming practices, we present an analysis of Agricultural Information Systems Development Kit (AISDK). The AISDK was developed through a comprehensive literature review to identify the limitations of current tools. Additionally, in collaboration with stakeholders, we established the criteria for a decision-support tool that is based on knowledge. The findings of the review emphasize the ongoing challenges associated with the integration of multiple spatial, temporal, and sustainability dimensions, as well as the promotion of effective collaboration and communications among farmers and key stakeholders in the agriculture sector.
