Abstract
Digitalization is transforming food security by enhancing efficiency, transparency, and sustainability in agriculture. This study systematically reviews the impact of digital technologies, including IoT, blockchain, AI, and automation, in addressing key food security challenges such as supply chain disruptions, resource inefficiencies, and climate risks. Using a structured methodology, peer-reviewed literature from 2023 to 2024 was analyzed from databases like Scopus and Web of Science. The study follows the PRISMA framework, identifying 29 relevant articles classified into five themes: Emerging Technologies, Digitalization & Sustainability, AI & Automation, Resilience & Optimization, and Knowledge & Innovation. The findings highlight how digitalization improves traceability, predictive analytics, and decision-making in agriculture, enhancing resource management and reducing food waste. However, challenges such as high implementation costs, interoperability issues, and digital literacy gaps hinder adoption. The study emphasizes the need for regulatory frameworks, stakeholder collaboration, and infrastructure investments to maximize the benefits of digital solutions. Integrating AI-driven predictive models and blockchain-enabled transparency mechanisms could further enhance food security by strengthening risk management and supply chain resilience. While digital technologies hold great potential, addressing socioeconomic and technical barriers is crucial for sustainable implementation. Future research should focus on developing inclusive policies and scalable digital solutions to ensure food security in an increasingly digital world.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
