Addressing Challenges and Opportunities: A Critical Assessment of RFID Adoption in Agriculture

Abstract
This review paper critically assesses the challenges and opportunities associated with Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) adoption in agriculture. RFID technology has the potential to revolutionize agricultural processes, offering benefits such as improved supply chain management, enhanced livestock tracking, and data-driven decision-making. However, its implementation also faces various obstacles, including technical, economic, and integration challenges. Through an in-depth analysis, this review explores the socio-economic and environmental implications of RFID adoption, considering its impact on labor dynamics, job displacement, rural communities, energy consumption, and waste generation. The paper concludes with insights into the future prospects of RFID integration in agriculture and provides strategic recommendations for overcoming challenges and ensuring responsible adoption.
