Digitalization of agriculture in Russia

the article is devoted to the relevance of the digitalization process in agriculture. In the article, the authors emphasize the need to use digital technologies as a tool for effectively transferring business processes to a higher level. The need for global implementation of digital technologies is noted both on the scale of a single enterprise and an industry or the economy of the country as a whole. The authors emphasize that, being an important component of the general informatization process, digitalization in the agricultural sector now consists of the most important components, such as production digitalization; big data and their analytics; formation and stable filling and constant updating of databases, as well as digitalization of the implementation process. Since the realities are characterized by political tension and sanctions processes, difficulties in staffing and rising costs and prices, advanced communication technologies will help to strengthen the processes of strengthening the country's food security. As a result of the work, the authors came to the conclusion that digitalization processes in agriculture determine the transition to a new technological structure; there are various technologies, hardware devices and software that allow remotely receiving data on the condition of plants and animals, soil, and other indicators that contribute to the effective management of processes in agriculture; in domestic agricultural organizations, digitalization processes are developing dynamically at a level of more than 10% per year; the overall level of digitalization in agricultural organizations is average and below average, which determines significant reserves for growth and qualitative changes.
