ABSTRACT
The first decades of the 21st century give enough reason to say that the factor of innovation will play a decisive role in all areas of socio-economic development. The growing importance of innovation in food security at the global and national levels is increasingly recognized. The competitiveness and overall efficiency of agro-industrial activities are directly related to the opportunities for innovative development. Realization of innovative potential at the national and regional levels to some extent depends on the characteristics of incentives. Innovative development in agro-industrial areas requires the study of financial incentives. In most countries, innovation is stimulated in the agro-industrial sectors, especially in agriculture.

This article discusses the relevant topical issues.
