Аннотация The purpose of the article is to develop the innovational tools of provision of food security through state support for the agro-industrial complex (AIC) in the conditions of digital economy in modern Russia. For verification of the offered hypothesis and determination of connection between the level of national food security of modern Russia, state support for the AIC, and the use of the possibilities of digital economy, the article uses the method of correlation analysis. Also, the authors use the method of trend and horizontal statistical analysis, with the help of which the authors use the dynamics of change of the index of national food security in Russia in 2012–2017. The authors substantiate that state support for the AIC in modern Russia is not related to usage of existing possibilities of digital economy and does not fully ensure the national food security. The authors offer to supplement the traditional tools of financial support for national manufacturers of the AIC products with state subsidies, subsidized credits, etc., as well as innovational tools which is based on usage of the capabilities of digital economy. These tools allow achieving competitive advantages of domestic manufacturers of the AIC as to the quality and price. As compared to the traditional tools of state support, which belongs to the sphere of protectionism, the offered innovational tools do not limit the foreign competition and does not provide obvious preferences for domestic entrepreneurship. Instead, innovational tools increase competitiveness of domestic manufacturers of the AIC products, i.e., uses the market mechanism, leaving the choice to customers, hindering access to the market for dishonest entrepreneurs.
