About
Dr. Sapna Jarial is a leading researcher at the intersection of agricultural extension and digital innovation. Her work primarily focuses on leveraging the Internet of Things (IoT) and precision agriculture to revitalize the farming sector, with a particular emphasis on addressing the challenges faced by smallholder farmers in India. Her most-cited paper, "Internet of Things application in Indian agriculture, challenges and effect on the extension advisory services – a review" (2022, 43 citations), provides a critical analysis of how Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies can transform unsustainable farming practices. This seminal review not only maps the potential of IoT for precision agriculture but also highlights the crucial role of extension advisory services in bridging the digital divide. By examining the socio-economic barriers that drive young farmers away from agriculture, Dr. Jarial’s work offers actionable insights for policymakers and practitioners. Her research is instrumental in demonstrating how smart farming solutions can make agriculture more attractive and sustainable for the next generation, cementing her reputation as a key voice in the modernization of Indian agriculture.
