Abstract

Do technology cause agriculture losses? Do technology cause agricultural job losses? Though it is a popular belief, it does, not all agriculture leader considers it this way. The opinion that the traditional approach to agriculture jobs will be eliminated for contemporary ones consequence on the arrival of artificial intelligence, robotics, and internet of things, automation, and technology differs from sector to sector. The computer is becoming smarter, creative, and sophisticated hence; making previous roles out of model or fashion. These desires have made agricultural workplaces develop a dependency on the RAIA (Robotics Artificial Intelligence & Automation) system. Many studies have expressed the concern that RAIA may turn out so advanced that aside from displacing humans in the place of work, it will become so complex in such a way that humans wont be able to control it. The current study attempt to address this concern. It provides answers to the question what is the impact of RAIA on current employability and agricultural work satisfaction? It adopted the cross-sectional research data collection and exploratory design to analyze its objective. About 50 respondents were drawn from the researcher's personal, and professional networks. The participants are all working-class adults from various agricultural firms and from this sector. An overview of the thematic process suggests that the impacts of RAIA are not detrimental. It is not meant to substitute human but to complement. The thematic analysis also provides other findings for agricultural firms and government as detailed in the study result presented. Following this result, the study proposes that irrespective of the unforeseen risk of RAIA, agricultural jobs are secured. Employees of the agricultural sector should keep evolving with technology to remain employable.
