- Abstract: To meet the grand challenges of agricultural production including climate
change impacts on crop production, a tight integration of social science,
technology and agriculture experts including farmers are needed. There are
rapid advances in information and communication technology, precision
agriculture and data analytics, which are creating a fertile field for the
creation of smart connected farms (SCF) and networked farmers. A network and
coordinated farmer network provides unique advantages to farmers to enhance
farm production and profitability, while tackling adverse climate events. The
aim of this article is to provide a comprehensive overview of the state of the
art in SCF including the advances in engineering, computer sciences, data
sciences, social sciences and economics including data privacy, sharing and
technology adoption.
