INNOVATIVE TRANSFORMATIONS OF THE AGRICULTURAL COMPLEX IN THE CONTEXT OF GLOBAL CHALLENGES OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

Abstract

Abstract. It is determined that ensuring food security and healthy nutrition for the growing population of the planet will remain a challenge for the world community. The global dominants and tendencies of development of agro-production activity within the global market of agro-food products are analyzed. The grouping of leading countries with a highly innovative agro-industrial sector, which is formed taking into account the goals of sustainable development based on the construction of a clustering model using the K-Means algorithm is done. Their experience of formation of the state policy directed for support of innovative transformations of agrarian and industrial complex is generalized and recommendations on implementation of their best achievements in the domestic agricultural sector are offered. The aim of the work is a comprehensive assessment of innovative transformations taking place in the agricultural sector in the context of the challenges of global sustainable development. The task of the research is to determine the most successful group of countries in terms of implementation of intensification of production activities, the effectiveness of innovation policy and the ability to meet the demand for food, taking into account the requirements of sustainable development; providing recommendations for the modernization of agricultural production of domestic producers. The following methods of scientific research were used to achieve the goal and solve the problems of the article: system analysis, forecasting, generalization, modeling, namely clustering by the K-Means algorithm, etc. The scientific novelty of the obtained results is to provide comprehensive recommendations for the formation of domestic public policy aimed at supporting innovative transformations in the agroindustrial sector, based on key factors and determinants of its development and taking into account the best practices of leading countries in this field.Keywords: agricultural production, innovations, sustainable development, state support.JEL Classification O13, O39, Q01, Q17, F63Formulas: 0; fig.: 2; tabl.: 2; bibl.: 20.
