Import substitution trends in agriculture of the Russian regions
Authors: Schepina I , Gogoleva T , Charykova O 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
The relevance of the research topic is determined by the importance of the agricultural industry for the development of the Russian economy and the need to determine the results of state support for modernization and competitiveness of the agro-industrial complex. Since at the present stage government regulation includes protectionist policy instruments leading to import substitution in the industry, it is also relevant to study its influence in the context of the overall strategy for the development of agriculture. The problem solved in this research is in determining the trends of import substitution in agriculture in various regions of Russia. In determining sectoral peculiarities, priority is not given to the climatic or socio-economic conditions of the regions (as opposed to traditional, existing approaches) but to changes in the volume and structure of agricultural production, the ratio of export and import of industry products, changes in the volume of investment, etc., which is interpreted as the results of the state policy aimed at the development of the agro-industrial complex. When solving the tasks, we used the import load coefficients and import priority for the country as a whole, the analyzed regions’ clustering, which allowed us to identify typological groups depending on the degree and direction of development of the agricultural industry and the impact of government regulation on it. Such an analysis is based on the conclusions that the agro-industrial complex in Russia is a complex industry characterized by external economies of scale with a dynamically increasing profitability, and its sub-sectors are developing according to the “catch-up growth” scenario, the success of which is largely determined by an adequate strategy and instruments of government regulation. The proposed toolkit in the study can be used as part of monitoring the assessment of the effectiveness of the state strategy for the development of the agro-industrial complex.
Regional meat market: a specific structure and development priorities
Authors: Salnikova E , Popova E , Zakshevskaya E 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
The relevance of the research topic is determined by the need to meet the needs of the population in meat products, the formation of a reliable balanced source of raw materials, and the implementation of import substitution policies. The purpose of this scientific work is to assess the modern functioning of the meat market in the Voronezh region and to justify the priority directions for the further development of its main segments. The study used the methods of portfolio and economic-statistical analysis, as well as theoretical and practical research results of the authors. The study noted an increase in the market supply due to an increase in regional meat production (with a decrease in imports, including imports of meat and meat products). Also it found an increase in export volumes, including exports of meat products, which was a result of excess production indicators recommended by the norms of rational consumption of meat products (to some extent). The results of the portfolio analysis indicate a growing market for pork and poultry meat, high rates of growth in the markets for beef, lamb, and goat meat. The effective functioning of the meat market in the Voronezh region is facilitated by the clustering process currently underway, which ensures the use of modern high-performance technologies and enhances the efficiency and competitiveness of the regional agro-industrial complex.
Peculiarities of cultivation of broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. convar. botrytis (L.) Alef. var. cymosa Duch.) in the Nonchernozem zone of the Russian Federation (prospects of selection work and agricultural technology)
Authors: Startseva L , Startsev S , Startsev V 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
Broccoli cabbage (Brassica oleracea L. convar. Botrytis (L.) Alef. Var. Cymosa Duch) was already known in culture more than 2 thousand years ago. Broccoli is still less common in Russia. The research and evaluation of experimental results demonstrates broccoli is a very promising crop, both for scientific research and for commodity production. Simply, its potential is still not fully disclosed, both by agricultural producers and the scientific community in the Russian Federation. This is evidenced by the ever-growing number of foreign hybrids of F1 broccoli in the State Register of Breeding Achievements Approved for Use in 2018. At the same time, the research results reflected in the article can be equally useful for representatives of the agro-industrial complex and agricultural science.
