Abstract. The authors define the sustainable development
of rural areas as a basic condition for ensuring the food security of the
state. Sustainable development of rural areas is considered in the form of a
complex harmonious combination of vector components of economic, social and
environmental development, implemented through institutional infrastructure,
which is in constant development and improvement. The authors, defining the
importance of monitoring and timely development of preventive measures to
prevent the negative impact of various factors on the activities of economic
entities, express their opinion that the result of these actions is an increase
in the profitability of the agro-industrial complex and rural areas, economic
entities, which in turn helps to prevent crisis phenomena in the economy,
strengthening economic sustainability at all levels.

Abstract. The conditions for the implementation of
economic relations both at the global and national levels are now subject to
stress, which causes their institutional transformation. The country’s food
market forms economic stability and security, therefore it is necessary to take
into account specific trends and develop measures for its sustainable
development. The analysis of agricultural production volumes by rural commodity
producers at the level of the region - the Udmurt
Republic is made; the trends and features of the formation of the regional food
market are formulated; the parameters of the interregional exchange of
agricultural products are determined; the classification of factors of the
formation of the food market is given. The article reflects the regional
peculiarities of food consumption by the population of the Udmurt
Republic. Management and organizational and economic measures aimed at
sustainable development of the food market and solving the problem of food
security of the region and the country in the new realities are suggested.

Abstract. Social entrepreneurship, as a private form of
business, is a growing phenomenon for Russia and requires additional analysis
and study The social entrepreneurship in the
agricultural sector of the economy at the national level is developing at a low
pace and is still on a par with non-profit organizations and small and
medium-sized businesses. In this regard, we can highlight the problems of its
definition, representativeness and scaling Social entrepreneurship for the
agricultural sector is not only an effective tool, but also represents an
additional mechanism to state regulation. For the functioning of social
entrepreneurship, it is necessary to ensure the economic and legal conditions
for its conduct. Here, the issues of combining market and state regulators for
the agro-industrial complex come to the fore. Assessing the effectiveness of
the regulators makes it possible to draw a number of conclusions about the
driving force for the development of social entrepreneurship in the agri-food sector. In order to achieve concrete results from
the Institute of Social Entrepreneurship in the agri-food
sphere, it is necessary to form a unified concept for the development of social
business at the level of the regulatory framework, increase the state’s
participation in financing social projects at the initial stages, and improve
promotion and information tools. According to the results of the study, social
entrepreneurs for the agricultural sector have the greatest difficulties with
recruiting and creating conditions for novice entrepreneurs.

Abstract. Constant monitoring of the sustainability of
the functioning of agricultural holdings is particularly relevant in modern
conditions of institutional transformation. It is important to assess the
efficiency of using the production potential of agricultural holdings. The
article proposes to carry out such an assessment based on the analysis of the
dynamics of achievement (non-achievement) of the threshold values of
self-sufficiency of the country with the main types of food established by the
Food Security Doctrine of the Russian Federation. The practical task of
researching the functioning of agricultural holding structures is to determine
the directions of their use of their production potential. In the article,
based on the methodology of expert assessment and a comprehensive analysis of
socio-economic objects, processes using interdisciplinary approaches, the
following is assessed: the potential of agricultural holdings in the production
of certain types of agricultural raw materials and food; human resources of
agricultural holdings in 2022; potential directions for using the production
potential of agricultural holdings; the potential of export destinations to use
the production potential of agricultural holdings. The article proposes, as the
results of the study, promising directions for the development of agricultural
holdings in the system of food subcomplexes of the
agro-industrial complex of Russia. These include robotization
and automation of production processes; development and application of own
scientific and technological solutions in product areas of specialization;
activation of participation in the implementation of national projects for
training personnel for the digital economy.

Abstract. In order to find reserves for optimizing
production and management activities, the authors consider the possibility of
reducing the costs of the enterprise by increasing the efficiency of the
harvesting and transport complex, which is achieved by optimizing its
composition. The essence of optimization is to organize the operation of
equipment without downtime. In the article, the authors have proposed various
mathematical dependencies for any agricultural organizations in order to select
different types of vehicles, determining the required amount of these funds in
the absence of the required number of basic cars. To substantiate the transport
support, the values of the following indicators obtained as a result of
time-lapse observation were taken: “vehicle waiting time” and “vehicle loading
time” - for forage harvesters; “loading waiting time”, “vehicle loading time” -
for vehicles. The necessary calculations were performed and the optimal
composition of the harvesting and transport complex for the specified
conditions was determined. The described methodology can be used in relation to
various agricultural crops.

Abstract. The article presents the justification of
methodological approaches to the study of local agricultural production markets
(the level of administrative districts of the subjects of the Russian
Federation) in the conditions of development of rural local economy. The
developed methodological tools were used to assess the level of development of
retail markets and fair trade in the districts of Omsk and Tambov regions. The
final part of the article presents the main conclusions of the study. The main subjects
of the markets of the local rural economy are local producers who are not
included in the composition of large agricultural and processing enterprises
located in this area, and local consumers, residents of villages, villages and
cities within which local producers sell their products or services. The
development of the markets of the local rural economy is determined by the
sales potential of local food products, which is limited for small and
medium-sized producers by available local sales channels, such as agricultural
markets and fairs, unlike large producers whose sales are focused on network
trade, large regional wholesalers or their own trading houses.
Keywords: local rural economy, the role of local markets

