This brief essay explores the correlation between Industry 4.0 (I4.0) and the agricultural sectors and the benefits they offer. Agriculture 4.0, the use of I4.0 technology in agriculture, has the potential to bring about a profound transformation in the agricultural sector by fostering sustainability. The advantages encompass catering to the increasing food requirements resulting from the rising human populace, attaining sustainable economic savings over time, improving food safety, and optimizing human resources. Integrating I4.0 into agriculture would improve productivity by reducing unnecessary workforce and addressing occupational health risks. Hence, implementing I4.0 technologies has considerable promise in promoting sustainable food production by leveraging data-driven decision-making, optimizing resource management, and improving efficiency in agricultural practices. In the age of I4.0, human resources (HR) 4.0 is crucial in utilizing digital technology to manage human resources efficiently and achieve organizational success, particularly in the agriculture industry.
