Abstract

Given the growth of digital technologies development and adoption in the agribusiness ecosystem, which represents an expanding market, the present study verifies the influence of new digital technologies in agribusiness and how the innovation ecosystem actors help develop and implement them. Eighteen semi-structured interviews were conducted with different actors in the agricultural ecosystem. The results show that the digitization process in the sector is still slow due to different barriers related to network infrastructure, the lack of knowledge and skills, and the resistance to technology adoption by farmers, mainly small and medium-sized producers. In this context, the ecosystem actors play a fundamental role: universities with research on tips that impact the sector and public and private companies promoting the use of technologies and being a link between their developers and the farmer.
