Agriculture has been considered as one of the priority countries’ sectors in our research; the share of agriculture in the GDP of the world leading countries was investigated. The theoretical and practical aspects of the development of non-waste agricultural production are described. The author substantiates the actuality and potential of the introduction of waste-free technology that brings advantages for the enterprises and for the state too. It is evaluated the assessment of international experience, which is the ability of agricultural waste to produce alternative energy sources. The theoretically available production potential of biogas and bioethanol from biomass of plant and animal origin has been calculated. The immediate prospect of energy autonomy of agro-industrial production should be based on efficient production and use of biomass. It will help Ukraine to lower dependence on import of energy carriers, will shut down its transformation to raw appendage, will enable to recycle inside a scale resource, having gained thus of hundred thousand of work stations, growth of incomes of citizens and state budget. Production of biofuel at the given stage of development of the state acts as one of the basic accelerants of new global trends in agribusiness industry of Ukraine which will promote its stable development.
