Abstract
AbstractThe paper aims to scientifically substantiate the novelty and benefits of smart innovation in agriculture. Moreover, the paper indicates the mass availability of the transition to Agriculture 4.0 on the example of vertical farms based on hydroponics, deep learning, and artificial intelligence (AI). The methodological apparatus of this research is based on comparative analysis. This method is used to compare pre-digital technologies traditionally used in agriculture with smart technologies used in Agriculture 4.0. In turn, this comparison allows us to contrast the features and benefits of smart technologies and clearly demonstrate their novelty. The author compiled a vertical farm model based on hydroponics, deep learning, and AI. Vertical farms based on hydroponics, deep learning, and AI are proven to be an affordable smart farming innovation and a pathway to Agriculture 4.0, whose benefits include: (1) the possibility to establish and implement highly efficient agriculture in cities and northern territories, regardless of climate (autonomy); (2) defined and improved nutritional properties of food; (3) productivity increase; (4) year-round continuity of the agricultural cycle on the same territory.KeywordsVertical farmsHydroponicsDeep learning AISmart innovation in agricultureAgriculture 4.0JEL ClassificationQ12M11M14M21
