In my opinion, the smart agriculture is very important for the poverty reduction. Because when we master the technology, we can improve the production efficiency and reduce the farmers‘ cost. Like the US, the farmers' income are very high, and they needn't input too much energy. So as a farmer in the US, the life is very comfortable. But in China, on the contrary, our farmers have to work all days, and the income is very low. The main reason is that technology lag behind. Therefore, the technology is helpful to reduce poverty.
