Enhancing of farm innovation is one of the main prerequisites for stability and sustainable development of the agricultural sector, as it allows not only change the nature of productive activity, but also fill it with new meaning and practical content. The direction of future research is to study proposals on issues of organization and innovation management and innovative development of agricultural production.
