Increasing the knowledge intensity of the agricultural sector through the prism of investment support

Abstract

The influence of investments in fixed assets on the formation of gross value added of agriculture is studied. The relationship between the rate of investment accumulation and the knowledge intensity of the agricultural sector as aggregating indicators of innovation penetration is considered. There is a significant advance in the growth rate of capital equipment compared with the increase in labor productivity, which actualizes the task of improving the level of organization and quality of scientific support for the agricultural sector. Practice-oriented proposals are proposed to increase the knowledge intensity of the agricultural sector of the economy.
