text: "Purpose: This study aims at investigating how digitalisation (in the sense
of industry 4.0) has changed the work of farmers and how they experience the changes
from more traditional work to digitalised agriculture. It also investigates what
knowledge farmers require on digitalised farms and how they acquire it. Dairy
farming was used as domain of investigation since it, unlike other industries,
has strongly been affected by digitalisation throughout the last years.\r\n\r\nMethod:
Exploratory interviews with 10 livestock farmers working on digitalised dairy
farms were analysed using qualitative content analysis. A deductive and inductive
coding strategy was used. \r\n\r\nFindings: Farming work has changed from more
manual tasks towards symbol manipulation and data processing. Farmers must be
able to use computers and other digital devices to retrieve and analyse sensor
data that allow them to monitor and control the processes on their farm. For this
new kind of work, farmers require elaborated mental models that link traditional
farming knowledge with knowledge about digital systems, including a strong understanding
of production processes underlying their farm. Learning is mostly based on instructions
offered by manufacturers of the new technology as well as informal and non-formal
learning modes. Even younger farmers report that digital technology was not sufficiently
covered in their (vocational) degrees. In general, farmers emphasises the positive
effects of digitalisation both on their working as well as private life. \r\n\r\nConclusions:
Farmers should be aware of the opportunities as well as the potential drawbacks
of the digitalisation of work processes in agriculture. Providers of agricultural
education (like vocational schools or training institutes) need to incorporate
the knowledge and skills required to work in digitalised environments (e.g., data
literacy) in their syllabi. Further studies are required to assess how digitalisation
changes farming practices and what knowledge as well as skills linked to these
developments are required in the future."
