Abstract: Agriculture 4.0 can drive the growth of the agricultural production in emerging countries like Brazil, which is known as one of the primary food and meat producers worldwide, by offering a range of technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), Blockchain, and Machine Learning. However, the development of agriculture 4.0 in Brazil is a complex process, and more needs to be known about the real barriers that impact its adoption among the actors of the agricultural production chain. There is a need for more empirical studies about the perception of Brazilian farmers regarding the barriers that may compromise the successful path of agriculture 4.0.
