Research Trends, Theories and Concepts on the Utilization of Digital Platforms in Agriculture: A Scoping Review

Abstract

Globally, the agriculture sector is faced with multiple challenges especially in developing countries where smallholder farmers face barriers such as lack of access to financial services, information, formal and/or economic identity. The utilization of digital platforms in agriculture can offer solutions such as information services, financial inclusion and access to credit, digital identities, track and traceability systems, farm management systems and access to markets. This paper explores the research trends, theories and concepts associated with the utilization of digital platforms in agriculture. Using a scoping review and a directed content analysis approach, 52 papers were studied. It was found that studies have so far focused mainly on the policy, economics, knowledge and innovation systems, impact and adoption of digital agriculture platforms. The findings of this scoping review will aid in the understanding of the state of research on the utilization of digital platforms in agriculture and contribute to future research by helping to identify gaps in the relevant literature.
