# Revolution 4.0: Industry vs. Agriculture in a Future Development for SMEs
## 4 Revolution from 4.0 to 5.0: Industry vs. Agriculture  
Through a literature review, Industry 4.0 and Agriculture 4.0 appeared very recently in literature (Figure 6). A wide-ranging literature, including proceedings paper, articles, editorial material, book chapter, review, book) was carried out from a scientific database (Web of science) related to knowledge sharing, transfer and flow. However, there is a gap among these two terms. Industry 4.0 is strongly cited from 2014, while Agriculture 4.0 is only recently quoted. The most examined suggestions derived from the field of manufacturing e.g., details of the new production methods [80; 81; 82; 83], combination of firms, suppliers, and customers [84; 85; 34], logistics processes [86], lean production [87; 88], qualified workers [89], and new managerial practices [90]. Among these contributions, Industry 4.0 also refers to SMEs [91] since Industry 4.0 characterizes a greater challenge due to the reduced size and SMEs are also recognized in a different cluster of studies [92], while recent articles on agriculture 4.0 dealt with digital transformation and environmental attention [47; 50].  
Less than a decade has passed since the literature started talking about Industry 4.0, which is already moving towards the next revolution: Industry 5.0 [93; 94; 95]. While the current revolution emphasizes the transformation of factories into intelligent IoT-enabled structures that use cognitive processing and interconnection via cloud servers [37; 40], Industry 5.0 focuses on the return of human hands and minds to the industrial environment [93; 96].  
The transformation of the modern industry into a smart chain is the keystone of the industry of the new millennium. No matter how quickly or slowly some firms implement the Industry 4.0 or 5.0 models, the basic principles will undoubtedly determine the world of production of the future [95] Firms that properly implement these new principles will experience significant growth with the capabilities provided by IoT devices, computer systems, and cognitive computing [97; 98].  
In a few years' time, factory workers and robots may end up working together on the design and sharing of workload across a variety of manufacturing processes [99; 100; 101]. While robots are excellent for producing standard products in standardized processes in a high volume of production, customizing each individual product can be a challenge where robots need to be guided [102]. Therefore, it is essential to maintain human contact within production processes. In production processes, automation can only be exploited to its full potential when there is a spark of human creativity that influences the processes: collaborative robots or \"cobots\", working with people [103; 104; 105].  
The major advances, expected from Industry 5.0, concern the interaction between machinery, lot, and people, which is expected to take production to new levels of speed and accuracy [103]. As artificial intelligence improves, the interaction among computers, robots, and workers will eventually become more significant [102; 103]. As technological innovations become faster and faster, revolutions could eventually follow one another in rapid succession over the next 10 years. While the first three industrial revolutions took decades, today's revolutions only last until industrial implementation is complete [106].  
The fourth industrial revolution allows firms to combine productivity and speed to respond to the market, making the system more productive and competitive. It is evident that those, who do not take this path, risk being excluded from global competition.
