The article considers the logistics crisis as one of the most acute problems of the agricultural sector, which negatively affects the efficiency of its functioning, slows down development, reduces the quality and volume of agricultural products, and ultimately leads to a weakening of the competitive positions of domestic agricultural producers in the domestic and foreign markets. The key prerequisites for the emergence of the logistics crisis in Ukraine’s agricultural sector are identified, its characteristic features are analyzed, and the main consequences that pose significant risks and threats to the stable development of domestic agricultural production are highlighted. It is emphasized that the confirmation of the onset and long-term preservation of the logistics crisis in the agricultural sector of Ukraine is the low level of professional competence of logistics managers, systematic disruptions in the functioning of the transport and warehouse infrastructure, unevenness and instability of the supply of agricultural products to the market, a shortage of production capacities, a reduction in the volume of exports of agricultural products and an increase in the cost of logistics operations. Given the identified crisis logistics processes in the domestic agricultural sector, directions and tools for overcoming them have been identified with an emphasis on improving the professional competence of agricultural logisticians and managers, integration and coordination of supply chains, digitalization of agricultural logistics through the implementation of innovative IT solutions, modernization of transport and warehouse infrastructure, strengthening state support and quality strategic planning of post-war restoration of agricultural logistics. The considered scientific approaches have proven that overcoming the logistics crisis in the agricultural sector is impossible without a structured, targeted, and institutionally entrenched state policy, which includes not only financial and investment support, but also regulatory flexibility, interdepartmental coordination, and infrastructure restoration.

Keywords: agricultural sector, logistics crisis, logistics, state policy, agricultural products, logistics processes, agricultural production.
