The role of state support in the formation of sustainable grain production
Introduction. Subsidization is the main way of state support for the grain economy. Therefore, the purpose of our research is to statistically describe the impact of state support for grain production in the non-black earth zone on its stabilization. Materials and methods. The materials for the analytical part of the study were data on subsidies for grain production in the Nizhny Novgorod region. In the study, the authors used regression analysis methods to determine the parameters of grain production growth, in which it will be stable and analyze the main components, which made it possible to distinguish the most significant source of subsidies for grain producers. The study algorithm includes an analysis of the dependence of the annual growth rate of gross collection on the growth rate of total funding of public support; analysis of the main components of industry financing; study of the dependence of the variation in gross collection on the growth rate of general financing of public support. Results. The authors identified a ratio of the increase in the volume of subsidies of state support of 1 % and gross collection relative to the average level of 3.71 %. This ratio can be considered an indicator, the implementation of which will ensure the dynamic development of the grain economy. Discussion. The study found that the increase in financing does not lead to a significant increase in grain production. The real return on subsidies is evident in the subsequent period when money is being used, which imposes a negative imprint on the revealed trends. It was established that the most wealthy will be the use of the grain production indicator per 1 thousand rubles. state support, t/thousand rub. Conclusion. The conclusions obtained from the statistical description of the impact of state support for grain production on its stabilization are that over the last period of time the regional budget has become the dominant source of financing for the studied industry. Further research should focus on the development of proposals for improving grain subsidies in the region.
