The article considers the essential features of rural development as a multi-vector process, which not only involves economic growth in rural areas, but also requires its adaptation to human behavior, social and political structure of rural communities and their involvement in development processes. It also reflects systemic positive changes in rural areas, which are initiated "from bottom" and supported "from top". In this concept of rural development, inclusiveness is inherent. The authors show that the development of the concept of "inclusive rural development" took place in the process of enrichment and specification of the theoretical concepts of sustainable development, inclusive growth and inclusive development in relation to the rural sector of society. This concept denotes a development whose result consists in the creation of proper conditions for the rural population for such purposes as: the use of land and other local resources in the economic activities; adequate distribution of the results of economic growth in the agriculture and other sectors of the rural economy; and participation in social and public life for the consolidation of communities and observance of human rights. Such development leads to the reduction of poverty, overcoming the economic, social and political exclusion of people residing in rural areas. It is pointed out that ensuring the inclusive development is a function of the state regulation of national economy. To implement it in Ukraine, it is necessary to ensure, first of all, the implementation, in the regulatory and legal framework, of the global goals of sustainable development and the objectives for their achievement. That could be realized by adopting the Law on the Strategy for Sustainable Development until 2030, and, in the part of inclusive rural development, also the Law on the Basic Principles of the State Agrarian Policy and State Policy of Rural Development.

Methodological Basis

The purpose of the article is to generalize theoretical approaches to defining the essence of balanced rural development through the prism of the evolution of theories of spatial and inclusive development and the concept of sustainable eco-socio-economic growth. Research methods. The methodological basis of the research was general scientific and economic research methods, scientific works of Ukrainian and foreign scientists on sustainable rural development and the evolution of scientific thought regarding this problem. In particular, the research used the following methods: abstract-logical (when proposing a hypothesis, making generalizations, formulating conclusions and proposals); analysis and synthesis (in the study of the evolution of theories of spatial and inclusive development and the concept of sustainable eco-socio-economic growth); induction and deduction (to study the essence of the category of balanced rural development). Research results. The evolution of the main economic theories of sustainable rural development, which, developing gradually according to the laws of dialectics, inherited the scientific developments and predictions of scientists of several generations, is revealed. Scientific novelty. Scientific approaches to the interpretation of the category "sustainable development of rural areas" were further developed, which was proposed to be understood as a process of improving the level and quality of life of the rural population, which, in turn, contributes to a variety of types of agricultural and non-agricultural activities, productive employment, diversification of incomes of rural households and filling budgets of local communities, social protection of residents, modern infrastructural development of the settlement network, preservation and enhancement of soil fertility, protection of landscapes and biological diversity. Practical significance. The study of the theories of spatial economics, inclusive growth and sustainable development can be-come in the future a scientific and methodological basis for the balanced (sustainable) development of rural areas, which will contribute to the restoration of human-centered socio-economic and ecological equilibrium in conditions of destabilizing internal and external factors.

At the present stage in the domestic scientific environment, the problems of ensuring sustainable development of rural areas are insufficiently studied and require further study. The goal of sustainable development of rural areas is a balanced development of the economic, social and environmental spheres, aimed at ensuring a favorable life of the population. The article considers the economic aspects of the functioning of rural territories of Pavlodar region and provides a comprehensive assessment to solve the problems of socio-economic development of these territories in the current and long-term perspective. As a base of analysis and assessment used statistical data of the official website of the Committee on statistics of MNE of RK, and also empirical observation and informational resources of local Executive bodies region. Based on the results, which identified systemic problems of the rural economy that have a negative impact on the level and quality of life of the rural population. These include, first and foremost, the dominant raw material orientation of the rural economy, low labour productivity, due to the significant moral and physical deterioration of the production-technical base, including the excess of the lifespan of the majority of equipment, as well as the rate of fleet renewal machines relevant regulatory requirements, using a separate are subject obsolete resource-intensive technologies. It is shown positive dynamics of key indicators of agriculture, which developed in the first place, due to government regulation of agriculture and the creation of an enabling environment through the extension of the relevant package of measures of state support aimed at the development of this sector of the national economy. Recommendations aimed at activating the processes of rural economy diversification have been developed. Analysis of the state of domestic beekeeping shows that this market niche in the national economy is not sufficiently developed and this industry has a significant unrealized potential. Significant benefits of the development of the beekeeping industry are shown, which will have a positive impact on strengthening the export positions of non-resource orientation, increasing employment of the rural population, crop yields, solving the problems of degraded agricultural land, etc. The economic feasibility and effectiveness of investment projects in the field of beekeeping development, which simultaneously provide a significant social effect, are justified. For the transition of rural territories to a qualitatively new level of development, based on the conclusions made about the priorities of rural development, the authors justify strategic prospects for further development using the internal mechanism of their functioning, reserves of economic growth and taking into account the specifics and features of administrative-territorial units.

