Abstract
The agricultural sector plays an essential role in providing foodstuffs for the population of every country. However, the lack of innovation in agricultural technology and the limited distribution channels for crop yields have caused farmers' welfare levels to be relatively low in various regions. Meanwhile, Smart Agriculture and 4.0 Technologies play a considerable role in increasing the agricultural sector's efficiency. Digitalization has had a significant influence on transforming traditional agricultural systems into data management-based approaches. The Desa Apps is an open access agricultural extension platform developed in Indonesia that facilitates farmers to interact with other farmers to share ideas, innovations, and solutions to face various farm and off-farm obstacles. This paper aims to describe the development platform and identify opportunities related to developing the Desa Apps platform. The results showed that Java and Sumatra islands have good potential for developing the Desa Apps platform. Besides, the registered members with the most significant reporting level are farmers, extension agents, and traders.
