Material and technical support of agricultural formations of the Republic of Kazakhstan: stimulation of innovation and investment processes

   Relevance - innovation and investment development of agro-industrial complex, based on modernization of technical equipment of the industry, introduction of digital technologies on the basis of investment inflow allows to increase labor productivity and produce competitive products.

   Aim - development of theoretical and methodological substantiation and practical recommendations on public investment of innovation activity in agriculture as a basis for improving the efficiency of the agrarian sector of Kazakhstan.

   Methods - system analysis of results to identify trends and effects, statistical - in the study of the obtained data, economic approach - to assess and forecast the results of economic activity, to determine its positive and negative directions and optimize production processes.

   The results - lack of modern agricultural machinery, insufficient level of rural infrastructure renovation and limited access to the market, low degree of replenishment of fixed assets of enterprises, wear and tear of machinery and equipment, lack of capital investment due to seasonal work and high risk for investors have become the main obstacles to sustainable growth of agro-industrial production. The authors consider the issues of rational construction of material and technical base, financing in the field of crop production and increase in gross output, confirmed by a strong positive relationship. The reasons preventing the realization of innovative activity of enterprises in many economic segments of the republic are outlined. Using the generalized official data on material and technical resources, the dynamics of depreciation and liquidation of fixed assets of agro-industrial complex is analyzed.

   Conclusions - the authors recommend increasing investment in the use of environmental and "green" technologies, implementation of training and consulting programs for farmers on advanced technologies and innovations, leasing financing, partnership with research institutes to share knowledge and experience. Joint research and experiments should become the main tools of state support for innovative and investment development of crop production.
