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.

The purpose of the article is to reveal the dialectics of the interconnection of the development of institutional social forms of the functioning of economic systems and property relations in the agrarian sector, studying the world experience of market circulation of land. In clarifying these questions dialectical, dynamic, systematic, unity of logical and historical approaches, methods of generalization, analysis and synthesis, etc. Institutional social forms of functioning of economic systems are the real forms of organization of economic activity, norms and rules of conduct of economic entities that have developed in a given society at a certain stage of its development. According to the civilization approach, three institutional social forms of functioning of economic systems can be distinguished: pre-industrial, industrial and post-industrial economical systems, which differ in their institutional frameworks for their functioning. Each of them has its own definite system of property relations, which is constantly evolving and complicated, gaining new forms of development. In general, ownership of land during the history of mankind was in its evolution, three stages (levels) of development: community - private - public property. That is, as we see, the development of property relations has an interesting tendency - in the early stages of its development, humanity used common, collective forms of ownership, later, with the development of productive forces, communal property self-denied and displaced by private property, self-development which takes place in the direction of its socialization (socialization of the nature of labor and production) and the emergence of collective forms of private property. The dialectic of the relationship between the development of institutional social forms of the functioning of economic systems and property relations in the agricultural sector is that the development of land ownership relations leads to changes and transformations in the system of economic relations, their transition to a higher stage of socio-economic development and the emergence of new social forms of functioning of economic systems. In its turn, the emergence of new institutional social forms of functioning of economic systems causes changes in the structure of ownership relations with the land, leads to the emergence and dominant position in the agrarian sector of new types and forms of ownership, reflecting the socio-economic nature of a particular economic system. On the basis of the analysis of the evolution of land ownership relations in different economic systems, one can conclude that their development is characterized by certain patterns: the development and complication of property patterns are constantly underway; Each form of ownership by its nature is historical; the emergence of a more developed form of ownership of land does not lead to the complete disappearance of the previous form of ownership; as the evolution of land ownership relations in the direction of socialization takes place, the convergence of interests of opposing classes, social groups; the development of the essential basis of property takes place in an evolutionary way, and the change in the legal form of ownership - institutional instruments; Each typical civilization is characterized by a specific for the conditions of its development, the dominant object of property, which reflects the level of development of the productive strength of human labor and the corresponding formative peculiarities of the appropriation of means and production results; the formation of private ownership of land in a post-industrial society takes place mainly through its purchase; the state regulates private ownership of land and does not allow the concentration of too large areas of land in one hand; State policy in the field of land relations is aimed at consolidating land and consolidating farms.

An efficient market economy presupposes functioning of highly developed infrastructure for agricultural production. One of the negative factors restraining the modernization of agricultural sector of Kazakhstan, its material and technical base and the development of rural areas is the regression of production mechanism. The formation of competitive model of interconnected structures serving agriculture contributes to the creation of integration ties and improvement of State regulation, the expansion of domestic production and the increase in the competitiveness of the products of this industry. The article shows the problems of structural imbalances in the provision of enterprises with all types of material and technical resources of agro-industrial complex, lag in the level of the internal infrastructure of agricultural enterprises and agro-industrial complex as a whole, which leads to the ineffective use of elements of production potential and is an obstacle to the introduction of modern equipment and technologies, as well as new forms of organization of production. The agricultural sector as raw material support for light industry is a key one in the country's economy. As modern experience of industry associations of developed countries shows, functioning of production services market is viewed as trend based on the principles and characteristics of the development of various industries. The authors present an improved Kazakhstani model for the development of agricultural production infrastructure, taking into account the best world practice of consistency in planning and evaluating results, the complexity of measures, individual approach, guarantees of fulfillment of obligations.

The article deals with the peculiarities of the formation of the modern system of agrarian production in Ukraine during its market transformation. The purpose of the article is to determine the directions of improvement of the state regulation of the agrarian sector in Ukraine and the construction of a socioeconomic model. The study found that are not produced enough the public goods that should be created in the process of agricultural production. The concept of competitiveness of agriculture should be modified in connection with the necessity not only of the efficiency of agricultural production, but also of the whole set of factors of the development of the rural region as a living environment and work of the peasant. The necessity of forming a well-balanced agrarian policy and effective mechanisms of its realization, capable of suspending economic destructive processes in rural areas, substantiated. The obtained results suggest that the development of a methodology for the formation of the socioeconomic model of the domestic agricultural sector taking into account new approaches is a promising direction for further study of the mechanism of state regulation of the development of rural territories.

The article discusses a non-standard view of the formation of human capital for work in organizations of the agricultural sector of the economy, in the context of modern socio-economic transformations. In the classical sense, human capital for agriculture should be formed and developed in rural areas. But in real life, this is not always the case, because there are many factors that prevent the classical solution of this problem. First, the demographic factor affects, second, social and household factors, and third, in many rural areas there are no working agricultural organizations where qualified agricultural specialists can work. All these and other circumstances actualize the problem of the quality of human capital in rural areas in relation to the development of agricultural production.

