The issues of digitalization of modern agriculture are associated with the presence of problems of theoretical and practical nature of such digitalization. At the same time, most of the problems are related to the modernization of the existing information systems of the Ministry of Agriculture of Russia, which were developed and implemented decades ago and no longer meet many modern requirements. In the article, the author examines the problems of modernization of the existing information systems of the Ministry of Agriculture of Russia and concludes that at present the issues of modernization of the existing information systems of the Ministry of Agriculture of Russia are very relevant, taking into account the increase in funding announced at the state level for the modernization of such information systems and the existing problems of the development of such systems, which consist, among other things, in the lack of integration of systems between by itself, which creates significant problems for system users. Integration of the existing information systems of the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation within the framework of modernization of such systems, on the one hand, will simplify many operations and make the processes of data exchange and decision-making more efficient and high-quality. On the other hand, the modernization process is also associated with a number of problems, the most important of which is the problem of ensuring a high-quality and efficient process of data migration from disparate information systems with old interfaces to new integrated systems. To minimize possible problems with data migration, it is possible to develop a so-called multiphase architectural roadmap, where it is necessary to determine exactly how the data migration process will be carried out and how the end users of the information systems of the Ministry of Agriculture of Russia will make the transition to already upgraded systems.
