On October 25, as part of the Faculty of Economics and Management Week, an open lecture titled “Digital Transformation in Agricultural Production: EU Experience” was held for students and faculty at Sumy National Agrarian University. The event was conducted by Professor Leonid Melnyk, who discussed innovative approaches and technologies in agriculture that are actively utilised in the EU to achieve sustainable development goals.
The lecture emphasised the importance of integrating digital technologies in agriculture to meet sustainable development objectives, including food security, environmental protection, and improving social conditions for agricultural workers. Innovative digital solutions in the agri-sector help make informed decisions, leading to more efficient use of natural resources and reduced adverse environmental impacts.