The article deals with the main stages of formation and formation of a multi-layered rural economy in Russia. Presents the evolution of the development of multi-structured forms of farming in rural areas, depending on the degree of influence of the state on the economy of the agricultural sector of the country. It is proved that the key tools of state regulation of this issue are agrarian reforms, privatization, creation of an entrepreneurial environment, formation of an appropriate investment policy, and development of private land ownership institutions. The significant impulse for the development of modern forms of farming in the village was the choice of state priorities in the framework of the National project "Development of agriculture" were transformed into the state Program of development of agriculture, which allowed to strengthen its position as a major Agroholding structures and small-format sector. It is proved that sanctions and tendencies of the new economic reality amid the pandemic of the syndrome has led to the need to promote small agribusiness in rural areas, which will contribute to rural employment, development of rural infrastructure, growth of real monetary incomes of the population and middle class formation in rural areas.

Sustainable development is a new concept in development economics that needs not to be limited to towns and cities in developing economies like Nigeria. This study therefore examined the strategies for promoting sustainable development in Nasarawa State. The study was guided by cross-section survey design. A sample size of 400 respondents was selected from three rural areas in the State using simple random sampling techniques. A structured questionnaire designed by the researchers was used as instrument for data collection. The instrument was validated by experts and its reliability was ascertained using the Cronbach Alpha Coefficient technique. Descriptive statistics, principally, simple percentages, mean and standard deviation were used for data analysis.The findings revealed that agricultural development and social services provisions have been the major rural development strategies adopted in the State that have been implemented in the State. The results also showed that less attention has been given to human capital development, political inclusion, infrastructural development and industrial growth. It was found that radio and television, farmers and traders association and collaboration with traditional councils are ways of creating awareness on sustainable rural development. However, exclusion of rural dwellers at the planning stage and absence of rural needs assessment were found to be the major challenges to sustainable rural development. The study revealed that employing contractors of projects from communities where projects are sited and the need to plan based rural realities can enhance rural dwellers involvement in sustainable rural development decisions. The study concluded that strategies for sustainable rural development in Nasarawa State have not been effectively designed and implemented because the emphasis has always been on agriculture. The study recommended that Government should always embark on rural development needs assessment, sustainable rural development should emphasis the bottom-top approach, greater investment in human capital and rural entrepreneurial initiatives.

The strategic planning of rural development is focused on both economic growth and sustainable development. Sustainable rural development is essential for conserving and improving resources, while economic growth contributes to a better standard of living. The aim of the research is to determine, using the participatory rural appraisal (PRA) methodology on the example of the village of Zlakusa, the economic activities developed in the village, the importance of rural tourism, and the scope of sustainable development taken into account in rural development. The results of the research show that the success of the rural community depends on: diversification of economic activities, which is accompanied by cohesion of the population through association and organization; organized activities aimed at local or republican authorities; activation of human and social capital; and initiating activities involving marginalized groups. Educating the population outside formal education improves the sustainable and economic development of the village and enables rural tourism to become an important part of economic activities and a channel for the commercialization of natural and cultural contents.

State Incentives

Topicality. The urgency of the problem of state incentives for the sustainable development of regions on the basis of economic freedom, property, rule of law and democracy is increasing in today's conditions of strengthening the role of such factors as globalization, competitiveness and innovation in the world. Aim and tasks. The purpose of the article is to study theoretical, methodological and practical recommendations, which should justify the tools for improving the state incentives for the sustainable development of regions in Ukraine and Poland, taking into account the experience gained from the European Union countries. Research results. Research and practice show that the development and rates of economic growth in the country depend on the efficiency of public institutions. They are one of the most important variables that explain the differences in the rates of economic growth in the groups of developing and transforming countries. It was found that the decentralization of state functions means that it delegates its powers to the structures it establishes, one of which is a region with, inter alia, administrative rights. Therefore, the article provides a comparative analysis of the legal conditions for the sustainable development of the regions in the EU, Poland and Ukraine. It should be noted that both the basis for smart development and inclusive development are important, however, this study focuses on the components of sustainable development, and, therefore, the stimulation of an economy that effectively uses resources, while being environmentally friendly and more competitive. Conclusions. It was found that in all the analyzed countries, the planning documents on the regional level take into account the basic principles of the arrangement, development and land use taking into account historical, economic, ecological, demographic, ethnic and cultural features of the region. Prospects for future research in the field of state incentives for sustainable development of regions are related to the effective structure of the formation of the institutional environment of the state.

