Regional differences in the implementation of innovative projects in the enterprises of the agrarian sector

Ensuring the food security of the world, as well as individual countries and regions, requires a significant increase in agricultural productivity. This cannot be achieved without the introduction of innovations, which, in turn, require appropriate investment. The introduction of innovations should be considered primarily as the implementation of innovative projects in agricultural enterprises and regional and national projects – at the meso and macro levels. The purpose of the article is to identify and analyze regional differences in the implementation of innovative projects by agricultural enterprises of Ukraine. The current state and problems of implementation of the most important investment-and-innovation projects in the enterprises of the agricultural sector of the regions of Ukraine are determined and analyzed; regional differences in the distribution of the number of investment-and-innovation projects are revealed. The most common areas of implementation of these investment-and-innovation projects are identified, leaders in attracting investment are specified among the regions that have implemented projects in the agro-industrial complex, including Vinnytsia, Odessa, Kherson, Cherkasy, and Sumy regions. The analysis of the areas of implementation shows that most of the projects for 2016–2019 were implemented in livestock, the second position was occupied by projects related to processing, storage of grain and oilseeds, and the third place – by projects in pig breeding. The rating of regions of Ukraine by the average cost of investment and innovation project in the agricultural sector is built. The growth in the number of projects and the volume of investments indicates an improvement in investment attractiveness and positive expectations of agricultural enterprises and hence an increase in investment opportunities for the implementation of innovative projects.
