The promise of technology development in agriculture is well publicised with some claiming that digital disruption will transform the way farming and food production is done in the future. For farm advisers, engaging in smart farming involves managing the proliferation of new forms of information, new knowledge and networks and new technical devices that produce digitised representations of farm performance. The nature and effects of digital practices in particular poses challenges for farm advisers as they seek to understand how digital tools and services can be integrated into their service delivery for improved farm decision making. In this paper we present insights from a co-design process with private farm advisers and ask: What enables farm advisers to engage with digital innovation? And, how can digital innovation be supported and practiced in smart farming contexts? Digital innovation presents challenges for farmers and advisers due to the new relationships, skills, arrangements, techniques and devices required to realise value for farm production and profitability from digital tools and services. We show how a co-design process supported farm advisers to adapt their routine advisory practices through recognising and engaging with the social, material and symbolic practices of digiware in smart farming. We demonstrate the need to recognise ‘digiware as constituted in and by heterogeneous practices from which possibilities for digital innovation emerge. These possibilities include the increased capacity of farm advisers to identify the value proposition of smart farming tools and services for theirs and their clients’ businesses, and the adaptation of advisory services in ways that harnass and mobilise diverse skills, knowledge/s, materials and representations for translating digital data, digital infrastructure and digital capacities into better decisions for farm management.

农业技术发展的前景已广为流传，有人声称数字化破坏将改变未来农业和粮食生产的方式。对于农场顾问而言，从事智能农业涉及管理新形式的信息，新知识，新网络和新技术设备的扩散，这些信息可产生农场绩效的数字化表示。数字化实践的性质和影响尤其给农场顾问带来挑战，因为他们寻求了解如何将数字化工具和服务整合到他们的服务提供中，以改善农场决策。在本文中，我们将提供与私人农场顾问共同设计过程中的见解，并提出以下问题：什么使农场顾问能够参与数字创新？和，如何在智能农业环境中支持和实践数字创新？数字创新为农民和顾问带来了挑战，因为实现新的关系，技能，安排，技术和设备需要实现数字化工具和服务的农业生产价值和盈利能力。我们展示了一个共同设计过程如何通过识别和参与智能农业中数码陶器的社会，物质和象征性实践，来支持农场顾问适应其常规咨询实践。我们证明有必要认识到“ digiware是由异类实践构成并由异类实践构成的，数字创新由此而来。这些可能性包括提高农业顾问确定其及其客户业务的智能农业工具和服务的价值主张的能力，
