dc.description.abstractIt provides a comprehensive overview of how these innovations are being employed to enhance efficiency and sustainability in agricultural practices, covering topics such as regenerative agriculture, precision agriculture, and agricultural technologies (AgTech). The report concludes with an analysis of the challenges and opportunities faced by farmers during the process of technology adoption. The document is structured around the different stages of the agricultural cycle: soil preparation, sowing operations, crop protection and management, smart harvesting, and digital harvest management. For each stage, relevant technological solutions are described, such as soil and climate sensors, planting robots, pest management and irrigation systems, as well as digital management platforms. The analysis follows a deductive approach, tailored to the Mexican context, while considering local crop types and farming formats. The most recent available data have been considered, and where Mexico-specific information was unavailable, regional information or insights from similar crops in comparable areas have been included. The report also highlights technologies excluded due to high risks or implementation costs, offering detailed justifications for these exclusions.
