摘要
韓國的農業部門正面臨氣候變遷、生產成本壓力、價格波動、市場結構調整與政策轉型等所帶來的巨大不確定性。現行的農業統計數據雖有助於結構性的分析，但多數為年度或不定期調查，無法完整即時掌握農民對當前經營狀況及近期前景的感知。為填補此一資訊缺口，韓國農村經濟研究院（KREI）設計並試行了「農民經濟信心指數（Farmers’ Economic Sentiment Index）」調查。該計畫將農民對當前狀況的評估與未來 12 個月的前景展望進行分離，調查範圍涵蓋農場經營、農村生活與活力、氣候與環境條件，以及農業政策...

智慧農業科技（如物聯網、農場數據管理系統、自動化與數位決策支援工具）正被日益視為可增進高價值水果產業生產力與永續性的關鍵途徑。一項針對馬來西亞榴槤農民的調查數據（樣本數 = 195）顯示，基礎數位網路的涵蓋率已相對普遍，有 149 家受訪的農場表示安裝了網際網路設備；然而，進階性的數位工具採用率仍相對有限，僅有 50 家農場使用農場數據管理系統，且僅 31 家農場引進了物聯網。調查結果亦指出，榴槤的田間作業仍高度集中於人工操作與半機械化，而「智慧農業」的應用則僅侷限於監測、灌溉、...
