The materials presented in the article describe the solution to the problem of early culling of brood males, preserving their reproductive health, reproductive ability and the quality of the resulting sperm products through the use of a liquid water-soluble feed additive of complex action "Reasil Humic Vet", consisting of a concentrated solution of high molecular weight sodium salts of humic acids from leonardite. An assessment of the reaction of male-breeders of meat cross to the transfer from floor to cage keeping was carried out. The experiments were carried out in the veterinary clinic of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Food and Biotechnology of the Federal State Budgetary Educational Institution of Higher Education of the Saratov State Agrarian University in the period 2020-2021. In the experiment, roosters of the POCC 308 breed were used. Drinking with water a liquid water-soluble feed additive of complex action "Reasil Humic Vet" neutralizes the negative stress effect on the organism of the males. The variability and level of biochemical parameters of blood plasma in males of the 1st control group were significantly higher for the content of triglycerides and cholesterol, which characterize fat metabolism. The criterion for selecting males for the experiment was the primary reaction to massage by the method of Burrows W. A., Quinn J. P. To assess the volume of ejaculates obtained and determine the indicator of sperm activity, the selected livestock was divided into two groups: group 1 (n = 5) - control; Group 2 (n = 5), the subject received "Reasil Humic Vet" with water. The studied livestock had an ejaculate volume of 0.1 ml to 1.1 ml. The indicator of sperm activity in the 1st group at the first assessment ranged from 5.9 to 8.7 points. The increase in sperm activity in the second group occurred on day 20 and the next day of the experiment after transfer to individual cells and showed a stable result from 8.5 to 9.5 points. As a result of the experiment on the study of the quality indicators of sperm in the 2nd experimental group of males, high indicators of Cv variability were obtained from 32.0% to 54.0%.

The development of an inflammatory process in the liver tissue and bile ducts in cats is a frequent and severe pathology that requires early diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. It is shown that the diagnostic approach for feline cholangiohepatitis should be comprehensive and based on a thorough analysis of anamnestic data, the results of physical examination and additional methods of instrumental and laboratory diagnostics. It is important in the diagnosis of cholangiohepatitis in cats to conduct visual diagnostic methods, in particular ultrasonography. It is established that the method of ultrasonographic diagnostics is of high value in the verification of acute cholangiohepatitis in domestic cats. Hepatomegaly was detected in 23.5% of sick cats, the severity of this sign positively correlated with the severity of the course of cholangiohepatitis. Microhepathy in patients with feline cholangiohepatitis was observed with a frequency of 5.9%, hyperechogenicity of the liver – 17.6%, hypoechogenicity of the liver – 7.8%, dilatation of the bile ducts – 23.5%, thickening of the gallbladder wall – 9.8%, pathological echogenicity of the gallbladder wall – 3.9%, echogenic debris in the gallbladder cavity – 32.4%, change in the echogenicity of the pancreas - 31.4%, increase in the size of the pancreas – 15.7%, thickening of the duodenal wall – 11.8%, pathological layering of the duodenal wall – 7.8%, hyperechogenicity of parapancreatic fat – 5.9%, peritoneal effusion – 5.9%.

Advances in the digital world and the digitization of various business processes have contributed to the improvement of business models that will transform all sectors of the economy in the future and ensure their high competitiveness. Therefore, it is important to know the nature and conditions of application of innovative business models, as well as competitive advantages. Innovation is the basis of high competitiveness of any enterprise. This concept is not always equal to the material product, any management project can become an innovation. The second definition of innovation is a set of processes that affect the entire functioning of the company, which lead to the implementation of new and modified products, technologies, proposals and a number of management decisions. Innovative business models are used in many modern organizations. Many well-known companies have implemented innovative business models. For example, McDonald's, Amazon, IKEA, eBay, Starbucks, Wal-Mart. And we used these models to form an innovative approach to the supply of products already available on the market. In today's digital world, innovative business models are becoming one of the most relevant methods of doing business and are attracting more and more attention. Because the business model of any company is the main tool on the way to creating value for consumers. In a world of fierce competition, companies must form business models that are not just a way of doing business. Innovation is a major success factor for competing organizations.
APPLYING MACHINE LEARNING METHODS TO ANALYZE PRICING IN AN ONLINE STORE

