This paper analyses the existing methods of state support of agriculture in Russia, develops recommendations for their improvement, proposes new measures of state support that meet the changing economic conditions and requirements of the time in this strategically important sector of the economy. Efficiency of production and competitiveness of the Russian products within the country and in the world, the financial results of farms, their profitability depend not only on the introduction of new equipment, the latest innovative technologies in production, but also on the possibility of selling products. One of the reasons for the low profitability of Russian agribusiness is that the current distribution system is weak and does not meet the needs of agricultural producers. The Russian producers cannot invest in production, take loans if there is a constant risk of impossibility to sell their products. Only the resolution of current problems with logistics, places for distribution and storage of products, organization of markets, road infrastructure will allow manufacturers to clearly plan future costs and revenues. Large processing enterprises, retail chains are not interested in working with small agricultural producers due to the small volume and inconsistency of the supply of raw materials. The role of the state is to support the preservation of rural areas, allocate subsidies for the renewal of technology, and help producers to unite in trade cooperatives. Thanks to the practical implementation of the proposed ways to improve state support for agriculture, it will be possible to stimulate scientific and technological progress to a greater extent, organize the required starting conditions for capital accumulation, expanded reproduction, and generally contribute to progressive development of agriculture in Russia. |
