THEORETICAL PRINCIPLES OF INNOVATIONS IN THE AGRO-FOOD SECTOR

The agro-food sector is one of the key industries that provides humanity with essential food products. However, it has faced challenges in sustainable development and environmental safety, raising questions about efficiency sustainability this industry. Accordingly, there ample room for innovation sector. article analyzes innovative activity at present stage. main problems shortcomings industry are identified, most influential factors impede implementation technologies agriculture considered. objectives study to analyze processes agricultural Ukraine, identify hinder industry, list factorsthat will contribute Ukrainian enterprises. Various research methods were used address tasks hand, including general scientific such as analysis synthesis; abstraction; induction deduction, well specialized a monographic approach (during current state Ukraine); comprehensive recommendations innovations agro-industrial sector). It was determined complex occupies leading position among significantly influence economic situation Ukraine. noted thatone roles effective technologies, particularly agriculture, played by infrastructure: technoparks, business incubators, they entering market. use cutting-edge smart production management systems, which make possible increase efficiency, reduce costs, provide more accurate planning, also discussed. Proposed innovations, support fields breeding, nanotechnology, genetic engineering, have significant potential improving resilience
