Abstract: The processes influenced agro food trade over the last 3 years are examined; the attempt to see how it’d influenced the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) is given. The main trends of the analyzed period have been put in August, 2014 when Russia has imposed a ban on import of food and agricultural products from a number of the countries. The conclusion is drawn that the market of EEU in the field of agricultural trade becomes more important for Russia, but it occurs gradually. Russia turns into the country importing generally seasonal and exotic goods (fruit, vegetables, coffee and tea). The dependence on import of meat and milk which were designated as the main problem of food security of the country gradually decreases. The main obstacle for the common market of the countries of EEU is lack of a single external tariff and the general space on safety of foodstuff and health protection of farm animals and plants. Also a correction of mechanisms of regulation of external and internal relations, the formation of the general agrarian budget of EEU is required.
