Nowadays the market relations development in the agrarian sector of the Republic of Tatarstan led to changes not only the forms of ownership and management, but also the functioning conditions, mechanisms of management of agrarian formations at all levels of agribusiness. At the same time, it should be noted, that not enough accelerated development of the agrarian sector of the economy is largely due to the weak structure of most agrarian formations, what causes the necessity of improving the forms of economic management, efficient combination of government regulatory and market mechanisms in the organization of production. For further effective development of the agricultural sector requires tothe radical solution of problems, connected with improvement of technical level of production and quality improvement of the manufactured products, with the reorganization of the production structure of the industry, improvement of structure of technological equipment park, increase of efficiency of capital investments and agricultural production, in general. The main causes of existing problems of agriculture development are attempting to explain them, mainly due to an insufficient volume of capital investment, however, at present this explanation can hardly be regarded as satisfactory. Here we can distinguish two groups of factors, that have a direct impact on the final results of the agrarian economics. The first group is the organizational and technical factors, related to the organization of the agricultural production and its technical and technological level. The second group of factors is connected with the current organizational and economic mechanism of management.

The article substantiates the directions of investment activity of the small and medium enterprises of the agrarian sector of Ukraine. The role of the small and medium sized enterprises is well-grounded in modern economic conditions and the need to intensify their investment activities is shown. The current situation with the development of such enterprises is analyzed and the specific measures to stimulate the investment activity are indicated. It is proved that the investment activity of small and medium-sized agrarian enterprises should be intensified. It is obvious that the large agrarian enterprises possess more abilities in attracting investments in particular in implementing the new technologies. However, these are the small and medium sized agrarian enterprises able to reach both economic and social goals and serve as an elevator for the youth in the villages. Also the food security function is implemented by the small and medium-sized agrarian enterprises. The analysis of the data on the development of small and medium-sized agrarian enterprises in Ukraine shows the importance of them for the economic growth and the development of the national economy. Their development was unfortunately negatively affected by the fast spread of the corona virus in the world and the following quarantine restrictions. The data on the development of small and medium agrarian enterprises in Ukraine and in Germany has been presented in order to compare and to use the positive German experience in domestic conditions. In current conditions it is necessary to implement urgent measures to support the small and medium enterprises, i.e. to reduce the tax burden, to provide access to markets, in particular by stimulating the export activities of small and medium enterprises, to increase the level of digitalization of them. Presently there are public programs for support of the small and medium agrarian enterprises introduced by the Government. If these measures prove to be effective there are positive anticipations concerning the renewal and intensification of the development of small and medium enterprises in Ukraine.

The article examines the actual amount of capital investment in agricultural production. It is determined that despite their rapid nominal growth in the national currency, the real amount of investment, translated into the US currency, is insufficient to meet the needs of expanded reproduction. It is assumed that the main causes of the capital investment deficit are excessive inflation, excessive business risks and non-fulfillment of government obligations. In the Ukrainian economy there is a positive dynamics of capital investment in the agricultural sector of production, denominated in the national currency – for the period 2010–2019 their average annual value amounted to UAH 35.4 billion, the growth rate was 120.5%. Their share in the structure of capital investments of the country's economy is also increasing. The volume of capital investment in the agricultural sector of the economy, translated into a more stable currency (US dollars), in the reporting year of 2019, was lower not only than in the previous two years, but also than in 2013–2013. Their average annual growth was 105.7%. The average annual volume of capital investments in agriculture, forestry and fisheries of Ukraine for 2010–2019 is $ 2.02 billion. This amount is insufficient, as agriculture alone requires at least $ 2.9 billion annually investment. Among the sources of financing capital investments in agriculture, forestry and fisheries of Ukraine in the reporting period, more than 90% were at the expense of enterprises and organizations. This is not a normal situation, which indicates that there is a curtailment of bank lending for investment needs of farmers' the State does not fulfill its obligations to support the development of the agricultural economy; foreign investors, given excessive business risks, are reluctant to invest in Ukrainian domestic agricultural production. Restoring confidence in the State, inflation targeting, judicial reform and the uncompromising fight against raiding are key tools for improving the investment climate and increasing capital investment in the agricultural sector of Ukraine's economy.

The objective of the article is to study the possibilities of agricultural production and agricultural processing and search for the prospects of development of the industry of Ukraine. Methodology. The following analyses are carried out: profitability and cost-effectiveness (rate of return) of the agricultural products, the level of consumption of basic food products in Ukraine, availability of agricultural machinery at agricultural enterprises, the structure and growth rate of purchase of agricultural machinery at agricultural enterprises of Ukraine. Results. It is proved that a low level of profitability in the agricultural sector is a significant violation of price parity – there is a deterioration in the ratio of the prices of agriculture producers for sold products, and prices for acquired industrial goods, and for the services of commercial and technical purpose, i.e. there is a situation of non-conformity of revenues and costs of agricultural production. It should be noted that the level of the development of the agricultural complex, first of all, is determined by the quality and volume of food consumed by the population. Practical implications. During the country's independence, the profitability of production of all major products has decreased significantly and negative trends are observed. Comparing the data of 2019 with 1990, we can see that part of the profitable production has transferred to the unprofitable. The analysis of the dynamics of consumption of major food groups over the past two decades shows that for the period from 2000 to 2014 there was an increase in consumption of milk and dairy products by 12%; meat and meat products by 65%; eggs by 86.7%; potatoes by 4%, vegetables and melons by 60.5%; fruits, berries and grapes by 78.5%; fish and fish products by 32.1%; oils by 39.4%. During this period, there was a decrease in the positions of bread and bread products by 13% and sugar by 1.4%. Value/originality. The low intensity of the agricultural sector of Ukraine is largely due to the neglect of the requirements of agricultural machinery and production technology. It is important to apply the required amount of mineral fertilizers, which is one of the important technological requirements for growing crops. Therefore, the effective development of this industry requires a modern, effective and scientifically sound financing program by attracting investment and soft loans.

