SHAPING AND DEVELOPING AGRO-INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX OF THE REPUBLIC OF BASHKORTOSTAN IN IMPLEMENTATION OF IMPORT SUBSTITUTION POLICY
The significant role of import substitution in ensuring food security of the country is revealed. The paper demonstrates the need to shape a strategy of accelerated import substitution in the agri-food complex at the regional level in the Russian Federation under the conditions of economic sanctions and retaliatory food embargo. The relevance of the development of methodological approaches and regulations is determined. They are aimed at solving the problem of supplying the urban and rural population with foods produced in the region and ensuring regional food security. The regional aspect of import substitution in the agri-food complex is approved based on the example of the Republic of Bashkortostan. The results of the analysis of the current situation and the development of agri-food complex of the Republic of Bashkortostan are presented. The dynamics of exports, imports and personal consumption of basic foods in the region is examined. The dynamics of consumer spending on food by urban and rural households of the republic is shown. The authors conclude that a systematic approach and strategic planning methods should be used in developing import substitution strategies in the agri-food complex at the regional level.
