Abstract: The main objectives of the research were: a) to elucidate the conceptual essence and typology of innovation barriers; b) to assess the innovation barriers in the agri-food sector of the Republic of Moldova and, based on this, to identify directions for reducing their impact. In order to achieve the research objectives, the following methods were applied: bibliographic study, data grouping method, opinion survey, systematization, generalization, and deduction. As a result of the research, the main barriers hindering innovation in the agri-food sector of the Republic of Moldova were identified, and a comparative analysis was conducted between the perceived impact of these barriers by sector representatives and the impact deduced through their analysis based on the Oslo Manual. Consequently, recommendations were formulated to rationalize the innovation activities of enterprises in the agri-food sector, aimed at reducing the influence of innovation barriers.
