As it is shown in the article the application of biotechnologies is factor of increase of innovation economy. The influence of biotechnologies on the development of world economy is shown. Classification of methods is resulted depending on the sphere of the use of biotechnologies. As a result of analysis of development of biotechnologies in different countries, priority directions for use the innovative methods of production are determined for these countries.

The analysis of development of biotechnologies in the Ukrainian economy testifies to substantial lag from world leaders. Pre-conditions which was folded in the country for forming of bioindustry are investigated. Being based on potential possibilities of Ukraine, directions of the use of innovative biotechnologies are offered. The mechanisms of realization of biotechnologies in a production are offered. Directions of action of synergetic effect are determined: receipt of new raw material sources of own origin; production of goods with a high value added which does not have anthropogenic influence on nature; increase of efficiency of APC; creation of new workplaces and development of the depressed regions
