Innovative technologies in agricultural production as the most important condition for its effective development

The article examines the problems of development of agricultural production in modern Russia. It is noted that the unfavorable ecological situation in the landscapes of various natural zones of the Russian Federation is a consequence of the intensive use of land resources without observing the necessary environmental requirements. Digital technologies in the agricultural sector of the country's economy are used only in individual farms, which indicates the "island" type of informatization. The reasons for this phenomenon are that software developers for the needs of the agro-industrial complex do not have the necessary database for the creation and operation of specific production technologies. The necessity of introducing various innovative technologies in rural production is substantiated, providing a solution not only to many environmental problems in this area, but also the possibility of obtaining high incomes from their implementation.
