This study explores the adaptation of precision agriculture technologies for mountainous terrains, focusing on their potential to enhance agricultural productivity and sustainability. Mountainous regions present unique challenges such as steep slopes, variable microclimates, and limited accessibility, which necessitate tailored solutions. Through empirical research and a targeted data procedural approach, this research identifies and evaluates precision agriculture technologies suitable for these kind of environments. The findings highlight the effectiveness of geospatial data, UAVs, and GIS in optimizing resource use and monitoring crop health. Case studies from the Andes and Himalayas demonstrate successful implementations, while a comparative analysis reveals the varying levels of effectiveness and suitability of different technologies. The study underscores the importance of involving local farmers in the design and implementation process to ensure the technologies meet their specific needs. Policy implications include the need for financial support and training programs to facilitate adoption, as well as the development of cost-effective and user-friendly solutions. Future research should focus on innovative technologies and their long-term impacts on agricultural productivity, environmental sustainability, and local livelihoods. This research contributes to the broader understanding of sustainable agriculture in challenging environments, offering insights that can aid in the just transition from coal in mountainous areas.
