INNOVATIVE MECHANISMS FOR STIMULATING ECONOMIC GROWTH ON THE EXAMPLE OF RURAL REGIONS OF THE USA

This study analyzes the key challenges and development prospects of US agricultural regions, which occupy more than 97% of the country's territory. It examines major challenges, including rural depopulation, economic stagnation, and limited access to modern technology. Special attention has been paid to effective mechanisms for solving these problems through digital transformation, educational initiatives, and cooperative movement development. The research demonstrates successful examples of public-private partnerships, where innovative approach implementation led to significant results: 15% yield increase in Iowa, 20% growth in farmers' income in Kansas, and a 30% reduction in operational costs in North Dakota. This material is valuable for specialists in agriculture and regional development.
