Abstract
The chapter starts with a focus on the current scenario of the digitalization in agriculture space. It pinpoints the reason behind the need and explains the emergence of new Agtech-based startups that work on new innovative digital technologies. The chapter also tries to discuss the post-COVID implications along with the merits of digitalization in the agricultural domain. Apart from this, it also discusses different aspects of the digitalization on the agriculture space in general that includes the concept of telematics, precision farming, blockchain, artificial intelligence, etc. At last, some of the main challenges like the issue of connectivity, interoperability, portability, and need of public and private sector cooperation were discussed.
