# Mobile Internet Technology Adoption for Sustainable Agriculture: Evidence from Wheat Farmers
## 6 Conclusions  
The study analyzed a representative data set of 628 wheat farmers to understand the MIT adoption and use in agriculture development. This study used the bivariate probit method for sample selection to examine the crucial factors influencing MIT adoption. The outcomes indicate that farmer's age (H1d) and farm's size (H3a) correlate with MIT adoption. In addition, the study findings suggest that farm location (H3b) is related to farmer's MIT adoption rate. Additionally, educated (H1c) and innovative (H1d) farmers are most likely to adopt MIT. However, the outcomes showed gender (H1b), awareness of IT risks (H2), and farm diversification (H3c) are not correlated with the MIT adoption. Farmers who fully understand the IT danger are more inclined to adopt MIT, which is counterintuitive. The fact that well-informed farmers may have put safety measures to deal with possible risks may explain this result. The implication of this result has two aspects: the apprenticeship should include the digital aspect so that farmers are aware of the potential risks of IT use. Correspondingly, information on measures to ensure online security will also be provided. In addition, agricultural equipment providers that depend on MIT (such as smart agricultural technology) should know farmer's safety issues and strive to clarify the dangers related to MIT to decrease unwillingness in the adoption process. This may also be achieved by providing a certificate or stamping. The innovations of large farms and young farmers are the focus groups of marketing pursuits because they are expected to become MIT adopters. For example, suppliers and providers of cutting-edge and modern agricultural technology can focus on marketing mobile phones to achieve their focus group. These findings indicate that the young farmers of large farms are expected to utilize MIT. Therefore, providers can emphasize the possibility of integrating MDs and IT with these tools for this focus group. Moreover, this research benefits the farmers to increase their agricultural production by adopting MIT, which ultimately enhances their skills for modern agriculture. On the other hand, this study also benefits policymakers to understand the advantage of MIT for modern agriculture and their role in supporting farmers through IT infrastructure development. However, policymakers of this region/country should consider expanding the coverage of MIT in remote areas. The results also highlight the need for wheat farmers to have MIT services in the study area. To gain more insights, consider the farmer's location and satisfaction with mobile broadband coverage, not just the farm's location. This study has some limitations. Firstly, the current research was conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic issues. Secondly, due to financial concerns, this study only focused on four districts in the KPK province of Pakistan. Hence, an inclusive study is needed in future research. The data essentially cover one province in Pakistan, so it is difficult to generalize the conclusions at the national level. Therefore, future studies should use more representative samples, which may have wider implications for rural Pakistan. Possible research must examine how and to what extent MIT use promotes farmer's income and market participation to facilitate a supply chain asset and financial efficiency perspective. However, this study provides different starting points for other research projects. For instance, this research can be applied to other developed and developing countries. An in-depth analysis of farmer's awareness and familiarity with specific MIT risks, such as phishing, should also be carried out. It is also worth examining how farmers specifically integrate MIT and related internet content or associated applications into their farm business responsibilities. Additionally, it may be interesting to see how mobile and fixed internet technologies differ in retrieving farm business-related information. **Author Contributions:** N.K., R.L.R., H.S.K. and S.Z.
