The article presents indicators of the agricultural industry management system: doing business in a digital and technological transformation from the perspective of an ontological approach. It is important to note that it is impossible to transform under the requirements of the modern world without the introduction of innovation. However, innovation is always marked by financial costs and loss of time, which reduces the innovative activity of organizations in the agricultural sector, and, therefore, determines the diagnosis of innovation and investment policy.
The task of creating a single supranational payment market is to ensure its maximum independence, which correlates with the tasks of the competitive leading economic development of countries - the transition to a digital technological structure. To increase the efficiency of the generation of payment innovations with their subsequent diffusion into the agricultural sector, to strengthen the economy’s resistance to risks, a transfer of innovative institutional, organizational and informational forms of activity is necessary.
African agriculture is currently at a crossroads, at which persistent food shortages are compounded by threats from climate change. But, as this book argues, Africa can feed itself in a generation and help contribute to global food security. To achieve this Africa has to define agriculture as a force in economic growth by: advancing scientific and technological research; investing in infrastructure; fostering higher technical training; and creating regional markets.

L’information agricole est l’élément instrumentant le quotidien de l’agriculteur. Mais, les nombreuses politiques agricoles mises en place au Cameroun n’ont pas toujours facilitées la diffusion et l’accès à l’information agricole. Les agriculteurs ruraux n’ont accès qu’à une infime quantité d’informations sur l’agriculture, malgré l’énorme corpus de connaissances existant dans les instituts de recherche, les universités, les offices et les bibliothèques. Fort de cela, il serait judicieux dans la présente étude, de faire un examen des besoins en information des agriculteurs de la Menoua.
Theoretically, improved food security can be achieved through (a) increased availability – by extending staple food production area, higher productivity, good post harvesting practices; (b) enhanced access – as a result of more stable prices, improved farmer income, or even rural income; and (c) increased stability - through improved and sustained competitive advantage of the member firms, which eventually contribute to sustainable industry including in agriculture.
The level of developed countries in the conditions of global competition and open economy in terms of well-being and efficiency cannot be reached, unless the advanced development of the sectors of the economy that determine its specialization in the world economic system is ensured. This will make it possible to actualize national competitive advantages to their maximum.

El presente documento presenta un marco conceptual para los términos agricultura familiar e inclusión, hace una caracterización de la agricultura familiar y los problemas relativos a la exclusión en las áreas rurales, y analiza la institucionalidad creada para responder a estas situaciones. Finalmente, sugiere un conjunto de propuestas de lineamientos estratégicos para el fortalecimiento e inclusión de la agricultura familiar en las dinámicas del desarrollo de los territorios rurales, construidas participativamente en un taller interinstitucional.
