About

Marilena Gemtou is at the forefront of agricultural innovation, specializing in the integration of cutting-edge technologies to address global food security challenges. Her primary research areas span Agriculture 5.0, precision farming, and the application of robotics and extended reality (XR) in agricultural systems. In her landmark 2024 paper, *"Agriculture 5.0: Cutting-Edge Technologies, Trends, and Challenges,"* which has garnered 58 citations, Gemtou provides a comprehensive analysis of the sector’s evolution from Agriculture 2.0 to 5.0, emphasizing how advanced technologies can tailor efficiency and sustainability to individual field and livestock needs. This work has become a foundational reference for researchers and policymakers navigating the digital transformation of agriculture. More recently, in her 2025 review, *"Applications of Robotics and Extended Reality in Agriculture,"* she addresses the critical labor shortage threatening global food safety, exploring how robotic systems and XR technologies can bridge the gap toward full Agriculture 5.0 implementation. Gemtou’s contributions are particularly notable for their forward-looking perspective, identifying both the immense potential and the developmental hurdles of these emerging technologies. Her work continues to shape the discourse on sustainable, technology-driven agricultural practices.
