🧠 Problem Title: Traditional farming to smart farming: What is the missing link
📝 Problem Description

The shift from traditional farming to smart farming is slow and uneven due to multiple barriers. A major problem is the lack of awareness among farmers about modern technologies such as sensors, drones, and automated irrigation systems. Many farmers still rely on traditional knowledge and methods, as they are not exposed to new advancements., Another key issue is low digital literacy. Farmers often do not have the skills required to use smartphones, mobile applications, or data-based platforms, which are essential for smart farming. This creates difficulty in understanding and applying new techniques.Inadequate infrastructure further limits adoption. Many rural areas face problems like poor internet connectivity and unreliable electricity supply, which are necessary for operating modern farming systems., There is also a gap between research and practical use. Technologies developed by agricultural scientists do not always reach farmers effectively or are not suitable for local conditions.
