The integration of digital technologies in agriculture has great prospects in solving the problems of global food security in the 21st century. The future lies in big data and the analyses based on it. This paper analyses existing research in order to reveal the impact of digital agriculture on food security. The paper considers technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), global positioning system (GPS) and blockchain. These technologies are analysed for their role in optimizing agricultural processes and transforming traditional farming practices. The results of the study reveal the impact of data analytics on data-driven decision making, accurate resource management, and greater transparency across the entire food value chain. Data analytics empowers both large enterprises and SMEs by promoting sustainable practices while adapting to the challenges of climate change. This study also focuses on technology accessibility, data security, knowledge integration, and policy frameworks. Aligning technological solutions with socio-economic, environmental and ethical considerations, digital agriculture becomes a key solution to achieve sustainable and equitable global food security.
