Abstract
The article represents an attempt to comprehend the possibilities of applying general methodological principles of design thinking in the process of planning and developing innovative economic development projects in the agricultural sector. The relations of design and visualization as the science and art processes in the economy are outlined. It is noted that smart agriculture uses advanced technologies such as sensors, devices, machines and information technology, robots, GPS technologies, which will allow farms to be more profitable, efficient, safe, and environmentally friendly. The authors claim that the goal of digitalization of agriculture is to achieve a significant increase in the efficiency and sustainability of its functioning through fundamental changes in the quality of management of both technological processes and decision-making processes at all levels of the hierarchy, based on modern production methods, and the further use of information about the state of controlled elements and subsystems, as well as states of the economic environment of agriculture. Based on a study of the use of visualization technologies within the framework of the philosophy of design thinking, it is shown that the introduction of digital technologies in the agro-industrial complex will dramatically increase labor productivity and reduce risks in agriculture. In modern conditions of intense competition, digitalization based on such projects will give the agricultural sector of any country (which is especially important for developing countries) great competitive advantages.
