Smart Agriculture Knowledge Platforms: Digital Libraries for Sustainable Research and Innovation

Abstract

In this regard, this paper aims to establish the potential of digital libraries to support smart agriculture by improving knowledge availability and sharing in sustainable agriculture research and development. Additionally, with environmental problems like Climate change, food insecurity, and sustainable agriculture, we realize that digital libraries are essential support for improving the dissemination of information in agriculture. Concerning the modern advances in digital library systems, this paper overviews present-day literature and practices of these applications' integration with agriculturally-themed research portals and Working Papers to reveal the prospects and challenges of constructing knowledge support systems for sustainable agricultural development. The study identifies significant success stories, instruments, and practices for improved resource utilization, information exchange, and cooperation in research for agriculture.