The need to develop a national scheme of agricultural production in the context of its development in the EAEU
Authors: Altukhov A , Silaeva L , Alekseev S 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
One of the main directions in the development of the agricultural sector of the EAEU member states is the rational placement and deepening of the specialization of the production of certain types of agricultural products in each of them, taking into account the spatial development of their aggregate agricultural potential. The greatest effect is possible in the case when each country of the Union focuses on increasing the production and export of those types of food products and agricultural raw materials which are most effective in local conditions. To this end, it is necessary to develop national schemes for the territorial-sectoral division of labor in the agro-industrial production, taking into account the natural and economic features of each EEU member state, as well as a general scheme for the spatial development of their agricultural sector of the economy. This will improve the basic parameters in the development of the agrarian economy of the EAEU countries through the rational use of their combined huge agricultural and bioclimatic potentials. The paper also advocates in favor of creating the specialized high-tech zones for the production of certain types of agricultural products and expanding mutual and foreign trade in food products and agricultural raw materials.
Economic efficiency of the integrated formations functioning in the regional agriculture
Authors: Vorobyov S , Trotskovsky A , Vorobyova V 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
The study was conducted to determine the financial sustainability, profitability of activities, efficiency of using fixed assets, land, labor, independently managing agricultural enterprises and organizations that are part of agricultural holdings. The stages of creation and transformation of integrated formations are highlighted in the papers. The authors describe the experience of the functioning of agricultural holdings in the Altai region, which is one of the main agro-industrial regions of Russia. The prevalence of integrated formations of organizations of the agro-industrial complex, state, and municipal administration in the structure of head companies was revealed. Based on the annual financial statements of more than 750 agricultural organizations in the region, a number of financial and economic indicators were calculated. It was revealed that self-managing entities were characterized by higher efficiency in the use of labor, fixed assets, agricultural land and financial stability, having a more diversified industry sector than the agricultural holdings did. Similar results contradict the management practices of most regions of Russia, in which the membership of agricultural organizations to agricultural holdings leads to an increase in the economic efficiency of resource use and financial condition.
The impact of structural changes on the profitability of agricultural organizations in the region
Authors: Vorobyova V , Vorobyov S , Chernykh A 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
Studies were conducted to determine the influence of structural factors on the profitability of agricultural production. The main hypothesis: the structural shifts of the sectoral structure are associated with changes in conditions in the market for agricultural products, raw materials and food, the system of state regulation of agricultural production, as well as relations between partners in the agro-industrial complex. It was revealed that the largest amplitude of structural fluctuations per unit specific weight of products was observed for sheep, beet, beekeeping, and pig breeding products. The decline in production in sheep breeding is associated with the elimination of unprofitable activities in the pig industry, mainly with the bankruptcy of the loaned pig farms. The influence of structural and quality indicators on the profitability of agricultural enterprises in the region as a whole and its natural-economic zones is shown. Given the number of industries, the standardized weighted profitability ratio is higher in municipalities with a high concentration of crops of grain crops, sunflower, sugar beet, and it is below with a concentration of milk production. The directions of the formation of the mechanism of balanced (proportional) development of agriculture are generalized, connected with the need to improve state regulation of the development of agriculture and the mechanism of producers’ adaptation to changes in external conditions.
Competitiveness of agri-food products of Russia in current conditions

