Abstract: The modern, technological and increasingly dynamic world in which we live gradually requires a change not only in the way of thinking, but also in the way of working in every field of activity, including agrarian business. Gradually, during the different stages of its development, agriculture goes through different epochs and stages of development. At the present stage, agriculture has successfully passed the degree of mechanization, precision and has confidently focused on digitalization. This report aims to reveal the essence of digital agriculture, to distinguish it from precision and to highlight the opportunities, obstacles and prospects for its development. In order to achieve this goal, a survey has been developed covering agricultural producers, leaseholders and students from the agricultural business. Methods of deduction, induction, comparative analysis, survey method and pre-structured in-depth interview are applied.
