- Abstract
The paper contains the summarized results of a study of strategic opportunities and risks of digitalization in the Russian agriculture in a context of increasing of productivity, sustainable development of agrifood system and better advancing Russian food and agricultural raw materials in the global food market. It is established that digitalization of the Russian agriculture is at an early stage of development and the digital processes are considerably depending on the firm size (concentrated on large agro-holdings). It is proved that the threats and risks of digitalization in the Russian agriculture are more serious, than in the developed countries, that is caused by an economic situation in the country, rather low competitiveness of the Russian industry (mechanical engineering, electronics), reducing R&D government expenditures and also deficiency of private investments into digitalization.