Published: January 2022

In the last decade, e-commerce has become an integral part of the modern world. Every year there are more and more online stores, however, the activity of not every online store becomes successful. Obviously, this is due to many different factors that directly affect the attractiveness of an online store for a potential buyer. At a time when traditional methods of sales analysis became inefficient and unnecessarily time-consuming, specialists began to use machine learning in order to get the most accurate sales forecasts, and therefore be more flexible and prepared for various conditions. As before, in most cases, the determining condition for the purchase of goods for the buyer of an online store is its price. Specialized machine learning models allow you to evaluate all the available sales data and, based on them, determine which features of the product most form the demand for it, and accordingly, based on the information obtained, set the optimal price. However, due to the specific features of different online stores, it is impossible to create a single model that would work qualitatively for each, since machine learning models are built based on specific data that is unique for each online store. It can be noted that the interpretation of the data on the basis of which the research is carried out and their applicability to the task set by the researcher is one of the most important components of machine learning. That is why about 80% of the time of research in the field of machine learning is allocated to the selection and preparation of data for analysis. The solution to the problem of data selection may differ depending on the specifics of the study. This paper presents a solution to the problem of constructing a regression model. The purpose of the study is to build a trained model with an algorithm that would automatically determine the most suitable price for an online store product, based solely on its specific characteristics and information about this product.

The purpose of this study is to study the experience of the most effective American and European systems of accreditation of organizations in the field of certification of organic products and highlight their shortcomings and advantages. The authors have studied many international and national regulations and standards in the field of certification of organic products. The official websites of foreign organizations that have the authority to conduct accreditation of organizations that will later be engaged in the certification of organic products, as well as scientific articles by leading scientists in this field, were used. The article discusses the main problems faced by Russian producers of organic products with the entry into force of the Federal Law on Organic Production in the Russian Federation. It is revealed that the key risk in its implementation is the insufficient development of the accreditation system of Russian certification companies, which causes problems with the certification of domestic producers according to the organic standard. The second problem of the development of the organic market in the Russian Federation is the inconsistency of Russian and international standards. The situation is aggravated by the lack of experts on organic products and a number of difficulties in their training and certification. The article analyzes the activities of the unified German accreditation system Deutsche Akkreditierungsstelle GmbH, examines the work of the Argentine accreditation body ARGENCERT, and examines the features of the functioning of the North American accreditation body National Organic Program. Their comparative analysis is carried out, their national features and competitive advantages are revealed. According to the authors, today in the Russian Federation there is a whole complex of problems that significantly hinder the development of the domestic organic market. As a result, only imported organic products can remain on Russian shelves. It is obvious that these problems cannot be solved without state intervention. At the same time, it is most appropriate to use the basic regulations of the unified German accreditation system Deutsche Akkreditierungsstelle GmbH.

Published: January 2022

The article is devoted to the study of modern factors of the influence of transport infrastructure on the formation of the economy, including in the context of transit transport. The research is based on general scientific methods of cognition (analysis, synthesis, comparison). Based on the research, the author concludes that: transport infrastructure is a necessary and important element both in the production (provision) of transport services, and a significant factor in the functioning of all sectors of the economy, including investment activities, the creation of new transport systems and technologies, thereby contributing to the change in the economic geography of states. It has a central role in the economy, since it, in fact, being its basis, affects all economic processes; infrastructure investment is a key driver of productivity in the transport sector, and the growing interaction between public and private investors adds complexity to measuring the results. In addition, the lack of clear definitions and common practices makes meaningful analysis difficult, which can lead to inaccuracies in decision-making; The fragmented scientific content of the concept of transport infrastructure requires understanding through the prism of an economic and applied approach, the indicator of which in this context is the transit potential of the state, which has a significant impact on its global economic relations, but, unfortunately, is not used in the Russian Federation to the full. As a result of a comprehensive analysis, the paper substantiates the need for a wider use of modern scientific approaches that take into account advanced transport technologies for cargo delivery, including the simplification of foreign trade processes, which will improve the quality of transport services provided and, as a result, increase the capacity and carrying capacity of the state's transport system and its transit potential.

