Sustainable agriculture can be achieved through management strategies that assist the producers in selecting hybrids and varieties, soil conservation practices, biodiversity conservation, and pest management systems. In other words, the purpose of digital agriculture is to minimize the negative impact on the environment by producing a stable level of production and profit. The objective of this research is to analyze the state of affairs of the agricultural sector in the Republic of Moldova and to examine digital technologies as effective solutions for the sustainable development of the agriculture.
