The production of agriculture has undergone new modifications as a result of agricultural technologies. These not only boost agricultural output but may also significantly raise the caliber of produced food, cut labor expenses, boost farmers' incomes, and achieve agricultural modernization. The use of precision agriculture (PA) is expanding due to the rapid socioeconomic changes that are occurring in certain developing nations. There are enormous ramifications for urbanization, energy consumption, and economic growth in certain developing nations when fundamental changes occur. The research status and current agricultural technology achievements are carefully summarized in this study. In-depth discussions of thirteen significant agricultural technologies are provided in this article. All significant technologies from developed countries are discussed so that under-developed and lower-developed countries will benefit from this paper. Finally, some fresh concepts for each technology are offered, and potential issues in establishing such sophisticated technologies are identified. The main objective of this review is to increase knowledge of modern agriculture and the development process in the agricultural field.
