Information technology for small businesses in the agricultural sector

At the heart of modern agricultural production in the world is an increase in the science intensity of manufactured products. One of the areas of this process is the introduction of digital technology into production. Digitalization is changing the appearance and structure of the economies of countries and regions, while the competitiveness of industries of individual countries in world markets is increasing, which contributes to the growth of national economies. The digitalization of agricultural production is typical for many countries of the world. The new national priorities of Russia imply the use of digital technology to ensure the country's entry into the number of the largest economies in the world. With this in mind, the issue of digitalization of activities in small and medium-sized businesses is very relevant. The purpose of the study is to analyze the experience of digitalization by small forms of business, determine its potential and justify replicating this experience using monographic, comparative and systemic analysis, as well as other methods. Dissemination of information on positive experiences of using digital technology will contribute to their wider dissemination among small businesses.
