Цифровые технологии в свиноводстве России

Abstract

Abstract. The article analyzes the process of promoting digital technologies in pig breeding. Digital transformation is understood as the introduction of modern information technologies at all stages of production, including the fundamental restructuring of the enterprise management system. In the real sector, the introduction of innovative technologies is largely determined by external factors. Federal programs require the promotion of information technologies in all spheres of activity in order to increase labor productivity and achieve the competitiveness of Russian products in international markets. However, the introduction of these technologies is closely related to the organizational form of enterprises. Digital technologies are not always available and economically profitable for medium and small farms. The purpose of the study is to reveal the features of the introduction of digital technologies into the work of pig industry enterprises. Methods. In the course of the research, general scientific methodological approaches and methods of economic analysis were applied. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the substantiation of priority directions for the introduction of innovative technologies in pig breeding. Results. Trends and problems of introduction of digital technologies in pig breeding are revealed. The advantage of pig breeding, in comparison with other branches of agriculture, is a high technological level. In 2015–2020, large Russian enterprises reached European production standards. Dependence on the import of breeding pigs is decreasing. In the context of the deglobalization of the economy, new threats to the promotion of innovation are emerging: on the part of suppliers – a decrease in the supply of ready-made technologies, on the part of manufacturers – a decrease in the profitability of the industry and investment in production. The necessity of state support for digitalization of pig breeding in medium and small farms is substantiated.
