Ensuring safe food for a growing population is a challenge for agriculture. The current systems of intensive agriculture are based on important allocations of factors of production per unit area, like chemical fertilizers and pesticides, allocated in order to stimulate production. In doing so, food security is ensured, by obtaining high yields per hectare, but chemical residues may remain in food and human health is jeopardised. The aim of this research is to identify the role of digitalization in agriculture in balancing the binomial food security-organic farming, starting from the premise that smart agriculture has a significantly lower negative impact on the environment and human health compared to the conventional agricultural system. The relevance of research lies in raising awareness of the importance of smart agriculture in providing agricultural products obtained in accordance with the principles of sustainable development and moreover integrating it into policies and actions at all levels: individual, local, national and global.

An increasing number of scientific papers has been written on the topic of resilience. It explains the way individuals and regions face to shocks and stressors. It focuses on farmers' resilience and food security. The main shocks related to food insecurity are weather variability, volatility, and agricultural assets. We assume that the level of assets plays a role in assessing the risk level of individuals' exposure to shocks and stressors. The case of Romania is discussed, using statistical data concerning land, machineries and livestock, as main agricultural assets. The data have been analyzed using simple regression model. The results show medium influences of the agricultural assets on food supply. Significant influences have registered in macro region four: West and South-West, for land, machineries and swine. The results can be used in political frameworks and strategies and to widening the knowledge in the field of farmers' resilience.

Agriculture faces significant challenges related to globalpopulation growth, climate change and pressure on naturalresources. In this paper, the positive impact of integratingdigitalization into farming practices to promote sustainabilityand efficiency in the agricultural sector is explored. Theresearch aims to highlight the importance of smart farmingin the sustainable development of agriculture. This analysiswill be carried out at the level of scientific studies conductedaccording to the Scopus database. The main results showthat the interest in exploring IoT and digitalization inagriculture has increased in the last ten years, mostlybecause adopting sustainable practices and regenerativetechnologies minimizes the environmental impact andpromotes biodiversity. The findings add knowledge tothe literature and contribute to a better understanding ofthe benefits of implementing digitalization in agriculture;as such, farmers make more informed decisions aboutfertilization, irrigation, and crop protection, while reducingresource use and environmental impact.
