The article discusses innovation as crucial for Ukraine's agricultural sector's post-war development, emphasizing its importance due to economic risks from the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. It presents the innovation process as key to boosting the sector's competitiveness, exploring investment and innovation theoretical aspects. The paper notes the scarcity of research on post-war agricultural innovation, especially its role in sector recovery and modernization. Utilizing various economic research methods, it analyzes statistical data on agriculture and agri-food exports, drawing on open sources and official websites for information. The study examines employment dynamics, labor productivity, and other macroeconomic agricultural indicators, addressing the significant impact of the 2022 war on the sector. It highlights Ukraine's position in the global innovation index, identifying strengths and weaknesses in innovation. The importance of digitalization and the green economy in agriculture is underscored, concluding with the critical role of innovation for the sector's future. Future research directions are suggested, focusing on improving innovation support through infrastructure development, scientific personnel training, favorable business conditions, and investment attraction. The article advocates for developing an effective post-war innovation strategy for Ukraine's agricultural sector, incorporating green economy and digitalization, marking it as a scientific priority. Thus, developing an effective strategy for post-war innovative development of Ukraine's agricultural sector, reflecting current scientific research, including the implementation of the green economy, digitalization of the country's agricultural sector, etc., is a priority on the agenda for scientists
