The integration of digital technologies into agricultural mechanization has emerged as a transformative force in enhancing productivity, efficiency, and sustainability in Uzbekistan’s agricultural sector. This article explores the role of digitalization, including the use of Internet of Things (IoT), drones, GPS-based systems, and artificial intelligence, in modernizing agricultural practices. It highlights Uzbekistan’s progress in adopting digital tools, examines challenges such as financial constraints and limited technical expertise, and proposes strategies to accelerate digital transformation. By analyzing case studies from regions like Surkhandarya and Fergana, the study underscores the potential of digitalization to revolutionize agriculture while addressing environmental and economic concerns.
