Jelena Ignjatović, Bojana Radović, Petar MatićThe role of agricultural management nowadays can be economic and organizational, technological and innovative, ecological and sustainable, developmental and social and are always accompanied by challenges such as risk management and making timely decisions. In addition, the availability and development of modern modern technologies contribute to timely and accurate monitoring of agricultural production. Today, the role of agricultural management is closely related to digital transformation, which implies the integration of digital technologies in all processes of production, management and distribution. In agricultural production, it manifests itself through smart irrigation systems, the use of drones for crop monitoring, sensors for soil moisture, as well as the use of artificial intelligence for yield analysis. The aim of this paper is to point out the importance of agricultural management in the process of digital transformation of agriculture, with special reference to modern technologies that shape agricultural production. The concepts of smart agriculture, the application of information systems and automation in order to increase the efficiency and sustainability of the agricultural sector were analyzed. In addition to the theoretical framework, the paper includes an example from practice - the application of digital solutions in Dutch agriculture. The paper concludes that digital transformation is a key component of modern agricultural management, which enables competitiveness, rational use of resources and sustainable development.
