Abstract

This article develops a management strategy for Ukrainian agricultural enterprises based on circular economy principles. The study addresses the urgent need to restore resources, strengthen resilience, and align with the European Green Deal under martial law. It explores how agro-circular cycles can be integrated into enterprise management, which indicators best assess their efficiency, and what policy and organizational conditions enable large-scale adoption. The methodology combines analysis of Ukrainian and EU regulations and national statistics. Challenges include weak state support, war-related infrastructure damage, and low eco-innovation integration. Recommendations stress investments, biogas and biomass technologies, and institutional frameworks for sustainable recovery. The findings emphasize the importance of innovation as knowledge-driven eco-technologies that enhance efficiency and resilience. In this sense, the proposed actions contributes not only to sustainable growth but also to rural well-being, competitiveness, and long-term national security. These efforts will promote green economy principles, improve the well-being of rural populations, and boost social responsibility for energy recovery. Additionally, the state can play a crucial role in promoting green investments, fostering competitiveness among local green product producers, and encouraging a shift toward sustainable practices within the rural population.
