International Experiences,Local Practices and Policy Implications of Digital Transformation in Agriculture
Through intelligent and efficient production,the digital transformation in agriculture can better a-dapt to market demand and changes in the resource environment and realize sustainable agricultural develop-ment.In the realization of the digital development of agriculture,the EU through the construction of"shared"information transfer system,"open"regional cluster construction,and"green"elements of reverse drive;the US has realized digital agriculture through the promotion of intensive and large-scale agricultural production,the introduction of market mechanisms,the guidance of social capital,and the construction of a digital technology promotion and application system;Japan has realized digital agriculture through the devel-opment of refined digital agriculture,the synergistic promotion of the government and farmers'associations,and the driving of digital technology innovation.The four development paths that are suitable for China's agricultural situation are"government-led+multi-principal integration""leading agricultural en ter prises-led+policy support""research institutions-led+industry-university-research integration",and"driven by capable people+demonstration-led".However,it also faces problems such as the lack of sustainability of govern-ment-led digital projects,the failure to fully tap the potential and functions of social organizations'participa-tion,the low degree of agricultural scale,and the lack of trust in the green consumer market.To this end,we should establish a linkage mechanism for obtaining data and information from various regions,develop a regulatory mechanism for green production that is strictly followed by the market,promote the development of agricultural organizations in the direction of scaling up and intensification,introduce a market mechanism to promote the independent and market-oriented operation of agricultural research institutions,and give full play to the role of social organizations,such as agricultural associations.
