최근 농촌 고령화와 노동력 부족, 경지면적의 감소, 이상기후에 따른 환경 변화, 시장개방에 따른 무한경쟁 상태에 놓인 국내 농업의 어려운 상황 속에서 스마트팜은 미래 농업의 새로운 트렌드로 주목받고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 스마트팜의 기술수용의도에 미치는 영향요인들을 살펴보고 이를 바탕으로 스마트팜 도입 확산을 위한 제언을 하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 스마트팜 수용의도에 가장 영향을 미치는 요인으로 통합기술수용이론(UTAUT)을 근거로 스마트팜의 기술적 특성과 노력기대를 제시하였다. 실제 농업에 종사하고 있는 농업인들을 대상으로 수집한 설문결과를 자료분석에 사용하였으며, 독립변수로는 스마트팜의 기술적 특성으로 가용성, 신뢰성, 경제성을 선정하여 종속변수인 스마트팜 수용의도에 미치는 영향요인을 분석하였고, 노력기대의 매개효과를 분석하였다. 연구결과, 스마트팜의 기술적 특성 중 가용성과 경제성은 스마트팜 수용의도에 정(+)의 영향을 미치며, 신뢰성은 스마트팜 수용의도에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 스마트팜의 기술적 특성인 가용성, 신뢰성, 경제성은 스마트팜 노력기대에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 함께 스마트팜에 대한 노력기대는 스마트팜의 기술적 특성과 독립적으로 스마트팜 수용의도에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 매개효과와 관련해서는, 스마트팜에 대한 노력기대는 스마트팜의 기술적 특성인 가용성, 신뢰성, 경제성과 스마트팜 수용의도간의 관계를 매개하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 분석결과는 농업인들의 스마트팜 도입을 촉진시키기 위해서는 스마트팜 기술의 안정적 기능 수행을 체감할 수 있는 전문적인 현장실습교육 프로그램, 기기 및 통신의 표준화, 스마트팜 도입에 따른 투자대비 수익성 변화의 구체적 제시, 양질의 환경 생육 데이터 수집 및 활용 체계 구축이 필요함을 시사한다.

This study analyzed the effects of ICT technical characteristics of agricultural industry on smart farm entrepreneurial intention by using smart farm effort expectation and smart farm acceptance intention as mediators for smart farm pre-founders. Sub-variables of the technical characteristics of agricultural industry ICT were classified into availability, economics, data convergence and scalability. 349 questionnaires collected from pre-founders living in the country were used for empirical analysis. SPSS v22.0 and Process macro v3.4 were used to analyze the data based on serial multiple mediation model. First, economics and scalability had a positive (+) effect on start-up intention. Second, availability, economics and scalability had a significant effect on effort expectation. Third, effort expectation had a significant positive effect on acceptance intention. Fourth, acceptance intention had a significant positive effect on start-up intention. Fifth, the indirect effects of economics on start-up intention were all significant through effort expectation, through acceptance intention and through both effort expectation and acceptance intention. Sixth, the indirect effect of data convergence on start-up intention was significant through acceptance intention. Seventh, the indirect effect of scalability on start-up intention was significant through effort expectation and through both effort expectation and acceptance intention. As a follow-up study, it is necessary to study for the mediating variables other than mediators introduced in the study or the moderated mediation analysis through the conditional process model in which the moderating variable is introduced.

This study is to look at the influential factors associated with the acceptance intention of smart farm and suggest a proposal for spreading adoption of smart farms. The research questionnaire distributed to the farmers were used for the research analysis by statistical program SPSS v22.0 and Process macro v3.0. The technical characteristics of smart farm, which are availability, reliability and economic efficiency were selected as independent variables to analyze the influential factors on acceptance intention of smart farm and the mediating effect of effort expectation was observed. As a result, availability and economic efficiency have a positive(+) influence on acceptance intention and reliability have no influence on acceptance intention. And availability, reliability and economic efficiency have a positive(+) influence on effort expectation. Effort expectation mediates the relationship between the technical characteristics of smart farm and acceptance intention. The results of the study are expected to be utilized at the seeking direction of policy for potential adopters of smart farm, the training and consulting in actual field of smart farm.

As ICT convergence technology has spread and applied to various industrial fields and society in general, interest in rural entrepreneurship using smart farm as a means for solving many pending problems in agriculture is increasing. In this context, this study is to look at the influential factors in terms of perceived usefulness associated with the rural entrepreneurial intention using smart farm and suggest a proposal for spreading smart farms. The subjects were 296 general adults over 20 years old who were selected by simple random sampling method. The research method was exploratory factor analysis and multiple regression analysis using IBM SPSS 22.0. The perceived usefulness of smart farm, which are availability, reliability and economic efficiency were selected as independent variables to analyze the influential factors on rural entrepreneurial intention using smart farm and the moderating effect of personal innovation was observed. As a result, reliability and economic efficiency have a positive(+) influence on rural entrepreneurial intention using smart farm. And personal innovation moderates the relationship between the availability, reliability of smart farm and rural entrepreneurial intention using smart farm. The results of this study have significance in that we devised and empirically revealed factors affecting rural entrepreneurship intentions from the perspective of perceived usefulness of smart farms, away from studies of general entrepreneurship intention factors such as internal personal characteristics and external environmental factors. The implications of the study are expected to be utilized at the seeking direction of policy for potential entrepreneur using smart farm, the training and consulting in actual field of smart farm.