Современная трансформация сельскохозяйственного производства, обусловленная переходом к цифровым технологиям и масштабным обновлением материальнотехнической базы, влечет за собой необходимость разработки научно обоснованной методики планирования потребности аграрного производства в рабочей силе и ее адаптации к новым вызовам. Статья посвящена разработке методики планирования кадрового потенциала аграрного сектора экономики в условиях цифровых технологий. Разработан алгоритм планирования кадровой потребности отрасли на среднесрочную перспективу. Ключевыми показателями плановой работы по определению потребности в кадровом обеспечении согласно методике должны выступить контрольные цифры приема в образовательные учреждения и создание условий по обеспечению трудоустройства выпускников. С целью обоснования прогноза ежегодной дополнительной потребности аграрного сектора экономики в кадрах предложен расчетно-аналитический инструментарий с применением технологий стратегического форсайтинга, который позволяет в условиях формирования аграрной экономики инновационного типа сформировать новую парадигму прогнозирования кадровой потребности для сельскохозяйственного производства, демонстрирующую переход от сценарного (вариативного) подхода к подходу «тройная спираль». Подход «тройная спираль» не только позволит прогнозировать качественную динамику кадрового потенциала сельского хозяйства, учитывающую изменение условий труда, тенденции масштабной модернизации производственных фондов, применение современных технологий, достигнув максимального соответствия между ресурсным потенциалом отрасли и ее ежегодными кадровыми потребностями, но и будет способствовать созданию системы объективного государственного регулирования общего профессионального и дополнительного аграрного образования на региональном уровне. Практическая значимость исследования заключается в разработке организационно-экономического механизма государственного регулирования вопроса кадрового обеспечения на основе проектных методов управления в сельском хозяйстве, позволяющего сбалансировать ситуацию на аграрном рынке труда. The modern transformation of agricultural production, due to the transition to digital technologies and large-scale modernization of the material and technical base, entails the need to develop a scientifically based methodology for planning the needs of agricultural production in the labor force and its adaptation to new challenges. The article is devoted to the development of a methodology for planning the personnel potential of the agricultural sector of the economy in the context of digital technologies. An algorithm for planning the personnel needs of the industry for the medium-term perspective has been developed. The key indicators of the planned work to determine the need for personnel support according to the methodology should be the control figures for admission to educational institutions and the creation of conditions for ensuring the employment of graduates. In order to justify the forecast of the annual additional demand for personnel in the agricultural sector of the economy, a calculation and analytical tool is proposed with the use of strategic foresight technologies, which allows, in the conditions of the formation of an innovative agricultural economy, to form a new paradigm for predicting the personnel need for agricultural production, demonstrating the transition from a scenario (variable) approach to the «triple helix» approach. The «Triple Helix» approach will not only predict the qualitative dynamics of the human resource potential of agriculture, taking into account changes in working conditions, trends in large-scale modernization of production assets, the use of modern technologies, achieving maximum compliance between the resource potential of the industry and its annual human resource needs, but will also contribute to the creation of a system of objective state regulation of general professional and additional agricultural education at the regional level. The practical significance of the study lies in the development of an organizational and economic mechanism for state regulation of the issue of labor security on the basis of project management methods in agriculture, which allows to balance the situation in the agricultural labor market.

One of the most important directions in this context is the problems of organizational and legal forms of development of entrepreneurial activity in agriculture. Effective development of entrepreneurial activity in agriculture is hindered by poor adaptation to market conditions and low investment attractiveness of agrarian production and economic formations, unsystematic and dispersed revenues for modernization of production activities, insufficient state support, imperfection of the organizational and economic mechanism for managing the development of various organizational and legal forms of entrepreneurial activity activities in the agrarian sector. In the historical aspect of the development of entrepreneurial activity there are the following forms: private farms, individual holdings, households, peasant farms, private and state agricultural enterprises, collective farms, in particular peasant unions, agricultural companies, inter-farm enterprises and associations, of various kinds and types societies that are divided in form of association and level of responsibility. The most important of these, which have become accustomed and function in agriculture, are agricultural enterprises, in particular private ones, and households. However, today the state of development of entrepreneurial activity in the agroindustrial complex remains rather complicated and requires complex comprehensive reforms, the main role of which should be owned by the state. That is why among the objects of state regulation a special place should occupy the agrarian sector of the economy and the forms of entrepreneurial activity, in particular the agrarian market and the formation of its infrastructure, which is conditioned by the state regulation. The main problems of the agrarian sector development include the low efficiency of agricultural production and the problem of deformation of price proportions, the solution of which is directly related to the perfection of the infrastructure and mechanisms for regulating the agricultural market. The process of establishing enterprises on the basis of co-operation and their integration with processing enterprises will reflect the interests of agricultural producers and promote their stable and efficient development. The most effective form of co-operation is production, sales and service cooperatives, created on the basis of cooperation of shares and natural forage lands, fixed assets, livestock of animals that unite agricultural producers, households, purchasers, enterprises of the processing industry, various catering enterprises, institutions and organizations. Co-operation, by its very nature, is an economic and voluntary phenomenon. Integration is the next stage of effective economic forms of cooperation among the participants in the agrarian market.

The article notes the need to improve the quality of engineering personnel training for the agricultural economy. This is due to the fact that the development of modern agricultural production and the sharply accelerated processes of developing and implementing innovative technologies in production against the background of increasing attention to digital technologies in agriculture require a radical modernization of the technical base of the agricultural sector of the economy. The article presents the concept of agricultural classes for young people in rural areas. This concept represents a positive experience of early involvement of young people in agricultural specialties and especially engineering personnel. A special feature of this approach is the involvement of specific agricultural producers, who are anchor employers in these territories, in the early career guidance of young people. The importance of agricultural classes is that already at school, the student can form his attitude to agriculture and by the time of graduation decided what profession and specialty he wants to master. The connection between school and university formed with the help of agricultural classes helps today's students to make a choice that will determine their future life. And its correctness depends not only on the future of one person, but also on the agriculture of the country as a whole. The article presents the experience of creating and operating agricultural classes created in the Republic of Tatarstan (Russia) by Kazan State Agrarian University, which can be replicated for other countries and will help reduce the negative trends of the shortage of qualified engineering personnel for agricultural production.
