THE MECHANISM OF DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION OF AGRICULTURE.

The article is devoted to the study of the construction of the mechanism of digital transformation of agriculture when building a management system for agro-industrial clusters. The new realities of socioeconomic relations at the international level and the level of individual states require involvement in digitalization trends. That makes it necessary to study the mechanism of digital transformation of the branches of the national economy, including agriculture. The use of new IT technologies contributes to the formation of competitive advantages and directions for the development of the industry. On the other hand, it acts as an incentive to activate and increase the efficiency of the management system by stimulating the introduction of achievements and trends in modern science and technology, which is especially important in the digitalization and digital transformation of agriculture. Accumulation, systematization, and generalization of traditional-historical and modern IT technologies and management system techniques is an element of integration and activation of network, cluster, and other innovative mechanisms in the modernization of the management system in the agro-industrial complex. The development of the agriculture digital transformation will allow to specify of the tools and methods of updating and building integrated management systems of system-forming innovative agroclusters will allow to generalize of the theoretical and methodological foundations, and develop recommendations for the formation of a management model of system-forming innovative agro-clusters using the concept of "triple helix" and modern digital technologies in the field of agro-industrial complex of Russia.
