Abstract

A macroeconomic strategy for achieving sustainable economic growth is offered by the green economy, with a particular emphasis on investments, jobs, and digital skills among farmers. To hasten and solidify the sustainable changes in consumption and production patterns required Internet of Things (IoT) smart technologies, multi-stakeholder engagements and grassroots digital agricultural implementation for the development of the green economy. A modern and dynamic way to helping farmers, extension services, agri-business, and policy-makers grasp creative solutions to technology-driven food security is the use of IoT Smart technologies for sustainable rural agricultural employment. In this research, a sample size of 385 farmers from Agricultural Development Project in the Selected States of Katsina, Kano and Jigawa were included in the study, which used a survey methodology. Three hundred and eighty-five (385) respondents who provided the primary statistical data for this study through the application of a series of pre-tested and structured questionnaires were chosen using a multi-stage, combined with purposive and random sampling approaches. Descriptive statistics were used to analyse the collected data relating to the study. The research discovered that accurately priced goods, better market placement, and enhanced production methods will all be possible with the use of IoT smart technology connectivity chain in farming as Information communication technology (ICT) in agriculture will give farmers more knowledge and guidance on best practices through the government extension service engagements. The paper concluded that agricultural research and investment will have a big impact on the increase of the food supply due to technological improvements, and this will be crucial for guaranteeing future food security and sustainable food production through innovative IoT farming.

AB  - A macroeconomic strategy for achieving sustainable economic growth is offered by the green economy, with a particular emphasis on investments, jobs, and digital skills among farmers. To hasten and solidify the sustainable changes in consumption and production patterns required Internet of Things (IoT) smart technologies, multi-stakeholder engagements and grassroots digital agricultural implementation for the development of the green economy. A modern and dynamic way to helping farmers, extension services, agri-business, and policy-makers grasp creative solutions to technology-driven food security is the use of IoT Smart technologies for sustainable rural agricultural employment. In this research, a sample size of 385 farmers from Agricultural Development Project in the Selected States of Katsina, Kano and Jigawa were included in the study, which used a survey methodology. Three hundred and eighty-five (385) respondents who provided the primary statistical data for this study through the application of a series of pre-tested and structured questionnaires were chosen using a multi-stage, combined with purposive and random sampling approaches. Descriptive statistics were used to analyse the collected data relating to the study. The research discovered that accurately priced goods, better market placement, and enhanced production methods will all be possible with the use of IoT smart technology connectivity chain in farming as Information communication technology (ICT) in agriculture will give farmers more knowledge and guidance on best practices through the government extension service engagements. The paper concluded that agricultural research and investment will have a big impact on the increase of the food supply due to technological improvements, and this will be crucial for guaranteeing future food security and sustainable food production through innovative IoT farming.
