Formation of technical potential of agriculture in the conditions of the digital economy

Abstract

The article discusses the role of digitalization of the technical potential of the agricultural industry, describes the factors that have a significant impact on the digitalization of technical potential. The material systematizes data on the formation and development of the technical potential of agriculture. The paper shows that the digital ecosystem is based on the functioning of a complex of electronic platforms, which combine the full range of data on the dynamics of development and the potential of each area of the agro-industrial complex. The elements of production potential, as a historically developing category, have been identified. It was revealed that for the transformation of agriculture, it is necessary to change the development of the reproduction process, which depends, first, on the volume of funds invested, while investments should be aimed at replenishing and updating fixed and circulating assets, the introduction of progressive digital technologies. The basis for the digital transformation of agriculture should be the improvement of the technical characteristics of labor instruments and the equipment of workers, which provides the bulk of the growth in production efficiency.
