The article examines how digitalization influences the formation of production potential in agricultural enterprises. The study aims to analyze, systematize, and summarize the existing theoretical and methodological foundations for shaping the production potential of farming enterprises, and to explore the impact of digital challenges on their structural transformations. The article examines theoretical and methodological approaches in the literature on the essence of agricultural enterprises’ production potential in the context of digital transformation. Approaches of leading scholars to interpreting the concept of “production potential” are systematized. The author’s definition of production potential is substantiated as a complex structure that encompasses material and technical resources, land, labor, technological resources, informational resources, and managerial competencies, which determine the boundaries for transforming natural and production factors into competitive output. The quantitative and qualitative components of production potential and their transformation under the influence of digitalization are analyzed. Quantitative components include material, technical, and financial resources. Qualitative components reflect the level of production organization and resource-use efficiency, including organizational capacity, technological efficiency, the enterprise’s innovative capability, and human resources. It is revealed that digital technologies (precision agriculture, IoT solutions, telematics, AI analytics, digital management platforms, and others) shape a new configuration of production capabilities in agricultural enterprises by increasing productivity, optimizing costs, and improving planning and logistics systems. The study of digital tools has identified significant improvements in the efficiency of land, technical, and financial resource use, as well as the acceleration of innovation processes and the formation of new employee competencies. Thus, digital transformation strengthens the interrelation between qualitative and quantitative elements of production potential, reshaping managerial decision-making mechanisms, production process structures, operational technological sophistication, and workforce requirements. In modern economic conditions, digitalization acts as a catalyst for enhancing the competitiveness of agricultural enterprises and creates prerequisites for their sustainable development.

Keywords: production potential, agricultural enterprise, agribusiness, digitalization, digital technologies, digital challenges.
