Ukraine's course for integration into the European community actualizes the processes of finding factors for increasing the innovativeness of the agricultural sector and sources of financing, based on the structure of the economy and financial capabilities. In the innovative process, the choice of a strategy for the development of the agricultural sector is crucial, thus it will be based on the priority development of activities with increasing returns and will generate sufficient cash flows for financing national science, start-ups, and innovative firms. The future prospects of the agricultural sector, its structure and competitiveness depend on the strategy of innovative development, the implementation of which is aimed at the development of activities with diminishing repercussions and, accordingly, the formation of the raw material structure of exports and insufficient financing, or a strategy whose priority is activities with increasing repercussions and the formation of sufficient incoming cash flows to finance the creation and implementation of world-class innovations. The state of financing of innovations by agricultural holdings was considered and it was noted that 80% of all investments in innovations in the agricultural industry were directed to accounting, document management, and solutions to combat theft. It is noted that the demand for national innovations on the part of agricultural producers is significantly decreasing. Funding of agricultural science based on the principle of forming a supply of innovative products has shown its inefficiency. The current strategy for the development of Ukraine's economy is analyzed through the prism of its innovative competitiveness in comparison with Denmark, a country with a high-tech agricultural sector. The proposed strategy of innovative development of the agrarian sector is based on the attraction of domestic and foreign investments in scientific developments and financing, first of all, in the processing industry, agricultural machinery and domestic start-ups. The demand for innovations from agricultural producers is formed and this demand is stimulated by the state. To implement the strategy and provide financial support for the innovative development of the agricultural sector, it is proposed to use tax incentives: preferential taxation of profits received from innovative activities, reduction of the tax base for the amount invested in innovations, their development and implementation. In order to generate demand for innovations, it is proposed to use state financial support for exporters of innovative products with high added value and to carry out priority financing of scientific developments in the field of IT technologies, the greening of agricultural production and processing of agricultural products, and the creation of ecological packaging and new storage technologies. The innovative activity becomes an integral and necessary element of the successful development of the agricultural sector, and the task of the state is to implement an effective financial and innovative policy in order to ensure its stable growth. Such a policy should be aimed at stimulating the export of innovative products and products with high-added value. Therefore, for the innovative development of the agricultural sector, the calculation of benefits for exporters of innovative products of the agrarian sector is proposed, which will therefore stimulate the demand for innovations and the export of products with a high added value.
