Unified Paradigm of Industry 5.0, City 5.0 and Agriculture 5.0 for Environmental Sustainability

Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: This study adopts a holistic perspective to examine the approaches of Industry 5.0, City 5.0, and Agriculture 5.0, which hold potential for contributing to environmental sustainability goals, and aims to propose the AI-supported ICA 5.0 model as an integrated framework for these three domains. In this context, the study seeks to answer the research question: "How can the paradigms of Industry 5.0, Agriculture 5.0, and City 5.0 be structured within a holistic model to support environmental sustainability goals?" Within the proposed ICA 5.0 model, it is demonstrated that all three domains are structured on the basis of transferring data from physical environments to digital platforms via sensors and analyzing these data using AI-driven techniques. At the core of the model, it is proposed that data obtained through this process be analyzed within a centralized public cloud infrastructure alongside strategies developed by policymakers, through an interdisciplinary approach that supports the formulation of environmentally conscious policies. In addition, the use of blockchain technology in the data collection infrastructure is emphasized to ensure data security and transparency. The study employs qualitative research methods, combining document analysis, descriptive content analysis and case study method. The ICA 5.0 model has been exemplified through a case study focused on Türkiye. The sample of the study consists of 49 research articles published between 01.01.2021 and 31.12.2024 in the Scopus database that are relevant to the research topic. Based on the findings, the study discusses how the ICA 5.0 model can be structured and what contributions it may offer in the context of environmental sustainability.
