Abstract

In the course of agrarian transformations in agriculture in recent decades, there have been profound social and economic changes in the framework of agrarian reform. There has been a trend of transition to new innovative realities in the form of digital transformation of agribusiness, which served as the main goal of the study in the form of analyzing the readiness of agricultural sectors for technical and technological modernization of production and identifying barriers to digitalization of agribusiness. Using generally accepted empirical research methods in the form of a comparison of agribusiness indicators over a number of years, an ambiguous trend in the development of the main production indicators was revealed. From 2011 to 2020 the share of crop production in the Russian Federation in the total volume of agricultural production increased from 50.56% to 53.63%, while the share of animal husbandry decreased by 3.07 percentage points and amounted to 46.37% by 2020. This trend could be a good basis for the introduction of digital technologies. The survey made it possible to cover a large number of respondents and identify a number of problems facing farmers in the transition to a digital economy. Among them: the lack of state support, the high cost of digital products, the lack of awareness of digital innovations, the underdevelopment of infrastructure, the lack of high-tech equipment and personnel with digital competencies. Based on the identified factors hindering the development of digital transformation, the authors propose the main instruments of state and market regulation of the digital transformation of agriculture, which can become the basis for solving a number of problems that have arisen