Abstract. The article substantiates the choice of such an
indicator as self-sufficiency in basic types of food as a criterion for
assessing food security at the municipal level. The methodology proposed by the
authors for calculating indicators of self-sufficiency in basic types of food
at the municipal level is described in detail in earlier publications. The
results of the analysis of the data obtained on self-sufficiency in such types
of products as potatoes, vegetables, meat, milk, fruits and berries in the
municipal districts of the Vladimir region in dynamics in the period 2010-2021
are presented. The leaders in self-sufficiency of the main types of food in
2021 were Sobinsky and Yuriev-Polsky
municipal districts located in the zone of the most fertile gray forest soils.
Indicators of self-sufficiency in meat are below the norm, with the exception
of Sobinsky and Yuriev-Polsky
districts. The situation for milk is somewhat better, self-sufficiency
indicators are normal and higher in six municipalities: Kovrovsky,
Petushinsky, Selivanovsky, Sobinsky, Sudogodsky and Yuriev-Polsky; positive dynamics was observed in the period
2010-2021. For vegetables in all municipalities of the Vladimir region in the
period 2010-2021, negative dynamics was observed, and as of 2021, low
indicators of self-sufficiency were noted, with the exception of Vyaznikovsky and Yuriev-Polsky
districts. An assessment of the relationship between self-sufficiency of the
main types of products and the level of land degradation in the municipalities
of the Vladimir region is given.

Abstract. The article contains an analytical
review of diversification processes in the agro-food sector. The reasons for
the formed diversification trends are identified; the potential for their
modification or preservation is assessed, taking into account the
transformation of factors that are catalysts for these processes; considerable
attention is paid to issues of regional diversification in the context of
sanctions restrictions. Possible modifications of the processes of regional
diversification in the agro-food sector in the focus of measures taken by the
country’s leadership in the framework of the formation of national food
security and ensuring the long-term integrated development of the national
agro-food sector have been studied. The reserves of the use of existing
technological capabilities for constructive support and correction of the
trends of regional diversification have been assessed. The possible prospective
territories of localization of agro-industrial enterprises in the regions are
investigated. Based on the results of the study, measures are proposed to
optimize the trends of regional diversification, taking into account the
capabilities of the state.

Abstract. The agro-industrial complex of Russia has a
complex structure of forms of management. The implemented principle of its
multiplicity until recently included personal subsidiary farms, peasant
(farmer) farms, sole proprietors and agricultural organizations as part of the
forms of management of the agricultural sector of the economy. The situation
has changed significantly since 2020. The backbone organizations of the
agro-industrial complex were identified, including not only large agricultural
organizations, but also the corresponding agricultural holdings. Since 2021,
state support for private households has been provided. This required the
allocation of a segment of institutionalized agricultural producers as self-employed
from a variety of personal subsidiary farms. The discussion also continues
about the need to divide personal subsidiary farms into commodity and
non-commodity ones. All the above problems, institutional changes, as well as
modern complex foreign economic conditions of the functioning of the economic
entities of the domestic agro-industrial complex have determined the need to
improve the methodology for modeling the effectiveness of business forms. The
article discusses the legislative and regulatory norms that establish the
criteria for classifying business entities in the agrarian sector to a certain
category. These criteria did not form a unified system that allows evaluating
various forms of management in a single methodological field. To solve this problem,
the authors propose a system of criteria and their normative values (upper
limit) for modeling and evaluating the effectiveness of business forms in the
agro-industrial complex, with the calculation of the efficiency index based on
them, which is a mathematical model of the effectiveness of the business form.

Introducing modern
technologies to increase the economic efficiency of cocoa production in Africa
Nina G. Gavrilova
Centre for Transition Economy Studies, Institute for African Studies of
the Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, Russia
Abstract. Global cocoa production has undergone
significant changes over the past 60 years. The global volume of cultivation of
this crop has grown significantly. The leading manufacturing countries in the
industry have also switched their positions over the time. African countries,
such as Ghana, Nigeria, Ivory Coast and Cameroon have significantly improved
their results. At the same time, Ivory Coast steadily occupies the first place
in this top for more than 40 years. To analyze the performance, two African
states were selected – the first (Ivory Coast) and last (Cameroon) of the top
ten. As a result, it was found that farmers in both countries have similar
problems, regardless of the amount of cocoa produced. Almost all difficulties
are associated with problems of maintaining tall cocoa trees due to difficult
access, which significantly reduces the already unsatisfactory productivity of the
sector. Another important problem in the selected African countries is the
jobless youth employment; as young people don’t want put their life to work in
backward agriculture. Despite the nominal increase of production volumes, the
cocoa industry is undergoing a crisis, as its development follows an extensive
path. Since cocoa is an indispensable product used in many fields,
intensification plays a crucial role in the industry development. Therefore
manufacturers have begun to use modern digital developments including hardware
and software solutions more often. One of the decisions is to implement
unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in the cocoa industry to collect and process
information (quality assessment of cocoa trees, terrain mapping, etc.), as well
as to take care of cocoa trees (for example, for the precise application of
chemical protection against pests and diseases). The article demonstrates the
use of UAVs on the example of the cocoa sectors of Ivory Coast and Cameroon.
Today, the latest technologies are still in the development and testing phase,
so their large-scale application has not been implemented yet. However it is
clear that innovations developed for the cocoa industry will not only increase
production efficiency but also may attract young professionals to the sector.
It is expected that these developments can be subsequently applied on a wider
scale and will be used not only in the cocoa industry but in many other fields.

Abstract. Romania’s accession to the European Union in
2007, from the point of view of the subsectors of agriculture, as well as the
integration of any of the Eastern European countries, became a challenge for
the EU and especially for the Common Agricultural Policy (hereinafter CAP).
Romania and Bulgaria, with the countries that joined in 2004 (Czech Republic,
