Abstract

The present study focuses on analyzing innovative technologies applied to crop management in modern agriculture, with an emphasis on fruit trees. The main objective was to understand how these technologies enhance the efficiency, sustainability, and productivity of fruit crop cultivation, aimed at meeting increasing demand and promoting sustainable agricultural practices. The research is structured in three phases. In the first phase, databases documenting the evolution of conventional agricultural practices are reviewed. The second phase focuses on the scientific and technical literature of the last decade, highlighting recent advances in agricultural technologies. The third phase focused on classifying ongoing research and development, providing a forward-looking view of emerging trends. Multidisciplinary analysis criteria were used that include efficiency in the use of resources, environmental sustainability, crop management, post-harvest management and the capacity for large-scale implementation. Innovative technologies identified include precision agriculture, the use of remote sensors, artificial intelligence applied to crop monitoring, and the implementation of crop control systems. The results highlight that innovative technologies in crop management can improve the efficiency of agricultural production by up to 30%, reduce dependence on pesticides, fertilizers and minimize negative environmental impact. In conclusion, the strategic adoption of these technologies can transform agriculture, providing key solutions for global food security and long-term sustainability.