In general, the following stages were presented by us: Traditional view, Theory of agency relations, Theory of circumstances and Strategic management accounting. We found that the Traditional Presentation phase lasted until the 1960s and was characterized by precise cost accumulation and standards-based systems. The Agency Theory phase lasted from the 1960s to the 1970s and was characterized by contracts between various parties in the firm. The Theory of Circumstances stage lasted from the 1980s to the 1990s, and was characterized by the fact that it was believed that universal rules were not suitable and each object should be studied individually. The stage "Strategic management accounting" lasts from the 1990s to the present and is characterized by taking into account the external environment. We noted that management accounting over the past two centuries has evolved and adapted to the requirements of a changing external environment.

Published: January 2022

The article presents materials of empirical studies of the influence of the tax burden on business on the rating of the perfection of tax systems among the countries of the world. To form a rating in accordance with the adopted methodology, a medium-sized enterprise is considered in each country (the criteria are the same for all states), which, under the conditions of the national taxation system, makes payments and acts as a tax resident. In addition, the results of surveys conducted by the expert community among business owners in the countries participating in the study are used. The ranking of countries according to the degree of favorable conditions for taxation is determined as the arithmetic mean of individual components (indicators). Based on the analysis of the tax burden on business in the Russian Federation and a number of foreign countries, as well as the dynamics of the time for preparing reports and paying all taxes for the period 2010-2018. the following conclusions were made in the work: 1) the countries leading the rating are characterized by a small number of taxes paid and simplicity of tax administration; 2) in Russia, a relatively small number of types of taxes for business in comparison with the global average corresponds to the balance of the tax system and the ease of application of taxation; 3) in order to further improve taxation, it seems advisable to reduce not only the tax burden, but also the total number of various types of government exemptions in the existing system of taxes and fees, as well as simplify their collection as much as possible, including through digitalization, which will reduce the time spent on tax administration.

The social sphere of the Republic of Belarus has significant needs for economic resources, the introduction of the latest management methods, advanced nanotechnologies for the provision of services and services. Budgetary and extrabudgetary resources did not fully meet all social needs, so private investment was needed. Attracting private investment in the social sphere will improve the quality and accessibility of social services, satisfy the population, create conditions for increasing the list of social services, and reduce budget expenditures. It is necessary to attract private capital and develop other alternative sources of income, among which public-private partnerships and social entrepreneurship can be allocated. The development of social entrepreneurship in Belarus will help to solve the following problems: creating jobs; provision of specialized services for people with disabilities; support for education, assistance to people in difficult situations; creation of social projects; improvement of ecology, etc. In the Republic of Belarus, a large burden on the financing of the social sphere falls on the consolidated budget, therefore, the effectiveness of budget policy lies not only in improving methods of generating income, but also in reducing social spending. It is recommended to pay close attention to social expenditures in the preparation of a consolidated budget, as well as the development and search for new ways of investing. This work should be carried out taking into account the requirements of the modern economy at both the national and interstate levels.

The development of professional skills is one of the key elements of improving the effectiveness of organizations in the modern world. The issue of improving the competencies of employees should be of serious concern to managers. The main goals of this study are, firstly, to study the success achieved in initiatives to develop the skills of workers employed in the agricultural sector of our country, and, secondly, to develop the theoretical basis of important individual and organizational variables for the development of professional competencies. The management of enterprises and organizations needs to develop the skills of their employees in order to ensure effective adaptation to the rapid changes taking place in the country and the world. There is also a certain need for self-improvement among agricultural workers, as this sector is rapidly modernized and people working in this area often lack skills and skills. The key question is whether the initiatives taken by management to develop and improve skills contribute to the successful development of human resources in the light of the specific individual and organizational context. The article used materials from 26 waves (2017, N = 214) and 28 waves (2019, N = 271) of the Russian Monitoring of Economic Situation and Population Health of the HSE-HSE (RLMS-HSE). The sample is limited to respondents working in the agri-food complex. The economic, statistical and analytical materials of the Federal State Statistics Service of the Russian Federation were also applied. The article presents a comprehensive analysis of the literature on the problem of developing professional skills and competencies among agricultural workers in order to move to the development of a conceptual framework for the successful development of professional competencies of workers in agriculture at the micro, meso-, macro levels. The study identified the following individual variables that affect the effectiveness of professional competencies: actual human abilities, perceived abilities, attitudes, motivation and personal factors related to learning and skill development. Organizational variables that influence the effectiveness of skills development include: labor relations, organizational strategy, culture, leadership style, personnel policy. This study will serve as a starting point for further developments in the study of the processes of development and improvement of professional competencies and skills of agricultural workers.

