Purpose. To determine the impact of development of the domestic feed market on the efficiency of livestock industry in agricultural enterprises of Ukraine. Methods. The theoretical and methodological basis of the study was the dialectical method of cognition. The study used specific methods: monographic, economic and statistical, analysis and synthesis. Results. It is established that the Ukrainian market of compound feeds and premixes shows a tendency to the decrease in the level of production and reduction of demand, except for the poultry industry. Positive factors of domestic feed market development are highlighted – growth of demand for roughage (silage and haylage), increase of meal production, growth of cattle and poultry productivity in agricultural enterprises due to optimization and balance of rations feed conversion and share of feed cost in cost structure decreases. Negative factors and threats to the market have been identified – a decrease in the number of farm animals, low purchasing power of consumer companies and farms, lack of state support for livestock, rising prices for forage crops and increase in the cost of livestock products. Conclusions. The domestic feed market in Ukraine is developing in terms of increasing the industrial production of feed, meal and premixes for farm animals. Activation of the domestic feed market has a positive effect on the animal husbandry efficiency. Development of the domestic feed market requires: efficient participation of the state in terms of creating a regulatory framework for economic relations between market participants, a balanced foreign policy on export-import flows of feed and feed resources, strict regulation of feed quality and safety in the “soil – plant – feed – animal” system. |
