The condition of rural municipal entities is some of their indicators of development of the region therefore the question of their sustainable development remains a necessary condition of welfare not only agrarian and industrial complex, but also the region. The current state of rural areas is characterized by the low level and quality of life; generally it is explained by inefficiency of economy of the region and insufficient development of infrastructure. The research of position of rural territories is a basis of ensuring support of development. The conclusion is drawn that in view of insufficiency of financing, selective support of the industries and regions is carried out.
The formation of a middle class in rural areas is the basis for the sustainable existence and development of rural areas. In developed countries, the middle class accounts for the majority of the population. At the same time in Russia at the moment there are regions in which agricultural workers receive wages less than the subsistence level. In order to establish the prerequisites that influence the formation of labour incomes in the population's agro sphere, the paper analyzes the state of five sectors of agricultural capital (social sphere, human capital, production resources, industry performance and financial condition) in 79 subjects of the country. The subjects involved in monitoring are grouped according to the level of profitability. The analysis revealed that the group with the lowest return uses 10‰ less potential sector potential compared to another group, which is higher in terms of profitability. Thus, the gap between the group with the lowest incomes (these are regions whose wages are less than the established level of the subsistence minimum) and the group with the maximum incomes (wages three times or more is higher than the subsistence minimum) is on average 30‰ five sectors. The maximum lag was identified by the sectors of human capital and the efficiency of the industry.
In article approaches to creation of effective international partnership of the state and business in the sphere of the agrarian market of EEU reveal. Models of strategic partnership of the state and business are offered. An assessment of efficiency of this strategic partnership and feature of its construction in the agrarian market of EEU is given.
Globalization of the world economy can result in losing the product identity. Therefore, many researchers focus on protection of regional products. Russia is not the exception where the Government takes specific measures in order to protect products identity. Recently, the Federal Law “On trademarks, service marks and names of product origin” was endorsed and amendments on introducing the notion “Geographical indication” were accepted by the State Duma. The Ministry of Agriculture of Russia designed the project draft on developing the regional products; the responsibility of regional Heads to find the original regional product in the corresponding areas. Otherwise, many complicated aspects and unsolved questions prevent the system to work efficiently. The European Union is experienced in protection of regional products as there is a system which guarantees quality, identity and origin of a product; the regulatory system supports producers, helps consumers to choose products of good quality system and influences regional development but keeps its individual features and attracts tourists. The paper explores the experience of the EU and Russia in protection of regional products. The authors highlight the advantages and disadvantages of the current system. They describe the ways to improve protection of regional products in Russia considering EU experience. The authors used such research methods as observation, comparative analysis, synthesis, classification, making parallels and generalization.
The research objective is to analyse possibilities of development of agriculture, including taking into account the resources provided by the state projects directed to the decision strategic problems of development of the country. The article deals with the problem of accelerating the growth of agricultural production and agro food exports in Russia. The dynamics of development of agriculture in Russia is analyzed in comparison with different countries. Presented for discussion government projects aimed to achieve the strategic objectives of the development of the country in the medium term are considered. The proposals are given including the assessment of the growth potential of agricultural production in Russia and the risks that may limit its development.
The methodological issues distribution of means of the budget to regions on subsidizing of agrarian economy arising during the forming and development of the mechanism of distribution without postulates of the budget legislation and the principles of strategic planning on efficiency and effectiveness of use of budgetary funds and resources are brought up. It is revealed that problems are connected with the choice of key criteria of distribution which basis shares of regions in production and economic results on agricultural industry are. It is proved and proved by analytical payment that prevalence of specific weight of the territorial subject of the Russian Federation in structure of any parameter doesn't testify to efficiency of economic activity and productive influence on it of the state support yet. On the basis of generalization of modern scientific research on this problem and model calculations with use of tools of the econometric analysis the conclusion is drawn that it is reasonable to regions to organize rational distribution of financial resources of the federal budget via the mechanism of an agreement of assignments with indicators of development of agricultural production and performance indicators where the most strong functional connection with the budget support of agricultural industry is diagnosed. It is reasoned that application of such approach will create conditions of increase in return from use of subsidies in agrarian production, will promote development of the most productive industries from the point of view of the agrarian capacity of regions.
