Abstract

The adoption and patronage of the internet by the current generation has propelled enormous endorsement of agriculture technology applications. Agriculture technology should be prioritized by policymakers to ensure its development and orientation of the youth towards radical amendments to agricultural farming, and food sustainability. Notwithstanding, little or no empirical evidence is there to support policy implementation toward agriculture technology in Ghana. This study brings to discovery the imperativeness to institute and implement policies to support youth technological farming as it serves as the cornerstone to mitigate unemployment, improve food security, and sustainable economic development. We used a content analysis approach and generalized linear models, based on the technology acceptance model theory for analysis. This study outlines policies such as agriculture technology and integration strategies that are required for effective implementation to curtail the constraints within the agricultural sector such as dynamics in climate patterns, inadequate policy enforcement measures, and integration strategies. The study addresses this research gap and elucidates factors that contribute to youth participation in technological farming and the potential achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals. We justify the need to establish a framework such as digital advertisement, formidable implementation, and integration policy to mitigate the misconception about farming.
