ANTI-CRISIS POTENTIAL OF THE CIRCULAR ECONOMY FOR AGRICULTURE OF UKRAINE
Abstract
The relevance of the study lies in the need to transform Ukraine’s agricultural sector in line with sustainable development principles and global environmental challenges. Rising agricultural waste, soil degradation, and market instability highlight the importance of circular approaches to minimize waste, optimize resources, and enhance economic resilience. The article aims to justify the transition from a linear to a circular economy to strengthen crisis adaptability. Key research methods include analysis, synthesis, graphical, and bibliographic techniques. The results reveal waste dynamics, critical intervention points, and global best practices (e.g., biogas, composting). Circular innovations reduce environmental risks and boost profitability. The study’s practical value lies in justifying circular model benefits for Ukrainian agribusiness based on a comprehensive sector analysis.
