Abstract: At present, the Russian sector of the agro-industrial complex needs to be additionally invested in increasing efficiency, automation and modern technologies. However, the enthusiasm for innovative technologies has dragged on. The article analyzes the features of introduction and development of effective, digital technologies in the agriculture of Russia. A key problem of the Russian agro-industrial complex is low productivity and high costs. The key problem of Russian farmers is that at least some technologies become available only to large and medium-sized businesses. So far, not all farmers can use advanced solutions. However, digitalization tools will become cheaper, and clouds are called upon to make their use massive. In this regard, special interest is the study of intensification and optimization of agriculture through the introduction of new technologies at the present stage. The transformation of agriculture into digital requires such organizational changes that it is unclear how many years we will need to do this. Here the question is administrative, organizational, and it's just that you can not decide. The market of technologies in the agroindustrial complex for the completion of the formation stage requires financial institutions and sites for operational practical application. And most importantly - the creation of practice analysis and conclusions for decision-making. It is necessary to adjust to a long investment cycle: the creation, implementation, dissemination of technology. Requires the participation and support of certain institutions, venture capital industry, funds. Investments are needed in the creation of an intelligent system, because the solution of the problem, first of all, depends on the competences of people. The development of Russian agriculture has recently been paid close attention to the state, due to the need to ensure national economic security in general and food security in particular.
