About

Rosamaria Cox Moura-Leite is a researcher whose work sits at the intersection of agribusiness, technology, and sustainability. Her primary research areas include Agribusiness 4.0, the adoption of precision agriculture technologies, and the socio-economic impacts of automation on rural production systems. Her most notable contribution is the development of a methodology for choosing robotic milking systems, as detailed in her 2024 paper "Agribusiness 4.0: methodology for choosing robotic milking systems." This work provides a practical, analytic framework—using the Analytic Hierarchy Process—to help dairy farmers select and implement robotic milking technology, bridging the gap between advanced automation and real-world farm management. While her citation count is still growing, the paper represents a foundational step in operationalizing Agribusiness 4.0 concepts. Moura-Leite’s research is particularly valuable for students and professionals in agricultural engineering, rural management, and technology adoption, offering clear, actionable insights into how robotics can enhance efficiency and sustainability in dairy farming. Her work underscores a commitment to making cutting-edge technology accessible and beneficial for small and medium-sized agricultural producers.
