Abstract

Cloud farming, a novel e-commerce model enabled by technologies such as the Internet of Things and big data, is reshaping the landscape of rural agricultural development. By allowing urban consumers to remotely participate in livestock farming through digital platforms, cloud farming establishes a direct connection between producers and consumers, enhances land and labor value in rural areas, and stimulates financial investment. This editorial explores the technical foundations, advantages, and potential risks of cloud farming, including concerns over market uncertainty, financial misconduct, environmental impact, and data security. It concludes that while cloud farming presents considerable promise for rural revitalization and urban-rural integration, its sustainable development requires robust risk management, institutional support, and further academic exploration.
