Altukhov, A.I.
The article is devoted to the analysis of the technical and technological potential of the country's agriculture and the need for its modernization. It notes that in spite of the more active orientation of agriculture towards the maximum use of the possibilities of scientific and technological progress in all its main areas, nevertheless, for a number of reasons, the branch lags significantly behind in innovative development. Its chronic investment inadequacy is one of the main internal systemic problems in the development of agriculture, the solution of which is largely associated with the low and unstable profitability of most agricultural producers and their significant debt load with limited availability of subsidized investment loans. This situation with attracting investments in agriculture has developed mainly due to the lack of a targeted state policy in the innovation sphere, the use of its most effective organizational and economic mechanisms, as well as due to the unfavorable macroeconomic situation in the country, weakness and of instability of the national economy. In fact, in relation to agriculture, the state does not observe the principle of special priority for the development of the branch, which, first of all, should be supported by appropriate state support, commensurate with its volume and the possible achievement of the priority goals set for agriculture and the tasks to be solved.
