Abstract
მონოგრაფიაში გამოკვლეულია საქართველოს აგროსასურსათო სექტორში მწვანე ტრანსფორმაციის პოტენციალი მდგრადი განვითარების კონტექსტში. მოცემუ-ლია კვლევის თეორიული და მეთოდოლოგიური მიდგომები, გაანალიზებულია ორ-განული პროდუქტების წარმოების გლობალური და ევროპული ტენდენციები, შესწავ-ლილია ევროპული ქვეყნების წარმატებული პრაქტიკის მაგალითები.
კვლევა ეფუძნება ინტერდისციპლინარულ მიდგომას და მოიცავს ბიბლიომეტ-რიულ, შედარებით, სტატისტიკურ და ემპირიულ ანალიზს. აგროსასურსათო სექტორ-ში მწვანე ტრანსფორმაციის შესახებ არსებული სამეცნიერო ლიტერატურის სისტემუ-რი ანალიზი მოცემულია სამეცნიერო ბაზების (Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scho-lar, ResearchGate) საფუძველზე, გამოყენებულია ეროვნული და საერთაშორისო ორგანიზაციების ანგარიშები და მონაცემთა ბაზები. ჩატარებულია მომხმარებელთა და მწარმოებელთა რაოდენობრივი კვლევა, განხორციელებულია ორგანული პრო-დუქტების წარმოების პროგნოზირება თანამედროვე მეთოდების გამოყენებით, მათ შორის ხელოვნური ინტელექტის მოდელების იმიტაციით.
ძირითადი მიგნებები აჩვენებს, რომ საქართველოს აგროსასურსათო სექტორში მწვანე ტრანსფორმაციის განხორციელება ევროპული გამოცდილების ადაპტაციით არის შესაძლებელი, თუმცა, საჭიროა ინსტიტუციური ჩარჩოს გაძლიერება, საბაზრო სტიმულების შექმნა, მომხმარებელთა და მწარმოებელთა ინფორმირებულობის ამაღლება. მონოგრაფიაში შემოთავაზებულია საქართველოს აგროსასურსათო სექ-ტორის მწვანე ტრანსფორმაციის სტრატეგიული მოდელი, რომელიც უზრუნველ-ყოფს ეკოლოგიურ მდგრადობას, ეკონომიკურ ეფექტიანობას და ინსტიტუციურ თავ-სებადობას. წარმოდგენილია აგრარული სექტორის მწვანე ტრანსფორმაციის პრაქ-ტიკული რეკომენდაციები სახელმწიფო პოლიტიკისა და აგრობიზნესის განვითარე-ბისათვის.
