Annotation: The article describes the problem of production and consumption waste getting into the environment, which deteriorate its quality significantly. This task is multifaceted, and its solution requires systematic approach. Analysis of the waste accumulation process indicates their significant quantitative growth and the necessity to take more effective actions for their disposal. Certain opportunities for solving the issues under consideration are provided by “green” technologies and cyclical economic models, which have been introduced into practice by a number of countries and have already largely revealed the hidden potential of these resources. In order to revise the approaches to this problem, it is necessary to change its very vision and consider it from the point of view of secondary production resources, on the basis of which new efficient productions can be created. Particular attention in the work is paid to the waste related to the agricultural sector (AS). The article presents the most promising areas for secondary resources recycling. Conclusions are made about the need for a radical change in views on the production of consumer goods (using the example of the AS) and the creation of an industry infrastructure for the rapid exchange and trade in secondary raw materials.
