Popis: Strategic goal of agri-food systems development (AFS) is provision of food safety of the country. This predetermines food sovereignty of the country on the national level. It is important for regions to achieve self-sufficiency in food. Food safety of each country resident is characterized by the balanced and quality nutrition in the volume no less than the norm of rational consumption. To achieve the food sovereignty on every of the above-mentioned levels, it's necessary to have stable development of the regional agri-food systems where the demand, supply and consumption of the food products form. Functioning of AFS is connected with the efficiency of agri-food production, its competitiveness, trading networks activity, population incomes and participance of the state in the forming of food supply and the demand. The role of the state regulation consists in the forming of conditions for the stable functioning of all its sub-systems, provision of physical, economic and social availability of the food. In conditions of the differentiation of the regions by social and economical development, the level of the population incomes and food prices are varied significantly. This stipulates different levels of the affordability of the food. Besides, economic inequality is noted not only among regions, but also among the employees of different economic sectors, as well as residents of city and rural settlements. In these conditions self-provision of the population with food is a factor of increase of the nutrition quality, and the realization of the excess is a source of additional incomes. State support of the owners of private part-owner units, activity of trading and purchasing consumer co-operatives contribute to the growth of self-sufficiency of the villagers with food.
