Technology and equipment of agribusiness
Agribusiness represents one of the forms of agro-industrial complex, which includes not only the process of production of agricultural products, but also its processing, storage and transportation, production of machinery and equipment.
Agribusiness is an important element of the economic system of any country. Due to the efficiency of agricultural producers, the quality of life of the population depends on it. That is why it is so important to develop new technologies that allow to achieve maximum productivity of agro-industrial complexes.
The essence of agribusiness and agrarian policy
Agrarian policy is a complex of measures aimed at the dynamic development not only of agricultural production, but also of all entrepreneurial activities in the field of agribusiness. Priority areas of agrarian policy should be the improvement of material and technical support of large agro-industrial complexes and agricultural enterprises, social development of rural areas, the introduction of innovative development activities.
Agribusiness can determine the economic activity of an entrepreneur in the system of agro-industrial complexes, which is focused on the production and distribution of agricultural products. The core of this business is a single market. The purpose of agribusiness is to maximize revenues at the expense of full satisfaction of the demand for agricultural products.
In modern economic conditions, domestic agribusiness needs to be able to compete in a healthy domestic and foreign market.
Technologies, ideas and directions of innovations in agribusiness
Agribusiness is a sphere of activity in which the application of innovations does not happen at a fast pace, but in other spheres. This is due to a number of factors, in particular, the high level of risk of many innovative projects, as well as insufficient funding.
Moreover, new technologies are gradually being introduced into the activities of agro-industrial complexes. For example, recently a program was developed for the utilization of waste enterprises.
The program allows you to recycle such waste in feed additions. This allows to minimize the financial losses of enterprises specializing in the development of large horned cattle. Thanks to such innovations, agricultural producers get rid of the need to spend money on self-utilization of waste.
Innovative technologies in the field of agribusiness are processing the soil with minimal time costs. This turns out to be possible thanks to the use of new cultivators.
Agroengineering and technical systems of agribusiness
Agroengineering is a field of activity that includes such areas as hydraulics, thermal engineering, automation and many others. Specialists in this area use the latest achievements of science to create models of the latest agricultural machinery.
The main task of an agricultural engineer is the effective use of technological equipment in enterprises producing agricultural products.
The technical system of agribusiness includes in itself a multitude of elements, including the management of automated technological processes and installations, as well as the maintenance of documentation on the equipment used.
International and Russian modern agribusiness
International agribusiness is developing at a rapid pace, even in difficult economic conditions. Developed countries are actively introducing innovative technologies in agriculture, which allows to increase the volume of production.
The experience of foreign countries can be applied to domestic agribusiness. However, in order for agriculture to reach a new level of development, it is necessary to consolidate the forces of science and business, as well as powerful financial support from the state.
Agriculture of our country has become more and more attractive to potential investors. There were projects that deserve special attention. These include the cultivation of rapeseed, the production of biogas from poultry and some others.
Agribusiness Development Program until 2020
The agribusiness development program reflects the priority areas of state policy in the field of agriculture. This document consists of a number of sub-programs, the implementation of which takes place both at the federal, and at the regional level.
