The Role of Digitalization in the Development of Russian Agribusiness Industry

The paper deals with the role of digitalization in the development of Russian agribusiness industry. The authors of the paper studied the level of digitalization in the agribusiness industry of the Russian Federation. The paper presents an assessment of the digital technologies implementation in the national agricultural industry. The authors analyzed the digitalization experience of the Russian Federation entities in the agricultural sector. They also examined the introduction of information and innovative technologies by particular agri-industrial companies in the country. The authors of the paper believe that a merger of all digital services of agri-industrial enterprises into an integrated digital platform for managing all the key processes may become a prospective process in the near future. Agri-industrial producers will use more science-intensive digital technologies in the domain of big data, artificial intelligence, Internet of things, robotics, including integrated digital technologies such as “Smart Land Management”, “Smart Farm”, “Smart Garden”, and others.
