Government food price restrictions: mechanisms, results, alternatives

Vasiliy Ya. Uzun

Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration, Moscow, Russia

Abstract. On December 2020 the Government of the Russian Federation launched measures to limit the maximum level of prices for sugar and sunflower oil. They were established on the basis of agreements between the Government of the Russian Federation, major manufacturers and retail chains. Decisions were made on an emergency basis. This paper analyzes the legislative basis of the decisions made, the mechanisms of regulation and their consequences. The study revealed problems in setting and observing maximum prices: flaws in the legal framework for imposing price restrictions and agreements between the government and business entities, difficulties in choosing business entities and regions for signing agreements, insufficient opportunities for signatories to implement agreements, difficulties in monitoring the implementation of agreements and evaluating the effectiveness of the introduction of marginal prices. Based on the results of the study, it was concluded that the experiment with limiting the maximum level of wholesale and retail prices for socially significant food products did not yield positive results and alternative options are needed to reduce the volatility of food prices.

Keywords: price regulation, socially significant food products, maximum allowable wholesale and retail prices, cartel agreement

Reserves for improving the efficiency of agriculture

Aleksey V. Golubev

VIAPI named after A.A. Nikonov is a branch of the Federal Scientific Center for Agrarian Economics and Social Development of Rural Territories – VNIIESH, Moscow, Russia

Abstract. With the positive dynamics of development over the past decade and a half, Russian agriculture still has huge reserves for further growth. This applies both to intensive development by increasing crop yields and animal productivity, and extensive - by returning previously abandoned lands to circulation. Moreover, many reserves are associated not only with financial support, but also with the creation of formal and informal institutions that largely determine the effectiveness of agricultural production and the success of rural development. At the same time, the level of competence of the management is important, on which the rational use of numerous resources in agriculture largely depends, which often does not require significant funds.

Keywords: agriculture, growth reserves, management, competence, efficiency

Economic efficiency and prospects for the development of oilseed production in the Krasnoyarsk Territory

Abstract. In the current conditions, oilseeds and their processed products are profitable and in-demand goods on the markets, and this situation will continue in the medium term. In the Krasnoyarsk Territory, there is a positive trend in the acreage of oilseeds, the region occupies a leading position in the Siberian Federal District in terms of the gross harvest of spring rapeseed, the share of these crops in the revenue structure of agricultural organizations is increasing. At the same time, the Krasnoyarsk Territory has a lower profitability of oilseed production compared to other regions of the Siberian Federal District. The main problems of the fat–and-oil subcomplex of the agro-industrial complex of the region are, on the one hand, a significant shortage of processing capacities, and on the other hand, the underutilization of existing ones. As a result, most of the oilseed crop is sold both in other regions of Russia and abroad. To solve the problems, the article proposes a scenario for expanding the raw material base by increasing the sowing of oilseeds, as well as increasing the industrial production of products of the fat-and-oil subcomplex of the agro-industrial complex in the region. The implementation of investment projects for the development of the fat-and-oil subcomplex in the region will have a significant socio-economic effect.

Keywords: oilseed crops, oilseed production, oil and fat subcomplex, agro-industrial complex, economic efficiency, profitability, export, potential, Krasnoyarsk Territory

Acknowledgements: the project “Efficiency of application of various types of taxation systems by agricultural organizations of the Krasnoyarsk Territory” was implemented with the support of the Krasnoyarsk Regional Science Foundation.

Abstract. Consumer cooperatives do not always use the possible potential of the region for their development. The success of the development of the cooperative largely depends on support from the state. Also, with an increase in production volumes by households by 3.7%, the volume of purchases from consumer cooperation is reduced by 8.5%. The novelty of the study is the results obtained on the potential of the purchasing and marketing activities of consumer cooperatives.

Keywords: consumer cooperation, households, food security, sustainable development of territories, purchasing and marketing activities