Published: June 2019

Abstract
Import substitution has become an important element of economic policies in the Russian Federation. Agriculture is one of the main sectors of the Russian economy, demonstrating significant results of import substitution. Therefore, it seems appropriate to analyze what growth rates of agricultural products have been achieved in terms of import substitution, whether manufactured products are competitive, what is the potential for further import substitution, due to which it is possible to ensure sustainable development of the industry in the long term. As a result of the research, it was established that despite the negative macroeconomic conditions formed after 2014, import substitution made it possible to achieve positive results in the development of the agro-industrial complex. The duration of the import substitution process is different for individual types of agricultural products and depends on a number of factors, both economic and technological. Competitiveness of domestic products in 2013-2016 increased significantly. The main factors for improving competitiveness were the favorable market conditions and the depreciation of the national currency. As the share of domestic products in the general market resources increases and / or the Russian ruble strengthens, growth opportunities in the agricultural sector of the economy will weaken due to import substitution, which requires searching for new development factors.

The article is devoted to the analysis and understanding of various manifestations of business intelligence in the agricultural sector, which contribute to the development of this industry, making all the processes taking place in it more productive. Particular attention is paid to the development of new technological devices, which clearly demonstrates the importance of using business intelligence to optimize the functioning of all industries of the national economy. It is shown that innovations regarding information processing methods penetrate all levels of the agro-industrial sector, becoming the object of large investments.
Efficiency of potato production: analysis of variation and differentiation of regions of the Russian Federation
Authors: Osipov V , Zhevora S , Yanushkina N 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
The article makes an attempt to research the statistical dependencies characterizing the potato production efficiency in the subjects of the Russian Federation. Solutions to food security problems are revealed through the achievement of threshold values for the production and self-sufficiency of individual products. So, for the production of potatoes, the threshold value of food security is set at 95%. Achieving threshold values is extremely important for achieving food security, but it is equally important to assess the role of Russian regions in the production of potatoes, as well as to assess the efficiency of production in agricultural organizations, private household plots, and farms. The conducted economic and statistical analysis shows that the average yield for agricultural organizations is higher than for personal subsidiary farms by 1.5 times. Comparison with farms is also not in favor of the latter. Agricultural organizations have the opportunity to observe the technology of potato cultivation, buy new varieties, high-yielding and resistant to pests, apply fertilizers. Small farms are unable to meet the requirements of technology due to their scale, which affects the degeneration of the genetic line and the fall in yield.

Published: June 2019

Abstract
Improving the methodology for assessing the efficiency of management and land use of the agricultural sector of municipalities as a determining factor in the development of rural areas plays an important role in solving the problem of effective functioning of the agricultural territorial complex. Scientifically based assessment allows to analyze the efficiency of management and land use of the agricultural sector by ensuring the comparability of the results. The fairness and scientific validity of the evaluation results are important. The authors substantiate the expediency of applying a new methodological approach to the assessment of the efficiency of management and the use of lands of municipalities in practical analytical activity. The authors of the article developed and tested the method of assessing the efficiency of management and land use of the agricultural sector of municipalities in the region. This technique is based on the calculation of the efficiency of management and land use. The calculations were performed using a specially developed package of applications and cluster analysis. The proposed methodology makes it possible to identify effectively developing municipal entities of the region and ensures the comparability of the calculated indicators. This expands the possibilities and makes it more statistically correct to use the coefficient for a fair assessment of the work of the agrarian sector of municipalities.

Abstract
Diversified development of rural areas now depends on the state of the service sector and the quality of social services provided, which, on the one hand, are aimed at meeting the social needs of rural residents and improving the infrastructure provision of territories, and, on the other, they contribute to the creation of new jobs in the countryside, increasing incomes and improving the quality of life for villagers. The purpose of this scientific work is to justify the need to restructure the rural economy with a focus on the development of the social services sector. The study used general scientific methods and techniques of a systematic approach, deduction and induction, analogy, statistical analysis. The study shows the increasing role of the service sector in the rural economy and presents, on the basis of expert evaluation, the results of providing the rural population with social services in the main sectors: education, health, culture, sports, personal services, catering, and trade. To create comfortable living conditions in rural areas, opportunities for diversified development of the social services sector in the following areas have been identified: activities, products, and technologies. The implementation of the designated diversification areas affecting all branches of the service sector will expand the range of services provided and modernize the forms and methods used to serve the rural population.

Counter-sanctions, milk production efficiency and scale: how are they interrelated?
Authors: Shchetinin A , Vorozheikina T , Shabunina V 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
The counter-sanctions imposed in 2014 by the Russian government have led to an artificial reduction in competition through the reduction of competitive pressure from foreign milk and dairy producers. Conditions of supply shortage led to a change in the behavior of milk producers both in terms of production volumes and the quality of the products. This paper describes changes of the Russian milk market on the example of the Moscow Region and the impact on this change of counter-sanctions, market conditions and scale of production.
The uniformity of a random process structure of plants transpiration
Authors: Grishin A P , Grishin A A , Grishin V A 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
It is noted that the process of transpiration in plants is characterized by randomness and determinism, which co-exist with the Random processes. Their properties are well described by methods of probability theory. Fractal structures having a total intra-group determinism and randomness is described by fractal analysis methods. The results of studies on fractal dimensions of seedling samples have similar values, indicating that homogeneity of the structure of the process of transpiration do not depend on the plant species. Selected deterministic component has a fractal dimension close to unity, which allows to ensure a high degree of determination of the obtained number. And close values of the variances of the centered random components of each process of the studied cultures refer to together with the same value, which is confirmed by a test of this hypothesis using the criterion Cochran. It is shown that the regularity of the homogeneity of the structure of a random process of transpiration for all studied plants allows to simplify the set of hardware requirements transpiration irrigation.