The article reveals the issues of improving the food safety of the Russian Federation in the context of the role of the state and the participation of social entrepreneurship. The purpose of the article is to determine directions and measures to improve the sustainability of the food safety system of Russia in the interaction of the state and socially-oriented business based on the results of the study. On the example of Russian and foreign experiences, the issues of involvement of a socially oriented business in solving social problems both in general and in the agricultural sector in particular are considered. The positive aspects of the implementation of social entrepreneurship projects are identified and the expediency of their development is determined. A classification of social entrepreneurship is presented and a description of its characteristics is given. The directions for improving the sustainability of the food safety system of Russia through the creation of socially oriented business centres have been identified.
In modern conditions, the level of development of regional agriculture is insufficient. It is necessary to develop and implement measures aimed at improving the sustainable development of regional agriculture. The main purpose of the study is to analyze the effectiveness of agricultural organizations of the Penza region. In the article the peculiarities of the socio-economic development of the Penza region identified basic sector in the region, divided into six natural-economic zones. In agriculture and food industry of the Penza region it is possible to allocate following branches: manufacture of grain and products of its processing, manufacture of sugar and raw materials for processing, production and processing of milk, production and processing of meat. The analysis of the strategy of development of agriculture of the Penza region, allowed highlighting two of the strategic approach, and, as a result, two mechanisms of economic growth stimulation. The first approach is quite applicable in the conditions of incomplete use of available economic resources. The second approach should be applied in the case that, on the contrary, the production capacity is fully utilized. The "points of growth of agriculture" were chosen. The priority sectors of agribusiness development for the Penza region were identified for the perspective till 2030.
Financial stability of agro food system (AS) of the Russia region depends on productivity in plant growing, productivity of milk and meat production, prime cost of production of agricultural raw materials, producers and processors prices on manufactured agricultural products, population's demand for food and agricultural raw materials both within and outside region. Natural and lasting climate changes such as drought, prolonged downpours, spring floods, hhigh summer temperature may significantly reduce crop and livestock productivities. In relation to the changing climate, development of Russia region AS adaptation mechanisms is an up-to-date research area. Melioration is one of the ways of Russia region AS adaptation to climate change. Modelling of the maximization of annual profits in agricultural production taking into account use of reclaimed land allows making a significant restriction on the use of arable land in plant growing. Compiled model reflects the contribution of various crops to the annual profit estimate and the ways of extending this estimate. The model is formed as a linear programming problem. Computation is performed using the LPSOLVE Simplex Method program. The predicted annual profit on the found placement of crop cultures on land of the region was 16.78 billion roubles.
The article deals with the problems of effective management of the production potential of the agricultural sector in the Smolensk region. Studies have shown that the functioning of the production capacity is associated with a system of factors, of which socio-economic, organizational and legal are dominant. It is proposed to use the integral indicator of evaluation of reproduction of production potential, the conditions and factors of conducting extended reproduction and effective use of agricultural resource potential on an innovative basis with the use of econometric models. Positioning profitability as the main indicator of production efficiency, we have built an econometric model of the dependence of the level of profitability of products on the integral coefficient of reproduction of fixed assets in the agricultural sector. The growth of the integrated indicator of the level of reproduction of material and technical base per unit allows increasing the profitability of production by an average of 6.36‰. The dominant impact of the investment attractiveness of the industry, government support and innovative renewal of the material and technical base determine the vector of economic growth of the agro-industrial complex. We have developed and tested an economic and mathematical model for the development of the milk sub complex of the Smolensk region, which allows to determine the optimal ratio of industries and activities, to ensure a balance of the functioning of all subsystems of the milk sub complex of the regional agro-industrial complex and the maximum economic efficiency of the system, taking into account the natural and economic conditions of the region and technical and technological equipment. Systematic implementation of the proposed measures will create conditions for technical and technological renewal of the industry on an innovative basis and increase the efficiency of agricultural production by 30-40‰.
