Abstract:

Аграрний сектор стикається з викликами не лише в глобальному масштабі, а й у плані протистояння цим викликам у власних моделях управління бізнесом з метою підвищення своєї конкурентоспроможності, стійкості та здатності до адаптації. У статті розглядається адаптація таких інноваційних моделей в аграрній галузі, де такі адаптивні парадигми передбачають інтеграцію передових технологій, оптимізацію ланцюжка створення вартості та сталі практики. Підкреслюється важливість стратегічного партнерства, інноваційних механізмів фінансування та розвитку людських ресурсів для створення сприятливого середовища для їх впровадження. На конкретних прикладах та експертному аналізі продемонстровано потенціал використання технологій, аналізу даних та інноваційних методів управління для подолання ринкової волатильності та екологічного тиску як засобу стимулювання економічного зростання та посилення продовольчої безпеки агробізнесу.

Description:

This research responds to the pressing call to identify creative solutions such as digital models, adoption of green practices, and use of analytical insights to support the sector. The agricultural sector is on the receiving end and faced with complex challenges of the global markets hence the need to have new business management models that address such aspects of competitiveness, flexibility, and robustness. The present paper analyses the introduction of such innovative models into the framework of agribusiness, with references to the adoption of such elements as advanced technologies, value chain efficiency, and sustainability. They include the establishment of strategic partnerships, the introduction of different forms of financing, and the building of human capital as key components of an environment conducive to the reception of these models. Whereas challenges include the changing needs of foreign markets and concerns linked with sustainable development, goals create pressure on the agricultural sector. Contemporary business management paradigms describe possible ways in which farmers can sustainably increase production, but the process of shifting towards these models is full of challenges. These include high fixed costs at the start of the investment, global market volatility to which it is heavily exposed, and intrinsic reluctance to organizational transformation. These challenges loom large in agricultural development, particularly given the sector’s roles as an anchor of economic growth, food security, and socio-economic development, all of which are being threatened by fluctuating market conditions, emerging technologies, and evolving climatic profiles. The sector has therefore needed more adaptable and creative approach management techniques to respond to these modern issues. Based on the above premise, the main purpose of this paper is to examine the possibilities of enhancing competitiveness and business sustainability in agribusiness by adopting new management practices. The study aims to explain the advantages of using innovative business models in agriculture and at the same time explain the limitations and reasons for resisting the attempts to adopt such models, especially among smallholder farmers. This study shows the effectiveness of various management models within the agricultural industry in terms of resource utilization and production effectiveness by implementing precision agriculture, GPS-operated machinery, and IoT sensors. Thus, these technologies enable tracking soil condition, moisture, and crop health to increase production and reduce losses. In addition, the direct interface of farmers to consumers through digital marketplaces eliminates relatively high cases of food wastage and affords enhanced transparency. However, the study also captures recurrent constraints regarding finance, data collection and analysis, and infrastructural features. Traditional culture and practices, bureaucracy, and social culture are other barriers to adopting innovative technology solutions, especially in rural farming. The study says the successful adoption of innovative business models in agriculture requires coordinated agency support from governmental agencies, active financial institutions' participation, and educational and training programs specifically targeted. Though these (innovative) business models constitute significant prospects for tackling global challenges and promoting sustainable development, significant initial costs, technological uncertainties, and entrenched cultural resistance constitute formidable barriers. Therefore, it is imperative to formulate supportive policies that facilitate access to financial capital, foster knowledge dissemination, and acknowledge cultural practices to optimize the benefits of early technological adoption. Addressing these challenges effectively could enable the agricultural sector to thrive under evolving market conditions, achieving sustained growth while mitigating the adverse impacts of market volatility and environmental challenges.
