The study aimed to conduct an in-depth analysis of the principles of sustainable food production, identify key challenges and develop strategic recommendations for overcoming them in the global and regional contexts of Ukraine. The research methodology was based on a comprehensive interdisciplinary approach combining comparative, analytical and systemic methods for a complete assessment of the environmental, economic and social components of food systems in the context of contemporary global challenges, food sector development trends and the impact of technological transformations. An in-depth analysis of the theoretical foundations of sustainable food production was conducted, state and corporate strategies for food resource management were studied, and international initiatives, cooperation programmes and innovative technological solutions aimed at improving the efficiency and sustainability of agricultural and food systems were examined. The study established that effective strategic management contributes to the deep integration of environmental, social and economic factors into food production systems, ensuring the balanced development of the agricultural sector. A set of recommendations has been developed on adapting international experience to the conditions in Ukraine, particularly in the field of agrotechnology development, improving public administration mechanisms and training highly qualified personnel for the food sector. Successful cases from EU countries, the US and China were analysed, their effective models for implementing sustainable practices were identified, and the possibilities for application of the approaches in the domestic context were determined. At the same time, the study determined that imperfect institutional mechanisms, limited financial resources and insufficient coordination between public and private structures remain key barriers to sustainability. The practical value of the study is determined by the possible use of the results by specialists in the field of strategic management, public policy and agricultural development to improve the effectiveness of national food security programmes and achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals
