AGRO INDUSTRIAL CLUSTERS AS A FORM OF INNOVATIVE DEVELOPMENT IN THE INDUSTRY

Abstract

The article begins by defining agro-industrial clusters as geographically proximate groups of interconnected firms and institutions in the agriculture and food processing sectors. It examines how these clusters facilitate knowledge sharing, technology transfer, and resource pooling among participants, leading to enhanced productivity, competitiveness, and market access. Moreover, the article discusses the role of supportive policies, infrastructure, and institutions in nurturing and sustaining agro-industrial clusters. Furthermore, the article analyzes the impact of agro-industrial clusters on local and regional development, including job creation, income generation, and rural revitalization. It explores the linkages between agro-industrial clusters and broader innovation ecosystems, highlighting their contribution to research and development, entrepreneurship, and value chain integration. Additionally, the article discusses challenges and opportunities associated with building and scaling agro-industrial clusters, such as financing, governance, and stakeholder coordination.
