Abstract

The purpose of this research is to identify the food security challenges to agriculture and the benefits of responding to these challenges in AgroTech. It has been carried out using the trend analysis method, correlation analysis method, and logical (qualitative) analysis method. It has been concluded that food security poses several serious challenges to agriculture, and the capabilities to respond to them in low-tech agribusiness are limited. The identified challenges include the loss of agricultural land; rural population decline; the need to increase the share of agriculture in the value-added structure of GDP; the need to increase the food production index; a decrease in the proportion of arable land. It has been substantiated that AgroTech provides a promising response to all these challenges, to which end author's recommendations are made. The contribution of the paper to the literature is that it has clarified the cause-and-effect relations of the provision of food security and identified the role and significance of agriculture in achieving it. The scientific and practical value of results obtained is that they have opened up a new wide field for future research on the provision of food security through the use of AgroTech.
