AbstractThe chapter utilises four variables to examine Russia’s food trade from the 1970s to the present. The four variables include: frequency of entrance into the global food market; degree of food trade protectionism; degree of integration with Western global trading institutions; and degree of involvement in the global food market. For the period since 2014, the chapter concludes that the frequency of Russia’s entrance into the global food market is likely to remain high as an annual importer and exporter. Agricultural protectionism is likely to remain selectively high. The degree of integration with Western trade institutions is likely to remain low. Russia’s degree of involvement with the global food market is likely to remain high.

AbstractCurrently, many countries are establishing goals for substituting fossil fuels with biomass. This global trade in solid biofuels, which is to some extent already taking place, will have a major impact not only on other commodity markets like vegetable oils or animal fodder but also on the global land use change and on environmental impacts. It demonstrates the strong but complex link between biofuels production and the global food market, it unveils policy measures as the main drivers for production and use of biofuels and it analyzes various sustainability indicators and certification schemes for biofuels with respect to minimizing the adverse effects of biofuels. Biomass is seen as a very promising option for fulfilling the environmental goals defined by the European Commission as well as various national governments. We have measured selected physicochemical properties of several the most common oilseeds and the residue materials in the form of cakes, moisture, fat, heat of combustion, the calorific value and ash content. The results showed that the considered plants and waste derived therefrom can be a good energy source. Examples include sunflower oilcake, sesame, pumpkin and rapeseed cake, for which the calorific value amounted to respectively: 28.17; 27.77; 26.42 and 21.69 MJ·kg−1.

Given the expanding needs of the global food market, it is not surprising that the Japanese are trying hard to make their agriculture sector competitive n the global market. The article discusses the current situation in agriculture and the potential for its further development, most of all, the situation with the cultivated area and labor force. The results of government measures taken to increase the efficiency of production, a change in its structure, and increase in the value of hired labor, changes in the forms of production participants themselves are shown: along with rural yards with small land allotments, sometimes various associations appear; in other words, the pattern of development of the agricultural sector is gradually changing. But to achieve this goal there are still many obstacles administrative economic, social.

The goal of the paper is to identify opportunities following from the use of theory of modern marketing in the business practice in terms to reach competitiveness in the global food market. The paper analyses in details the competitive advantages related to individual marketing tools as well as using some up-to-date marketing tactics with the goal to attract a customer.
