Abstract

Domestication and cultivation of useful plants are correlated with the evolution and development of human civilization. The current evolution of agricultural technologies has allowed the development of new concepts of intelligent agriculture, based on ITC. In order to optimize crop production, pest control, soil and plant growth monitoring and better information collection for farmers, in the context of the world's growing population, smart agriculture will need to make more use of information technology. The future of agriculture in the coming years will be the result of the connection between satellites and intelligent technical means, both with monitoring and control of agricultural activity. The article presents the trends of smart agriculture and aspects related to the development of Romanian agriculture. The obtained results allow the development of more extensive analyzes, the presented study being part of the documentation related to the doctoral research.
