Relevance. The introduction of digital technologies into the flax industry is an integral part of increasing production efficiency. Competently adapted new digital solutions are prerequisites for expanding opportunities and strengthening of the competitive position of both individual economic entities and the industry as a whole. One of the main reasons of limitation of the introduction of new, including digital, technologies in flax cultivation is a high proportion of physically worn out, with depreciation up to 100%, and obsolete equipment, which often leads to critical deviations in technological operations, from pre-sowing tillage to post-harvest works. This is reflected in the effectiveness not only of the individual operations carried out (poor-quality performance, lagging behind the deadlines, etc.), but also on the efficiency of flax cultivation and, ultimately, on the profitability of the flax-growing business itself. Considering that many farms still use equipment manufactured in the 1970s initially there is a question of widespread introduction of complex mechanized and automated technologies, and then the transition to the use of digital technologies and automated control systems. In this regard, the task of scientists is to create conditions for the introduction of innovative technologies and the development of agricultural services for the digital transformation of agricultural production. Methods. The work used a wide range of analytical methods used to study economic phenomena in the agro-industrial complex, in particular, in flax growing. Results. The main advantages of digital transformation of agricultural production processes in flax growing are considered, scientifically grounded developments of the Federal Scientific Center for Bast Crops and JSC Scientific Research Institute of Information Technologies in the field of information and analytical system of crop production management are proposed, a model for managing business processes based on digital transformation and state support for the introduction of digital technologies at all stages of the production process is proposed.
