Today a special role in the social and economic development of the Russian Federation is played by the policy on import substitution announced by the leadership of the country, which has become a powerful stimulus for improving the national economy under the conditions of Western sanctions and the response from the Russian Federation. The formation of a full-fledged legislation in the innovation sphere and the creation of an effective system for stimulating innovative reproduction can be among the priority tasks of the state policy of the Russian Federation to strengthen innovative opportunities for the development of Russian agricultural regions. The authors note that innovative, including nanotechnological products, used in agricultural production, diagnostics and prevention of animal and plant diseases, primary and industrial processing of agricultural products become widespread in Russia. Thus, the problem of creating a competence center of import substitution of agricultural products as a tool for innovative development of the real sector of the economy is relevant at the present time. The article is devoted to the problem of solving the problem of import substitution in the agricultural sector at the municipal level. It is proposed to create a competence center for import substitution of agricultural products (the Center) in the Petushinsky district of the Vladimir region. The main tasks and functions of the Center are determined. Particular attention is paid to issues of stimulating innovation. In the conclusion of the study, the authors came to the understanding that the main problem on the way to creating competence centers in agriculture today is a lack of understanding of how to form and run a really working mechanism for updating and transferring new knowledge. System work is necessary: it is advisable to develop a concept for the establishment of the Center, provide conditions for the expert assessment of this concept to identify possible risks, determine the amount of required funding and identify sources of investment, appoint responsible executives for the implementation of the concept, approve the forms of preliminary, current and final control of project implementation and etc.