An increase the efficiency of agricultural production is the most important economic issue at the present stage. However, according to the authors’ opinion, the sharpness of the problem for a long time is underestimated and continues to be underestimated in the agrarian policy of the country. The consequences of such attitude to the problems of agricultural development particularly had a negative impact on the results of the agricultural producers in 1991-1998 years, when investment in agriculture was sharply reduced, the production potential of the sector has been undermined. The agricultural production fell by 50%, compared to the pre-reform period, 88% of agricultural organizations were unprofitable. During 1999 - 2013 years, the government of the country, scientists carried out considerable work to ensure the effective development of agriculture. But, nevertheless, in 2013, the level of agricultural production was by 10.3% lower, than in the pre-reform 1990 year, the financials continue to worsen. According to the authors, so that to ensure the conditions for agricultural producers for effective functioning, expanded reproduction, it requires substantially to increase the level of state support to agriculture, to improve the economic mechanism of management, to develop management forms manifolds, under which we mean a rational, mutually reinforcing combination of different forms of management, based on different forms of ownership, ensuring the efficient use of available natural, labour, material and financial resources. In the paper the author’s definition of management forms is given. The development of forms of management and ownership in the agricultural sector should be seen as a continuous process. The composition and structure of the management forms in the agrarian sector will be updated with the development of market relations, economic conditions change.

Ukraine's agricultural sector accounts for 17% of the country's GDP and is continuously growing. For six consecutive years (2013-2018), Ukraine harvested over 60 million tons of grain annually, and 2018 export of ag commodities reached $18.6 billion. (State, 2020).  The anticipated land reform envisions lifting the moratorium on the agricultural land sale, which should encourage capital investments in ag.  The article analyzes the trends of investment opportunities in the Ukrainian ag sector for the last decade. The regression analysis of labor productivity with variables of fixed capital-worker ratio and yield of grain confirmed that the function of labor productivity depended on the value of fixed capital per worker.  As the U.S. investment in ag machinery export to Ukraine plays a significant role, we evaluated its effect on the current level of labor productivity in the Ukrainian agribusiness, comparing it with the U.S. farming outcome.

On the basis of archival sources and studies of Bulgarian historians, the peculiarities of changes in production relations and productivity of the agrarian sector of the Bulgarian economy in the context of European integration are revealed. It is analyzed which sectors of agriculture developed, and which, on the contrary, were in a state of stagnation. In the process of Bulgaria’s accession to the European Union, the agrarian sector of the economy needed modernization of the management system and the reform of production relations.In the Bulgarian countryside, during the period of 1990-2007, a process of reforming agricultural production relations was taking place, accompanied by the conditions of European integration, which, in turn, led to the need for transformation of all spheres of agriculture in the country. One of the most important was the agrarian sphere. During the period of 1944 – 1989, the transformation in the agrarian sector of agricultural commodity production was rather controversial: the imperfection of land reform, namely land privatization, intensive process of agricultural co-operation, led to the creation of gaps in the development of all spheres of the agrarian sector. With the integration of Bulgaria into the European Union, the issue of harmonization of the agricultural production sector with the requirements of the European Union in the field of intensification of agricultural development and promotion of trade with the European Union with agrarian products became important. Given the current state of European integration processes in Ukraine, a comprehensive study of the historical conditions of the agricultural reforms in agriculture, which will allow us to analyze the problems and determine the prospects for its development on the path of integration into the European economic space, is relevant.

This paper investigates the determinants of human capital investment in the form of formal training (off-the-job training) and estimates effects of this investment on productivity using Propensity Score Matching (PSM) method. We use data from a survey of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Vietnam (completed in 2010) with detailed information about training and several firm characteristics. Our estimates reveal that investment in human capital currently does not have the considerable contribution to the improvement in productivity of SMEs. This result does not support the universalistic perspective in strategic human resource management (SHRM) theoretical model

Abstract The complex analysis of the main stages of Ukraine’s agricultural sector development for the independence period has been done in the paper. It was established, that institutional changes in the agricultural sector of economy occurred concerning following institutions: private property, state regulation, pricing, social capital, competition. The peculiarities of land and property private ownership forming as agri-reforms basis have been determined. Post-Soviet institutions destruction caused rapid decrease of economic development and rural population welfare at the first stage of transformations. The main tendencies of agrarian sector functioning under market conditions, providing growth of the agricultural production and export potential of Ukraine have been identified. It was proved, that progressive economic changes did not provide similar results in rural areas development. As a result, the necessity of focusing on humancentric model of rural development was grounded.

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) are the main drivers of the economy and dominated by the agricultural sector. However, this sector does not show a significant improvement. The main obstacle is the lack of MSME access to financing due to reliable financial reports. Financial Accounting Standards for MSMEs (SAK EMKM) were prepared to address this challenge. This study motivates to determine the perceptions of MSME of agricultural sector towards SAK EMKM. The study is done in Bogor Regency with farmers as the respondens. Descriptive analysis and Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) by Davis (1989) are combined to explain the perceptions. The results show that SAK EMKM was usefull but did not agree that it was easy to implement. Keywords: UMKM; SAK EMKM; Technology Acceptance Model.
