Problems and the prospects of development of trade in agricultural products between russia and china

International trade stimulates the mobilization and more efficient use of the potential of the economy of a country promotes productivity and income. The development of trade in agricultural products and increasing export potential is one of the most important directions of the agricultural policy of the Russian Federation, as well as the coordinated agricultural policy of the EAEU. China, as a trading partner, is of great interest because it is the largest consumer and producer of food not only in Southeast Asia, but also in the world. In recent years, trade between Russia and China has grown significantly, although from Russia to a greater extent. In 2016-2017, China took the first place in the Russian trade turnover of agricultural goods. Achieving a more balanced level of mutual trade is possible provided that the various trade barriers currently in place, especially on the part of the PRC, are eliminated or reduced. To achieve this goal, certain measures are being taken in both countries, as well as in the EAEU, including the conclusion of new trade agreements, bilateral and multilateral consultations, the development and implementation of joint projects in the agricultural sector and exhibitions of agricultural products and food. Russia has great opportunities to increase the production of agricultural raw materials and food not only to meet domestic needs, but also to export. However, to realize this potential, it is important to create conditions for improving the efficiency and competitiveness of domestic agriculture, improve the investment climate in the country.

Development strategy of the agricultural sector of siberia till 2035: socio-economic aspects

The problems of the development of agro-industrial production in the regions of Siberia are identified. It is proved that in Siberian Federal district (SFO) there is a possibility to increase the volume of agricultural production to meet the needs of the local population in the main types of food according to the recommended rational norms, as well as the formation of the export potential for a number of products. Developed forecast of production of agricultural products in the subjects of the Russian Federation in SFO up to 2035, it is presented in two versions - mobilization and innovative. It is proved that for solving strategic challenges facing agriculture the district required implementation of the innovation scenario, which will require a significant increase in investment in the industry. The main strategic priorities of the socio-economic development of the agro-industrial complex have been identified. Among them are proposals for improving the general conditions of the industry, territorial-sectoral division of labour, the formation of rational intra-industry structural proportions in agriculture of subjects of the Russian Federation in SFO. The main innovation and investment priorities for the development of the agricultural sector are identified. Special attention is paid to the directions and mechanisms of socio-economic development of rural areas of the Siberian Federal District.

Consideration of scale effect in the improvement of the strategy of grain farming development

Целью исследования является формирование направлений, позволяющих улучшить стратегию развития зернового хозяйства. В качестве важного фактора, определяющего эффективность производства зерносеющих организаций, исследуется влияние эффекта масштаба, отражаемого размерами посевных площадей и величиной затрат на производство. Основным методом анализа является группировка, согласно которой зерносеющие организации области распределены по кластерам, а показатели, характеризующие в среднем каждый из них, сопоставляются между собой. В качестве основных показателей, по которым выполняется сравнительная оценка результативности и эффективности производства зерна, использовались: выручка, прибыль, затраты на производство и урожайность, определяемые в расчете на 1 га посевов зерновых, а также рентабельность продаж зерна. В исследовании подтверждено, что эффект масштаба значительно влияет на эффективность производства зерна. Наиболее эффективными кластерами зернопроизводителей в 2014-2016 гг. в Курской области являлись крупные хозяйства с посевной площадью зерновых от 4 до 8 тыс. га и от 8 до 16 тыс. га, при этом самые крупные зерносеющие организации региона гораздо менее эффективны, что свидетельствует о наличии ограничений эффекта масштаба. На основе полученных результатов анализа сформирован ряд приоритетных направлений регулирования и поддержки развития производителей зерна.
