The article conducts a comprehensive study of the transformation of the organizational and economic mechanisms for managing the competitiveness potential of Ukrainian agricultural enterprises under conditions of full-scale war and global turbulence. The scientific inquiry is based on the Resource-Based View (RBV) and its modern interpretation, the Practice-Based View (PBV). The author substantiates that, under conditions of extreme uncertainty, strategic advantage shifts from mere asset ownership to management’s ability to dynamically reconfigure resources. The study details the structure of the management mechanism, including organizational, economic, resource, and regulatory-legal blocks. Special attention is paid to sectoral features: the biological nature of assets, seasonality, and the social significance of agribusiness. Empirical analysis confirms a deep structural adaptation of the industry: a transition is recorded from low-profit grain cultivation (wheat loss — $101/ha) to high-margin oilseed crops, particularly soybeans, whose actual EBITDA in 2023 reached $378/ha. It has been proven that the launch of the second stage of land reform in 2024 was a key factor in the sector’s capitalization. As of May 2025, the weighted average price per hectare reached an all-time high of 52,100 UAH, allowing enterprises to use land as high-liquid collateral to attract investment. Concurrently, a critical deficit in human capital (over 30%) has been identified, necessitating forced digitalization and the implementation of AgriTech technologies to mitigate the labor shortage. Strategic priorities for strengthening competitiveness are defined: deep processing of raw materials, bioenergy autonomy, and adaptation to EU environmental standards (ESG criteria). The study concludes that the effectiveness of the organizational and economic mechanism today is determined by the synergy of state support (programs such as “Affordable Loans 5-7-9%” and “eRobota”) and the innovative activity of enterprises. The results of the research have practical significance for the formation of post-war recovery strategies for the agro-industrial complex based on added value and European integration.
