Foreign economic sanctions pressure in combination with the requirements of the world trade organization cause low efficiency of the system of state support of agricultural producers in the conditions of our country. The use of a Bank loan as the main source of financing for the activities of economic entities leads to a deterioration of the financial situation and insolvency of agricultural organizations. In this regard, the optimal distribution of efforts between rural producers and the state in the process of solving socially and economically important problems in the agricultural sector, achieved on the terms of public-private partnership, is currently a promising direction of stabilizing the financial condition of agricultural organizations. As a result of the analysis of the financial condition carried out in the conditions of the leading producer of Turkey meat, we have revealed that the main reason that caused the critical financial situation, insolvency and low economic efficiency of this economic entity is an unsatisfactory capital structure in the form of domination of liabilities on Bank loans. The article attempts to justify the increase in the share of own sources of financing in the total capital of organizations-producers of Turkey meat by raising funds from the regional budget on the principles of equity participation on the terms of public-private partnership. The article will be useful in the development of measures for the financial recovery of agricultural organizations.
Rates of dairy cattle development and production increases remain lower than those determined by the Doctrine of Food Security. Despite the stated priority of industry government support, significant increase in its volumes, its main recipients are large regional and federal agro-holdings implementing large-scale investment projects. However, a study of dairy cattle development in regions that are industry leaders in terms of milk production intensification confirms the hypothesis of high efficiency of evolutionary technological development in medium-sized enterprises in milk production. The aim of the study is to evaluate options for intensification and modernization of milk production in North-West regions of Russia, which provide cost reduction and possibility of sustainable expanded reproduction. Practical significance of the study is to justify proposals for the agro-industrial complex management at the federal and regional levels to adjust system of state support for investment process in dairy farming. Transition from competitive distribution of preferential investment loans to allocation of limits by enterprises and regions, taking into account the volume of sold milk and rate of increasing its production, will increase rate and sustainability of dairy farming development.
The study is aimed at solving the most important socio-economic problem-the preservation and promotion of health of low-income family members. The relevance of the study is predetermined by the General trend of reducing the average disposable income of residents of the city of St. Petersburg, the growth of the price index for milk and a number of dairy products, the reduction of milk consumption per capita, which is most acutely reflected in the socially vulnerable segments of the population. The aim of the study is to assess the factors that limit or contribute to an increase in the consumption of milk and dairy products by low-income categories of citizens living in a large metropolis. The study is based on the analysis of trends in income of the population of the city by decile groups, consumer price indices in the food market of St. Petersburg, the structure of consumer spending of families. It is revealed that since 2016 the growth rate of per capita income of the population and the average size of accrued pensions lag behind the index of consumer prices for milk and dairy products. On the basis of comparison of the index of consumer prices for milk and dairy products with the growth rate of cash incomes of the population by decile groups, it is shown how consumer preferences of citizens vary. The results of the questionnaire survey of St. Petersburg residents, reflecting their motivational attitudes to the growth of consumption of milk and dairy products of the city, as well as limiting its causes, are summarized. Measures to solve the problem of under consumption of milk and dairy products in the megalopolis are considered.
The Doctrine for assessing the state of food security defines thresholds for a number of products. For vegetable oil, this figure should be at least 80 ‰. As of 2017, security was 94 ‰. At the same time, the consumption of vegetable oil per capita (about 8 kg) remains at the level of 1990, which is 2.5-3 times lower than per capita consumption in the EU and the United States. In the Siberian Federal district, including in the Krasnoyarsk region, the production of oilseeds is growing rapidly. Therefore, the question of studying the characteristics and evaluation of the efficiency of production of oilseeds in the region, taking into account its location and specialization in agricultural organizations in natural and climatic zones and areas is relevant. On the basis of the developed economic and statistical models, a direct relationship between yield and profitability of oil crops production has been revealed. Thus, with the growth of yields from 5 to 95 c/ha, profitability will increase from 21.6 to 62.7‰.