In the new economy, based on knowledge and innovation, the concept of human capital is becoming an increasingly important factor of growth (and development) not only for urban, but also for rural areas. The studies dealing with the analysis of the available human capital at the local level have highlighted its significant presence in rural areas characterised by a “specific environmental quality”, defined in the literature as rural outdoor amenities. Highly educated individuals who live and work with their families in these areas are responsible for the successful transformation of the local economy, employment growth, the improvement of living standard, development of entrepreneurship, and achievement of high rates of economic growth. This paper is aimed at analysing the relevance of the concept of human capital for rural development, with special emphasis on the rural development of Serbia. The paper presents the results of anempirical study of the model of economic growth of rural areas in Serbia,based on the panel data analysis, during a five-year period. According tothe results, human capital and entrepreneurship have a significant impacton economic growth. Additionally, there are significant differences inthe rate of economic growth between the rural areas with high and lowoutdoor amenities in Serbia. Human capital and entrepreneurship arerepresented in the models of rural economy growth as determinants of thedevelopment mechanism through which rural economies grow.

The study presents the evolution of the rural economy state regulation system based on the experience of economic relations, which covered a long historical path of development. Definitely that, in Ukraine, it is relatively developed, however, in accordance with the challenges caused by a corona crisis and fiscal decentralization, individual methods of the state regulation of the rural economy require not only further improving but also evaluating for real sources of revenues of territorial communities. This stipulated the goal of research (development of theoretical provisions, elaboration of methodical and practical recommendations on studying an impact of the corona crisis and decentralization on the rural economy), enabled to build up a respective methodology based on the combination of general scientific and special methods of research of interconnections between financial capacity of local budgets – rural economy (rural development) – regulation potential from rural territorial communities as well as formulate a chain of the following conclusions. A recession caused by COVID-19 and forced sequestration of the State Budget of Ukraine has made a start of financial uncertainty and low predictability of formation of the revenue side of local budgets, having posed not only a real threat to the implementation of the second stage of the decentralization reform in Ukraine but also having cancelled out a regulatory basis for sectoral modernization of the national and local economy, having essentially braked forming institutional capacity of territorial communities to regulate the rural economy, in particular, due to reduction in budgetary appropriations for the functioning of the State Fund for Regional Development, having formed a steady trend towards delaying in establishing the Fund for Development of Rural Areas. It is found that within the framework of the dual model of regulation of the rural economy at the local level, it is takes place by forming respective, as a rule, three-year programs of development of the agrarian sector of the economy, however, at the level, which still does not allow not only to ensure an expected level of local value-added of agro-products but also shape the regulation architecture ideology, from territorial communities, of the institutional composition of the rural economy, bringing, to the forefront, their potential to support the said process, which closely correlates with financial capacity. A conducted corona test for financial capacity against the background of reduction in the fiscal base of local budgets has established that the existing situation with receipts of financial resources does not allow to gain value-added from the functioning of the rural economy at the local level, having left a traditional level of regional dependence from the effectiveness of the performance of the agricultural production, which does not correlate, to a sufficient extent, with program values of stimulation of rural development, cutting them, on a priority basis, against the background of the need to improve transport connection to timely deliver medical aid to the population, be in a position to test it for the presence of a coronavirus and do future vaccination. The scientific novelty of the results of research consists in developing the theoretical provisions as well as elaborating methodical and practical recommendations on providing enhancement of the efficiency of the state regulation of the rural economy on the basis of the developed multi-stage methods of the assessment of the state of the rural economy and regulatory potential of territorial communities including forming a specialized system of assessment indicators reflecting an impact of the corona crisis on the status of local budgets (with a focus on rural territorial communities) with a projection of the degree of importance of each its component in the system of management of changes in the rural economy.

Currently, the relevance of sustainable development of human resources in rural areas is undeniable. At the same time, the problems that exist in the village require immediate solutions. The state has done a lot of work in this area, but many researchers are still discussing the complete lack of sustainable development of human resources in the rural area. In the study, the author conducted an analysis of existing regulatory legal acts in the field of human resource development in the village. The study revealed that in the strategic documents there is insufficient elaboration in the field of specific features of rural development and the integrated focus on the development of human resources. The modern development of the human resources potential of rural areas, and the assessment of the economic development of the countryside, show that there are many problems in the countryside. To this end, an analysis of the development of the personnel potential of rural territories of the Republic of Buryatia was carried out and the current problems of rural development were highlighted. The identified problems indicate that rural territories need constant financial support from the state. Therefore, in conclusion of the study, it was concluded that there is a need for substantial state funding of rural areas, the preservation of endangered rural areas, and ensuring the attractiveness of the village, which together will attract young people and solve problems in the village.
