Digital agricultural economic system and electronic agricultural development intensification

Abstract

This article is about methodological and methodical questions of digital agriculture based on system and electronic intensification of expanded reproduction process. Industrial specifics of agriculture significantly affect the efficiency of the intensification process, its digitalization: Agriculture is a living organism depending on weather conditions, agricultural production is a creativity-intensive process. The goal of agriculture is to provide conditions for an expanded self-reproduction based on solution of 3 tasks: Reproduction of socially necessary products, rural populations, soil and nature environment. The unity of purpose of agriculture functioning (reproduction) and its forms (economic system), define the systems reproduction approach content. The authors examine the essence of basic economic categories: Reproduction (the goal of the economic system), the intensification (means of achieving a goal), efficiency (cost and speed of achieving a goal-ratio of goals and means). Intensification is connected with additional costs, providing a balance of production factors. Electronic (digital) economy is a form of computer-based management, quantitative justification of resources for the agriculture subsystems development. The purpose of intensification process digitalization is definition of management teams to improve the process of agriculture development management. Experience of organizational-economic work on digital agriculture economy formation and development is regarded applicable for selected crops and activities, the authors provides the experience of Belgorod region farms where digital technologies are successfully applied in agricultural, livestock, land reclamation, construction activities. There is a need to improve economic mechanisms (taxes, loans, grants) of corporations' transit to e-production. Currently there is a lot of research on the digitalization of a technology system. Research lie ahead to the rest of the systems of agricultural economy: social, environmental, economic, organizational.