Published: January 2022

The territory occupied by the Russian Federation is characterized by considerable size and spatial heterogeneity, so the economies of individual regions are noticeably different from each other. This is due to the difference in resource potential, the structure of the economy and the different role of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation in world economic relations. At the same time, some regions occupy a border position favorable for the conduct of foreign trade, which may become one of their advantages in international cooperation. The subjects of the Russian Federation located on the border with foreign countries, based on their geographical position, compared with other regions, have clear advantages in attracting foreign investors and selling their products for export. Major financial flows, denominated in currency and mediating cross-border transactions, must go through these entities. Based on this, the development of mutually beneficial cooperation between domestic border regions and foreign countries is included by the Government of the Russian Federation among the priority areas of national economic policy. In the process of preparing and writing this article, it was determined that the dynamic and sustainable development of the economy in these constituent entities of the Russian Federation is largely determined by a competent solution to the problems of local self-government, which takes into account the peculiarities of the development and functioning of economic entities in border conditions. Analyzing the development of the Kurgan region, the authors came to the conclusion that it does not fully realize the advantages of its geographical location – on the border with the Republic of Kazakhstan. Consequently, the problem of studying the impact of the border on the sustainable and dynamic development of the territory remains relevant today.

Small business plays a crucial role in the modern economy. It is associated with an increase in the quality of life of the population, an increase in production efficiency, an expansion of markets for goods and services and many other areas of social activity. However, in our country, the contribution of small and medium-sized entrepreneurial structures to gross domestic product (GDP) is about 20–22%, and the share of employed economically active population does not exceed 20–25%, while in developed economic countries these indicators are several times higher. In addition, the negative effect that the coronavirus pandemic and restrictive measures taken by the Government of the Russian Federation had led to the fact that the turnover of small and medium-sized businesses according to experts of the National Rating Agency decreased in 2020 by 2.8 trillion rubles, and its share in the country’s GDP could decrease to 18.5% (under a stressful scenario). The most affected were industries that provide services directly related to tourism and hospitality, since during this period not only travel, but many familiar things were inaccessible: going to restaurants and cafes, visiting cinemas, shopping in shopping centers, receiving full-time education and much more. Among other industries with the worst dynamics of falling trade turnover was also the activities of small enterprises engaged in real estate operations, in the production of oil, gas, coal, pipeline transport (including due to negative price conditions in world markets). The formation and development of the regional economy directly depends on the activities of business, including small ones, since the latter is aimed at providing services and producing goods that are consumed mainly in the region, by its residents and guests. Consequently, small businesses have a predominantly pronounced regional focus. Therefore, the development of small and medium-sized enterprises is one of the strategic priorities of state policy, both at the federal and regional levels. The article considers the dynamics, main problems of development and state support of small businesses in the Vladimir region.

The aim of the study is to develop a system of economic and mathematical tools for modeling the socio-demographic development of rural areas. In preparing the article, theoretical methods of economic research were used. The sustainable development of rural areas is the most important goal of modern state agrarian policy. Different points of view on the problem under study indicate the need for more in-depth scientific study and concretization of practical measures for the stable development of rural areas. The modern socio-economic situation in the countryside is characterized by high unemployment, poverty, negative trends in the social sphere: a worsening demographic situation, destruction of social infrastructure, processes of outflow and degradation of the labor force. Changing the quality characteristics of rural life negatively affects the reproduction of labor resources as the basis for sustainable socio-economic development of rural areas. Modelling the socio-demographic development of rural areas of the region is one of the necessary strategic goals of agricultural, demographic and social policies, the achievement of which will ensure food security, the competitiveness of the national economy and improving the quality of life of the population. The article substantiates and adapts a system of economic and mathematical tools for modeling the socio-demographic development of rural territories, in which, in conjunction with the scientific provisions of known theories, correlation-regression and deterministic factor models with corresponding indicators from the declared methods were used, significantly expanding the field of their practical application.

