In recent years, the transition to the digital economy (platform, gig-economy, it-economy) has been actively developing all over the world. The paper focuses on the effectiveness of digitalization, shows the contribution of the digital economy to the GDP, and reviews changes in the production sector aimed at industry digitalization. The digital transformation is one of the main factors of global economic growth. Developing digital economy in the Russia will increase its GDP by a third by 2025. The digitalization of agriculture will increase production, improve the quality and safety of food products. Blockchain technology can track the entire history of each product, and smart contracts simplify access to international markets for small and medium-sized agricultural producers. Due to the absence (maximum reduction) of the number of intermediaries, consumer prices for products decrease, and the price of producers, on the contrary, increase. By 2024, it is planned to increase productivity growth by two times in the “digital” agricultural enterprises. This will be achieved due to lower production costs, higher yields, increased gross margins, market expansions, attracting highly qualified specialists and investors to the agricultural sector. As a result, a significant multiplier effect is expected in other areas, which improves the county’s economic performance y as a whole.
