DIGITAL TOOL FOR TRACEABILITY OF AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS

Based on one of the basic principles of the digital transformation of the economy — the formation of an information management structure with the widespread integration of disparate data into a single system, the paper considers the possibility of creating a digital tool for the traceability of goods and products using the example of the agro-industrial complex along the entire production and logistics chain from the field to the table of the end consumer. Traceability is understood as a digital tool that makes it possible to reliably and within the required period of time to inform the partner, regulatory authorities, end consumer about the manufacturer, terms, quality, price and other characteristics of the goods. It is shown that such a digital tool is based on digital standards within a single digital production management platform obtained by mathematical modeling. It is shown that in the space of designing digital standards, data, algorithms for solving functional management problems and automation tools in the form of software are in complementary relationships with a strong synergistic effect. Thus, algorithms lead to an increase in the efficiency of using information, just as structured, increasingly integrated data improves the methods of their processing. Digital standards within the framework of a single digital production management platform are cloud subplatforms: collection and storage of operational primary accounting information of all enterprises in a single format, a single database of technological accounting and descriptions of algorithms for management tasks (knowledge base) that are common for all enterprises of a certain industry. The problems of the transition of the country’s economy to these digital standards and a digital tool for the traceability of goods and products are also considered.
