BASES OF FOOD SECURITY OF RUSSIA IN THE PERIOD OF SANCTIONS
The present article is devoted to research of bases of food security of Russia in the period of sanctions of the European Union and countersanctions of Russia. The imposed sanctions and countersanctions can be considered, on the one hand, as chance for domestic producers of production of agrarian and industrial complex, and on the other hand as threat for the population and the country in general. The analysis of a current state of agro-industrial complex is carried out: productions of plant growing, animal husbandry, processing industry, condition of agricultural machinery, etc. In work both the positive, and negative effect from the imposed sanctions and countersanctions is shown. The positive effect consists in increase in volumes of production of agriculture and its processing. The increase in volumes of production of agro-industrial complex is in many respects caused by the state support and an initiative of producers. The negative effect is expressed in decline in quality of production and significant increase in import of separate foodstuff and raw materials. The special attention is paid to development of rural territories, development and support of country farms. In a certain degree prospects of development of agro-industrial complex are stated. Separate aspects of a state export and the import making food security of Russia are investigated. For preservation and enhancement of the outlined positive shifts four directions of strengthening of food security of the country and further development of processes of import substitution which are expressed in improvement of the general operating conditions of agriculture, especially animal husbandry are allocated; creation of prerequisites for a sustainable development of rural territories; increase of efficiency of use of land resources and their reproduction, and also development of agrarian technologies and increase of competitiveness of agriculture.
