Abstract
  • This literature review employs the Scientific Procedures and Rationales for Systematic Literature Reviews (SPAR-4-SLR) framework to comprehensively analyze the impact of disruptive technologies on the agricultural sector, often characterized as the Agriculture Revolution. The review's primary focus lies on understanding how disruptive technologies influence business model transformation, enhance operational efficiency, promote sustainability, and mitigate supply chain disruptions within the agricultural domain. By systematically reviewing existing research, this study seeks to consolidate knowledge, identify research gaps, and provide valuable insights for the future development of agriculture in the era of disruptive technologies.