The relevance of the study of the development of the agricultural risk insurance system is connected with the formation of the organizational and economic mechanism for the sustainable development of the national agro-industrial complex, as one of the strategically important sectors of the economy. Insurance of agricultural risks reduces the impact of adverse weather and epizootic conditions, force majeure on the financial results of crop and livestock enterprises of the agro-industrial complex. At the same time, one of the important elements of the system is non-subsidized agricultural insurance. Having a relatively small share in the insurance services market, it still remains a sought-after type of insurance protection, both among small forms of business and among large agribusiness enterprises, possessing high variability of insurance products and conditions for concluding insurance contracts. Research on the development of unsubsidized agro-insurance is quite difficult due to the lack of continuous statistics. As a result, the analysis was based on a comparison of the dynamics of the general and relative parameters of the development of the agricultural risk insurance system. The proposed approach made it possible to allocate the share of subsidized agroinsurance and agroinsurance without state support to the total insurance market. The authors constructed and analyzed dynamic series of indicators characterizing the development of the agricultural insurance market as a whole. It was established that the values of the coefficient of insurance payments most demonstrate the effectiveness of agricultural insurance without state support. The need for this type of insurance is justified, especially at the stage of improving the regulatory and methodological base of agroinsurance with state support. An analysis of trends in the development of subsidized insurance of agricultural risks and agricultural insurance without state support in the context of the regions was carried out. Deterrents are disclosed and directions of development of unsubsidized type of agricultural insurance are determined.

The development of information and communication technologies makes it possible to transform relations between subjects of socio-economic and economic activities by obtaining a synergistic effect with the large-scale use of digital technologies in the process of collecting, processing, storing and transmitting data in various fields of activity. At the same time, digitalization processes become the main factor in the economic growth and development of various economic entities, as it allows effective interaction between participants in various platforms and departments. Digital technologies currently penetrate almost all spheres of life, which poses certain requirements for the formation of information space. This approach to the development of digital technologies makes it possible to increase the transparency of individual financial, economic and organizational-administrative interactions of various entities, thereby reducing the possibility of corruption elements in various areas of activity. In the system of ensuring economic security of economic entities, conditions are created and methods of countering economic threats are formed, including outgoing threats from the shadow sector, which can be successfully resolved through the use of digital technologies in the relevant field of activity. Digitalization can also be seen as a fundamental element of effective economic development and an institutional framework for sustainable productive growth and competitiveness, both for individual actors and for the economy as a whole.

The stages of using various methods of regulating retail prices for food products in Russia are traced: from the enactment of regulations on price liberalization and the establishment of State regulated prices for a number of consumer goods, including some foodstuffs in the 1990s, to adjustments to existing legislation on the organization of trade activities in the face of soaring prices for socially important foodstuffs at the end of 2020. Negative price changes in the food sector during this period coincided with the negative dynamics of population incomes, the compression of solvent demand, which was the result of a new global challenge - the COVID-19 pandemic. The reasons for the adoption in 2009 of the Law on the basics of state regulation of trade activities in the Russian Federation, consisting in the need to protect the interests of end consumers, small agribusiness, producers and suppliers of agrifood products in the conditions of rapid growth of retail chains and the formation of their dominant position in the food market segment, are shown. The proposals contained in the economic literature aimed at changing the share of retail chains in the food market were systematized and analyzed. The importance of developing institutional regulation of this process in the direction of accounting for the total share of all retail chains in the circulation of food products within the boundaries of the administrativeterritorial formation was noted. The feasibility of expanding the list of socially significant essential food products for which maximum permissible retail prices can be set is justified. Based on the experience of price regulation in developed market economies, it has been noted that it is advisable to actively use this method of managing aggregate demand in a crisis economy. At the same time, the priority of indirect regulation of food prices by expanding the competitive environment by improving the development and implementation of antitrust laws is emphasized.
