The goal is to outline main provisions of the concepts “Industry 4.0” and “Industry 5.0”, to show main directions of digital transformation of agricultural facilities and the fifth industrial revolution. Methods – systematic approach, comparative analysis, expert-analytical. Results - it is noted that the main component of Industry 5.0 is the widespread use of robots, cobots, big data technologies, blockchain and artificial intelligence in production processes. One of the promising trends in the development of digital economy within the framework of Industry 5.0 projects is creation and implementation of robot managers used in management of firms, enterprises, and business structures. A block diagram of robot manager and description of the work are presented, blocks for inputting incoming information from divisions of economic entity and analytical one that provides statistical and dynamic data analysis, model for solving optimization coordination problems based on theory of optimal management, methods and models of artificial intelligence, fuzzy logic and neural networks, blocks for developing various options for the results of management actions and selecting the most acceptable one, and information and reference blocks, allowing the manager to have the necessary information about the state of production and economic activities. Conclusions - spread of robot managers in agricultural sector will ensure the use of end-to-end digital technologies: big data, algorithmic intelligence, distributed registry technologies (blockchain), additive technologies, wireless communication technologies, etc. The use of robot managers in agricultural sector will create favorable conditions for increasing profitability of production, improvement of its economic indicators. Their development is aimed at reducing current production costs and production costs, which in the current economic conditions is a priority need for agricultural producers in order to positively change the financial condition of their functioning.
