Popularization of scientific and technological achievements, advanced experience and new knowledge in the agribusiness, especially in current conditions, can be considered as a mechanism that contributes to the receipt by agricultural producers of relevant, high-quality and reliable information on issues of interest and problems in the field of agriculture. The article presents the results of popularization of scientific resources using the database (DB) called "Users of scientific and engineering products in the agribusiness."The database is maintained to collect information about users by category of organizations, user distribution by federal district, and on the preference of issues of interest to them in subject areas in order to further improve the provision of scientific and engineering information for users in the area of technical and engineering education. The results of the database are used in proposals for adjusting the subjects in the preparation of analytical materials on the engineering and technological support of the crop and livestock product manufacture and processing.
