The article analyzes the effectiveness of the implementation of digitization projects in agricultural enterprises. The calculations take into account the uneven financial and investment opportunities of agricultural enterprises, which have provided for the differentiation of investment options depending on the funds available to the producer, as well as the actual land bank of the agricultural producer, which has affected the intensity of digitization tools.
The most attractive digitization tools for agricultural enterprises in terms of implementation efficiency have been identified, among which are allocated: autopilot and course index with its subsequent installation on agricultural machinery; the system of automatic shutdown of sections of a sprayer; the system of automatic shutdown of sections of a seeder; the system of liquid fertilizer application during sowing; differentiated method of fertilization; field condition monitoring (using drones, UAVs); alternative application of fertilizers and PPE (using drones).
Indicators of efficiency of realization of packages of investment projects at the land bank in 500 hectares and 5000 hectares for various options of investment (the sum of investments of 150-200 thousand UAH; 200-300 thousand UAH; 300-500 thousand UAH), and also indicators of efficiency of packages of investment projects connected with preparation and realization of production within five years of realization at the land bank of 5000 hectares for various investment options within the above amounts of investment are calculated.
The most attractive sets of investment projects in digitization tools have been presented, which can be chosen by agricultural enterprises, trying to maximize the level of NPV received within certain investment opportunities. It has been determined that having different amounts of initial investment, agricultural enterprises of different sizes (with a land bank of 500 ha or 5000 ha) have a fairly wide choice of options for investing in almost every monetary segment. The expediency of investing funds of agricultural enterprises in digitization tools has been proved, which confirms the general trend towards digitization of agricultural enterprises and has a solid economic basis.
