Empowering women agripreneurs through precision agriculture technology adoption: An integrative review of literature
Abstract
The use of precision agricultural technology has been shown to increase yields while decreasing the farmer’s exposure to risk. Despite women’s important involvement in agriculture in many nations, there remains a technological gap between the genders. Particular focus on agriculture’s essential role in alleviating poverty and hunger. The literature gap in precision agriculture technology adoption by women agripreneurs needs to be addressed. This study presents an integrative review of the literature aimed at identifying the factors that influence precision agriculture technology adoption among women and proposes recommendations for mitigating the gap. The review highlights precision agriculture technology adoption theories and various factors. Also, it discovered several social and policy implications, as well as training programs, to close the gap. The recommendations given to policymakers are to connect younger, technically-savvy women with older, less technically literate women farmers to address the digital literacy divide. Future research can test the empirical relationship between precision agriculture technology adoption variables on women agripreneurs specifically on various technologies used in agriculture and find the viability. By addressing the gap women agripreneurs will be equipped to adopt precision agriculture technology and digital agriculture, which will ultimately benefit the rural farming community and achieve sustainability.
