Abstract: Inthe face ofglobal challenges, innovative methods ofproduction and consumption are vital, and the bioeconomy signifies atransformational shift based onbiological processes, minimal energy use and full integration ofresources into ecosystems. This study focused onasectoral analysis ofbioeconomy opportunities with afocus onbioenergy and waste management inanagriculture sustainable approach. Literature-based analysis was used toapproach the research objectives ofthe roadmap design methods. Acomprehensive sectoral analysis ofthe bioeconomy was conducted with aspecial emphasis onbioenergy and food security. Aconditional roadmap ofbioeconomy implementation clusters was presented, which isinline with global trends. Agriculture, being an integral part of the bioeconomy, faces challenges due to ecosystem degradation, water scarcity, and poverty. The global trend of biotechnology adoption in agriculture offers benefits for sustainable bio-economic development, including soil conservation, cost reduction, job creation and improved food quality. Thus, the bioeconomy has significant potential to address global challenges and achieve sustainable development, which requires innovation, regional adaptation and a commitment to harmonise economic growth with environmental conservation. Further research into the involvement of the rural areas in the development of bioeconomy is required.
