Abstract: The conducted research is devoted to an urgent topic related to state support for import-dependent sub-sectors of the agricultural sector of the country's economy. It is noted that in conditions of risks and uncertainties associated with the sanctions of unfriendly states, the provision of domestic agricultural producers with means of production remains at an unacceptably low level. The influence of various measures of state support on the development of import-dependent sub-sectors of the agricultural sector of the economy is shown and its main forms are determined: direct, indirect, indirect. The multidimensional content of state support made it possible to consider the totality of elements of its impact on agricultural science – import substitution of high-tech means of production (breeding, seed, planting material, plant and animal protection products, tractors and agricultural machinery), food and economic security of the country. The basic principles of assessing state support for import-dependent sectors of the agricultural sector are given, based on the effect-cost ratio, when the accumulated benefit exceeds the total cost of their implementation. Special measures of state support for such import-dependent branches of the agro-industrial complex as the provision of agricultural production and processing industry with technical means and technological equipment, seed and breeding material, chemical plant and animal protection products are given. In a situation of high uncertainty, the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation has taken a number of operational measures to provide the domestic market with agricultural machinery, breeding and genetic material, and chemical plant protection products. Mechanisms and tools to ensure technological sovereignty in import-dependent sub-sectors of the agricultural sector are proposed, which can be used in the national project of technological sovereignty in the field of food security within the framework of the April 2024 instructions of the President of the country to the Cabinet of Ministers.