Rural development is one of the main objectives of the State policy of the country. However, development is uneven and there is a difference in the resource availability of different territories, which makes it difficult to manage and ensure sustainable development of both the individual municipality and the region as a whole. The article presents the results of research of the level of sustainable development of rural areas of Rostov region. The dependence of the socio-economic development of the Territory on the degree of infrastructure development has been revealed. The complex development of the Territory should be based not only on the analysis of social indicators, but also on the geography of the municipality, its infrastructure content and budgetary security.
Currently, the agri-food market of Russia is becoming part of a qualitatively new Eurasian agri-food system. The format of the concept of this system provides for a coordinated agro-industrial policy, however, serious imbalances in the effectiveness of regulation of the common agricultural market are being made by conflicting obligations of the EAEU member countries to the WTO. The formation and functioning of the Eurasian Economic Union today creates the most serious risks for the agro-food sector of the Russian economy, connected with different positioning of the RTS member countries in the WTO, their different tariff obligations to this institution.
The state contract system carries out the process of exchange between producers and consumers of goods within the framework of meeting the state needs for them. At the same time, state procurement is the fact of implementation of the state order. In other words, public procurement completes the state order process and is its final stage. Public procurement is a factor determining aggregate demand, affecting the growth rate of the economy, employment, inflation and a number of other macroeconomic processes and phenomena. Calculating the dynamics and volume of public procurement, we can talk about the state and level of economic development in a country. But with an unreasonable increase or decrease in the volume of public procurement, the economy may lose a stable equilibrium state. At the moment, representatives of small and medium-sized agribusiness cannot participate in the public procurement system for agriculture. All of the above and determined the theme of the study. Within the framework of this work, a mechanism has been developed to activate the export potential of the region's economy by transferring export-import operations to the plane of the Institute of public procurement, which stimulates the development of small and medium-sized businesses in agriculture.
Each constituent entity of the Russian Federation contributes to ensuring the country's food security by actively participating in foreign economic activity on the export and import of agricultural products. This is especially true with the implementation of a modern policy of import substitution and ongoing measures in support of domestic agricultural producers. In the framework of this work, the authors analyzed the volume of agricultural production in the Russian Federation for 2014-2018. The dynamics of the volume of imports and exports of Russia for 2016-2018 is considered. A separate example of the republic of Bashkortostan presents foreign economic activity for the current year with the allocation of the share of imports and exports by CIS countries and foreign countries. The work also identifies priority areas for the development of agribusiness sectors in the republic for 2020.
Currently, the agro-industrial complex of the Kurgan region is one of the socio-economically significant sectors of the economy, as it creates the basis for the formation of the agro-food market, as well as the conditions for ensuring food and economic security of the region. It occupies about 17‰ of the gross regional product, almost 39‰ of the population lives in the village. The aim of the study is to analyze the problems of increasing the investment attractiveness of agriculture in this region. The necessity of evaluating the most promising areas of investment is substantiated. The circle of measures aimed at increasing the investment attractiveness of agriculture in the Kurgan region is outlined. The basic activities should be: in crop production - the cultivation of cereals and legumes, as well as oilseeds; in livestock - the development of pig and poultry; in food and processing industry - grain processing, production of meat and dairy products. Such an approach will ensure the creation of additional jobs, an increase in the level of wages, an influx of workers in this area, and as a result, an increase in the economic security of the region.
The aim of the study is to assess the role of small forms of economic management in providing food to the population of the region. With the imposition of economic sanctions and the cessation of the flow of purchased agricultural products, there is a great need to produce undelivered goods. The further process of building a multi-dimensional rural economy is characterized by a combination of small forms of economic management with large ones. The process of supporting small economic entities involved socio-economic measures that could encourage small economic entities to intensify productive activities. The process of introducing innovative changes in the large segment of small farms becomes relevant. The economic jump in farms and private farms will lead to healthy competition, improved quality of agricultural products, diversity of the consumer basket and entry into the international market.
