Abstract: Pandemic made us look differently at the globalization of world economy and significance of independence of national states in the provision of population with vital goods. Measures taken for the protection from the spread of coronavirus led to the break of the chains of agricultural production and food promotion between the countries. In these conditions, the significance of independence in food provision increases. At present time the agro food policy of Russia is directed to the achievement of food self-production of the country. However, food self-production of the country is not identical to the food independence. Level of the self-production reflects the actual demand in agricultural production, raw materials and food, taking into account personal consumption according to the norms of rational nutrition. Independence achievement in the food provision predetermines the choice of optimal solutions in issues of import and export in conditions of economic and food crises. Russia hasn’t managed to carry out total import substitution in food provision; however, the dependency on the food import has decreased significance. Besides, it’s necessary to increase not the grain export but the products of its processing. In conditions of economic crises, the significance of population’s economy contributions in the forming of food resource increases. Self-provision with food will allow decreasing of negative influence of the decrease of economical availability of the food.
