The possibility of introducing a new management system on the basis of greening and synergism of state programs of agrarian development and innovation policy is considered. The ways and mechanisms of improvement of ecologically innovative activity are described and the methods of its implementation are proposed. It has been studied that the improvement of the management system of eco-innovative development of rural areas involves changes occurring in the field of planning, employment of the population of the territories, promotion of products, interaction between the authorities, business and the population, and knowledge management.
