The work aims to study long-term trends in the quantitative and qualitative development of scientific and intellectual potential, as well as the development of measures to increase the competitiveness of national agriculture. The article discusses indicators of state regulation of scientific and technological development of the agro-industrial complex. Theoretical and methodological aspects of the concept of developing the scientific and intellectual potential of the agri-food complex based on the synthesis of a pool of theories: knowledge economics, theories of innovative development, theories of economic growth are developed in the article. Disproportions in the functioning of the scientific and intellectual potential and its structure are revealed by the results of the analysis. It is substantiated that the level of scientific support of agrarian science in Russia is characterized by a tendency to increase the share of costs per unit of result compared with international best practices. Measures are proposed to develop employee competency standards in the context of the structural transformation of the agricultural economy. The study formulated organizational, legal, economic, and social measures to stimulate the influence of scientific support of the agri-food complex on improving the efficiency of agricultural production in the context of the transition to an export-oriented model of the agricultural economy.
