Farming activities are transforming from traditional skill-based agriculture into knowledge-based and technology-driven digital agriculture. The use of intelligent information and communication technology introduces the idea of smart farming that enables farmers to collect weather data, monitor crop growth remotely and detect crop diseases easily. The introduction of Plantix, a pest and disease management tool in the form of a mobile application has allowed farmers to identify pests and diseases of the crop using their mobile devices. Hence, this study collected the reviews of Plantix to explore the response of the users on the Google Play Store towards the application through Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) topic modeling. Results indicate four latent topics in the reviews: two positive evaluations (compliments, appreciation) and two suggestions (plant options, recommendations). We found the users suggested the application to additional plant options and additional features that might help the farmers with their difficulties. In addition, the application is expected to benefit the farmer more by having an early alert of diseases to farmers and providing various substitutes and a list of components for the remedial measures.

This focuses on the Cultivation Plan Service at the preliminary production phase is critical in that it supports agricultural producers' decision by providing related information such as predicted crop production or expected profits for consulting or other agricultural information when they plan to cultivate. This paper describes the reference architecture of the farming sector will benefit immensely from the implementation of farming data in farming contents repository which will serve as the knowledge base for the Cultivation Plan Service at the pre-production stage based on Big data analysis.

The purpose of this study is to analyze affecting factors on the income, farming scale, and farming implementation of graduates of the Korea National College of Agriculture and Fisheries using panel model. For this, we used a generalized estimation equation among the panel analysis methods. The factors that have a positive (+) effect on income were men, married people, and successive farmers. In the case of parents' cooperative farming, dairy farming or poultry farming, matching the major at the time of graduation with the main items, the income was also high. Factors that have a positive (+) effect on farming scale were unmarried people, parents' cooperative farming, aquaculture cultivation, and poultry farming. The factors that implemented the mandatory farming implementation well were men, married people, parents' cooperative farming, aquaculture cultivation, and pig farming. Through the results of this study, it will be possible to help manage and support graduates and enrolled students.

This study was conducted to investigate policy priority with respect to development of a smart farming system. Professors, researchers and policy makers in related fields were surveyed to develop a long-term plan and improved direction for the smart farming system, and the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) was used for analysis. Overall, 61 experts in the frontiers of the field were surveyed and 42 questionnaires were analyzed. The results showed that the most important factors influencing development plans are increasing the income of farmers, minimizing management costs and standardizing and localizing smart farming systems. However, some plans differ with respect to economic and technology factors; therefore, those things should be analyzed in more detail by experts.

Agrophotovoltaic (APV) system is an integrated system producing crops as well as solar energy. Because crop production underneath Photovoltaic (PV) modules requires delicate management of crops, smart farming equipment such as real-time remote monitoring sensors (e.g., soil moisture sensors) and micro-climate monitoring sensors (e.g., thermometers and irradiance sensors) is installed in the APV system. This study aims at introducing a decision support system (DSS) for smart farming in an APV system. The proposed DSS is devised to provide a mobile application service, satellite image processing, real-time data monitoring, and performance estimation. Particularly, the real-time monitoring data is used as an input of the DSS system for performance estimation of an APV system in terms of production yields of crops and monetary benefit so that a data-driven function is implemented in the proposed system. The proposed DSS is validated with field data collected from an actual APV system at the Jeollanamdo Agricultural Research and Extension Services in South Korea. As a result, farmers and engineers enable to efficiently produce solar energy without causing harmful impact on regular crop production underneath PV modules. In addition, the proposed system will contribute to enhancement of the smart farming technology in the field of agriculture.

Under the great influence of ICT technology, China is forging ahead steadily and rapidly in the area of smart farming. In the last decade, Chinese government has carried out strategic plans to promote its economic development in agriculture, such as the plan of Made In China 2025 and One Belt One Road initiative. This thesis's objective is to analyze how such plans and initiative can provide 'windows of opportunity' to the development of smart farming industry in China. China led the development of smart agriculture by making a T-shaped rise which is composed with 'One Belt One Road Initiative and Made in China 2025 Plan. This thesis is divided into three types as path-following catch-up, path-skipping catch-up, path-creating catch-upAs this thesis also manages to provide some implications on the export strategies of South Korea's smart farming industry by understanding chinese samrt farm industry.

There are various issues in rural areas. There are population decline, aging, and the absence of jobs and amenities. The government continues to expand various projects for rural areas. Recently, the government is promoting smart village projects in farming and fishing villages. The purpose of smart village is safety, convenience, smartization, and productivity improvement. The purpose of this study is to investigate the project and implementation process of smart villages, and domestic and foreign cases. And it classifies smart villages and suggests implementation strategies. The conclusion is as follows. ①The smart village business focuses on safety, living convenience, facility smartization, and agriculture and fisheries. ②In overseas cases, the smart village project focuses on improving the residential environment of farming and fishing villages in the EU, the UK, and Germany. Japan focuses on improving energy and agricultural and fisheries productivity. ③It is recommended that the smart village business be subdivided and promoted as much as possible. And the project enhances synergy in cooperation with other government ministries. ④Smart services increase credibility through FGI for public officials and residents. ⑤The project is carried out in consideration of agricultural products, tourism festivals, natural environment, history and tradition.
