- Abstract
The exacerbation of the need for sustenance is attributable to a diminution in arable terrain, which has been reassigned to facilitate the proliferation of urbanized regions. In urban areas, various agricultural methods are employed. However, it is essential to note that the initiatives mentioned earlier are expected to yield minimal effects on the agricultural sector. In light of this, enhancing these capabilities and advantages by integrating technological advancements is imperative. This article examines the effects of various emerging technologies on urban agriculture. These technologies encompass many advancements, such as The Internet of Things, Automation, Robotics, Mesh Technology, Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence, Atmega16 Microcontroller, Digital Twins, Genetic Modification, Additive Manufacturing, Renewable Energy, Climate-Smart Agriculture Techniques, and Nanotechnology. The investigation employed a methodological strategy that conformed to the mixed- method research paradigm, encompassing a comprehensive literature review and examining multiple case studies. The analysis of every technology encompasses evaluating its various applications and examining its inherent advantages and limitations. Furthermore, this study offers valuable insights and suggestions for potential future research and development avenues.
