Entropic Development of Ukraine’s Agricultural Trade Logistics System: Digital Transformation, Artificial Intelligence, and Adaptive Resilience

Анотація

This article examines the theoretical and practical aspects of entropy-oriented development of the agricultural trade logistics system in Ukraine in the context of an unpredictable external environment. The relevance of the study stems from the growing level of uncertainty, heightened geopolitical risks, infrastructure constraints and large-scale global economic transformations, which directly affect the efficiency of the agricultural sector and supply chain logistics. In particular, the constant instability of international trade routes, climate variability and the consequences of military actions significantly complicate the functioning of logistics systems and require fundamentally new approaches to management. The aim of the study is to substantiate the impact of entropic processes on the agricultural trade logistics system and to identify key directions for its adaptive transformation under current conditions. The methodological framework is based on a systems approach, which allows the logistics system to be viewed as a complex dynamic structure, as well as on economic and mathematical modelling, analysis and synthesis, and statistical and comparative methods. The results obtained indicate that the agricultural trade logistics system in Ukraine operates under conditions of increased entropy, manifested in the destabilisation of commodity flows, rising costs, the transformation of transport routes and an increase in logistical risks. Particular attention is paid to the system’s adaptive capacity, which is expressed in the expansion of multimodal transport solutions and the diversification of export destinations. The study justifies the feasibility of implementing anti-entropy mechanisms, in particular market diversification, the development of multimodal transport, infrastructure modernisation, and the introduction of digital technologies, notably artificial intelligence. The scientific novelty lies in the development of a conceptual model of the entropic development of the logistics system, taking into account transcendental influencing factors. The practical significance of the results lies in their applicability to the development of effective agri-logistics management strategies, enhancing the resilience of logistics processes, and strengthening Ukraine’s competitive position in the global agricultural market.
