Discussion. The post-war period of development of rural areas will be carried out due to the activation of the entrepreneurial initiative of the population.

The formation of an environment for the development of entrepreneurship in the post-war period of the revival of the agrarian economy will require the development of a Strategy for the development of entrepreneurial initiatives of war veterans at the level of the state and administrative-territorial entities, which will involve the implementation of preferential taxation programs, grant support, etc. in the practical sphere.
