The article aims to study the trends in the development of agricultural cooperation in the context of the digitalization of the economy, and identify problematic elements of development and determine the development trend for the future.   Theoretical framework: The theoretical basis of the research was formed by the scientific works of leading domestic and foreign scientists on the considered research problem.   Methodology: The research used methods of analysis and synthesis of economic information, statistical data, an integrated and systematic approach to assessing economic phenomena. The research used literature review, data analysis and synthesis as key methods to analyze trends, identify problems and draw conclusions.   Results and Discussion: The article discusses the existing positive shifts in the agricultural sector and why they do not provide desired dynamic development of agricultural producers. It identifies problems that slow down integration into the digital ecosystem and discusses certain problems that do not allow to increase production efficiency.   Conclusion: The key factors in the development of agricultural cooperation are identified. Conditions necessary for further development of agricultural cooperation are outlined, including effective involvement of representatives in the digital ecosystem.
