Abstract

In the modern world, information and communication technologies play an important role in the development of agricultural production, influencing the social, economic and political life of society and the state as a whole. The introduction of such technologies makes it possible to improve the quality of products and services, and to increase the export of agricultural and food products. Existing agricultural technologies make it possible to analyze and process large amounts of information, combine various information resources on one platform, control and reduce production risks, meet the information needs of a wide range of stakeholders, from the state to the end consumer, and guarantee security in cyberspace. An important role in the digitalization of agriculture is played by the resource potential of people employed in agriculture. Particular attention is paid to the development of scientific centers, training courses, where modern highprecision agricultural technologies are studied in-depth. The authors of the article examined the trends in the development of digital agriculture in the countries of Europe and Central Asia, where agricultural production is the fundamental basis of state policy.
