The transition to a circular agriculture model requires not only technical solutions but also intervention from a coherent policy framework. Policies on tax incentives, financial support for circular economy projects, and the establishment of green production standards play a decisive role in encouraging farmers and enterprises to participate. When circular agriculture becomes a “premium” in terms of quality, the economic value of agricultural products in the market will increase significantly. Analyzing institutional barriers and identifying participation drivers are urgent research directions for developing effective policies. Establishing a transition roadmap requires coordination among the government, scientists, and businesses in sharing both benefits and risks.
The success of the circular economy goes beyond immediate environmental benefits and contributes to long-term economic prosperity for rural communities. Incentive policies should focus on creating markets for agricultural by-products, enabling farmers to easily sell their secondary outputs. This not only generates additional income but also stimulates innovation in resource utilization. This is an inevitable pathway to achieving national sustainable development goals, where agricultural production not only provides safe food but also preserves ecological balance. Investment in these policy mechanisms will help build a solid foundation for future generations in a society that develops harmoniously with nature, ensuring food security and sustainable development (Suchkov et al., 2021).
