Transformation of work in the conditions of application of robotics in agriculture

The most important factor in the transformation of social and labour relations is the development of the means of production, scientific and technological progress, and the improvement of technology and technology. Recently, robotics has been rapidly introduced in agriculture. The main scientific idea is that the robotization of agricultural production leads to a significant transformation of social and labour relations. To assess these processes, various sociological research methods were used. The transition of the agricultural sector of the economy to robotics contributes to overcoming one of the serious contradictions of modern production, on the one hand, between the growing specialization of labour operations as a condition for increasing labour productivity and, on the other hand, the need to enhance the content and creative nature of labour. Robotization causes a transformation of the professional composition of workers in agricultural organizations. Workers with a high proportion of manual labour (milkmaids, cattlemen) are replaced by specialists of mainly mental labour (operators of robotic milking, robot maintenance equipment). As the analysis shows, robotization transforms the gender composition of agricultural workers. Robotization is associated with an increase in employment with skills in engineering, engineering and mathematical specialties, among which women constitute a smaller part of workers. The use of robotics in agricultural production increases the attractiveness and variety of labour, which has a positive effect on the retention of young professionals in the industry.

The current state and expected indicators of production of vegetable, fruit and berry cultures in siberian federal district

Vegetables, potatoes, fruits and berries are familiar and necessary food in the diet of the average Russian. The growth rate of production of these products does not keep pace with the needs of the population, so every year the Russian Federation imports from 4 to 6 million tons of fruits and vegetables. The article considers the dynamics of production of vegetables, potatoes, fruits and berries in the Siberian Federal district for 1990-2015.the factors influencing the development of fruit and vegetable growing in the district are revealed. Studies have shown that for the further development of these industries it is necessary to intensify the construction of new irrigation systems, to attract large investors for the construction of modern greenhouse plants and the laying of perennial plantations, to use the possibilities of logistics centres to create modern storage bases and workshops for processing agricultural products, to create cooperatives, fruit and vegetable trading bases-markets for the purchase of surplus products from private households and farms. Indicators of production (vegetables, potatoes, fruits and berries) were calculated on the basis of the required volumes of food, according to the recommended consumption rates and the expected population of the region. In the production of vegetables, potatoes, fruits and berries in the Siberian Federal district, personal subsidiary and farm enterprises occupy a leading position, which brings instability to the Siberian market and the orientation of processing enterprises on imported raw materials. In our opinion, for greater stability of the fruit and vegetable market, it is necessary to gradually increase the role of large agricultural organizations in the fruit and vegetable industries of the district.

Zigzags of the public and economic and economic administration of agrarian and industrial complex at the municipal level

The directions on the development of the institutional and economic mechanism of management of the agro-industrial complex by the district management were developed. In the system of regional self-government, the agro-industrial complex should be considered as one of the most important spheres of activity of the population of the municipality. As research shows the most important problems of a regional control system are various approaches and interpretation of territorial and economic bases, competences of local governments in social and economic development of objects of rural territories and also interaction of bodies of the public, economic board and local government. Evaluating the administrative activities of rural administrative districts, it should be noted that their functional connections are not directly directed to the economic structures of enterprises and various organizations for the development of production and economy, since the principles of interaction between state authorities and local self-government of the agro industrial complex are not adequately regulated by legislation from federal to local (district) level. Loss of manageability at the municipal (district) level negatively affects the economic efficiency of agricultural production. In this regard, the goal-setting of the article was to develop the main directions for improving the management of the agro-industrial complex by regional management structures.
