Аннотация: Fundamental scientific and technical changes and discoveries that have taken place in recent decades, the actualization of global problems of our time have created the preconditions for the transition of the agro-industrial complex to a fundamentally new stage of development. The observed transformations are so rapid and large-scale that in the next decade they will radically change the appearance and conditions for the development of the world agro-industrial complex, the role of which is already not limited to the simple function of food production. The paradigm of the development of the global agro-industrial complex in the horizon of the next decade will be determined by the transition to a new technological order.
