The organizational-and-economic mechanism for reproduction of labor resources capable of mastering robotics in agriculture

Abstract

Russia's agriculture is experiencing a shortage of workers due to the negative demographic situation, the low attractiveness of the industry and the COVID pandemic, which poses risks to sustainable development. To reduce the personnel shortage, farmers use robotics, but its implementation is slow, due to poor skills of workers to interact with robots. The main goal of the study is to develop a model of the organizational-and-economic mechanism for formation of agricultural labor resources in the context of the use of cyber-physical systems, including robotics. A model of the organizational-and-economic mechanism has been developed, its main elements are: target; organizational-economic; motivational; personnel training and retraining. The goals for achieving the number of employees interacting with cyber-physical systems, in particular with robots, have been adjusted - up to 3% in 2023 and 8% in 2024. The total investments in robotization of the industry will be 3,863 million rubles, including 76.6 million rubles in employee training. The implementation of the elements of the organizational-and-economic mechanism will ensure the conditions for formation of labor resources in accordance with the state program on digitalization of agriculture. © 2023 Author(s).
