Abstract: Given the significant production and export potential of the crop sector in Ukraine, it is important to develop an effective national seed production system. Providing agricultural producers with seeds of national selection is one of the main factors of food security in the country. The development of an effective seed production system provides for the creation of appropriate conditions for increasing seed production and popularising national varieties and hybrids that have a significant yield potential and high-quality indicators for their wider use, which will ensure the competitive advantages of agricultural production and its development. The purpose of the study is to identify trends and outline development prospects for the seed industry of Ukraine. In the course of the study, the dialectical method, analysis and synthesis, system generalisation (establishing trends in the development of the Ukrainian seed industry; forming conclusions), and comparative analysis (determining the main problems of seed production development in Ukraine) were applied. Trends in the development of the seed industry in Ukraine are established. The main problems of seed production development are identified and measures to stimulate selection activities in Ukraine are proposed. Prospects for the development of Ukrainian seed production are outlined. Conclusions, suggestions, and practical recommendations can be used in the development of national programmes to support seed production in Ukraine
