  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."
