Subject. The article investigates the system of statistical indicators of agricultural labor resources, and considers three subjects of the Russian Federation with different agro-climatic conditions (the Republic of Buryatia, the Lipetsk Oblast and the Stavropol Territory). Objectives. The aim is to develop the typology of peasant (farmer) households and agricultural organizations, according to the All-Russian Agricultural Census, and to obtain detailed characteristics of labor resources by selected type. Methods. I employ the cluster analysis and the variance analysis. The depersonalized data of the All-Russian Agricultural Census of 2016 served as an information base of the study. Results. The paper unveils a strong differentiation of peasant (farmer) households and agricultural organizations in terms of size, specialization, and production intensity. This indicates the need to develop their typology and to study labor resources by selected type. Based on the developed methodology, I identify three groups from each category of farms (small, medium and large) in the said subjects of the Russian Federation. Within the categories, there are significant differences in terms of the number of employees and supply of labor. In general, in regions with more favorable natural conditions, the proportion of full-time farm laborers is higher. Conclusions. The findings can be used by federal, regional and local authorities for developing measures to increase employment in agriculture and rural areas.

As young people move to cities, the demographic structure of the village changes, and traditional village institutions tend to weaken or even collapse. Another factor is that agricultural income is being replaced by remittances. The consequences of this development for the well-being of rural households are ambiguous. On the one hand, the increase in the share of non-farm income has reduced the dependence of the poor on land for income growth in rural areas. Rural-urban transformation and rural economy in emerging market economies during the economic downturn: empirical data for the Russian Federation, obtained on June 24, 2017; decisions made in 2018 to allocate funds for the development of rural households in the Russian Federation are increasingly dependent on non-farm income and cash subsidies, while dependence on land is decreasing. The purpose of this study is to promote a better understanding of the role of villages in emerging market economies such as the Russian Federation, using a typical Russian village as an example. The results show that, depending on macroeconomic conditions, both agriculture-oriented and migrationoriented livelihood strategies can be useful. During periods of economic growth, migration contributes to the growth of the population's income, but for the full development of this process, a developed system of information support is necessary. Such a system will allow not only to organize information about various production processes in rural areas, but also to increase the efficiency of distribution of production and labor resources. Despite long periods of absence, migrants maintain strong links with their home village to better cope with economic downturns. This information helps to optimize production solutions in rural areas and improve the development of the village.


The article presents the results of the development of a methodology for assessing the structural structure of the labor potential of a region and its role in socio-economic development, territorial and environmental features of labor resources and mechanisms of reproduction of labor potential. The development of the methodology was based on a conceptual and methodological review of foreign and domestic scientific sources. Promising markers of labor resources in foreign science have been identified, which are manifested in the assessment of migration risks, the impact of globalization factors, forecasting the dependence of labor productivity at the regional level on market factors, climatic conditions, insurance mechanisms, etc. A high level of scientists' interest in the problem of labor potential on micro-, meso and macro levels in Russia. The authors pay special attention to the assessment of existing approaches to the methods for assessing the labor potential of the region proposed by domestic researchers and applied in the Russian Federation; The features of the main methodological approaches are evaluated; their classification is given, as well as the technology for conducting the assessment, depending on the research tasks of scientists. The article describes the methodology developed by the authors for measuring the labor potential of the region based on the index method, which allows taking into account the specific conditions of its reproduction and use at the regional level, as well as conducting reasonable comparative assessments. The calculations are presented according to the proposed methodology of the state and level of development of labor potential for the regions of the North Caucasus and Southern Federal Districts and the Russian Federation as a whole.

The article clarifies the concept of “agricultural holding”, using an approach to assessing the size on the basis of the total revenue of all agricultural organizations within the agricultural holding. It has been revealed that only 100 of the total number of agricultural holdings that were identified can be attributed to large business entities. They comprise about 3% of agricultural organizations in the country, while their share in the proceeds is about 37%. A large share of agricultural holdings — large business subjects under the control of Russian entities operate in one, and under the control of foreign legal entities — in three or more regions of the Russian Federation. Vertical integration within the framework of large agricultural holdings with different schemes for including the stages of processing and sale of products produced in their agricultural organizations allows them to receive advantages. Strengthening the role of large business entities in agriculture puts on the agenda the issue of differentiating approaches to taxation and state support in agriculture, depending on the size of the companies’ agricultural businesses.

The article presents and analyzes the temperature conditions of storage of wheat grain batches during the six-year storage period in silos of precast concrete elevators in the Far Eastern Region of the Russian Federation. The time intervals of grain temperature changes depending on the corresponding climatic conditions are considered. It is shown that the grain mass in the silos of elevators is in a cooled state, at a temperature below 10 °C, most of the annual cycle.

В статье рассматриваются проблемы правового регулирования наследования имущества члена крестьянского (фермерского) хозяйства. КФХ может существовать в двух формах: как юридическое лицо и без образования юридического лица. ГК РФ определяет порядок перехода по наследству имущества лишь КФХ без образования юридического лица. The article deals with the problems of legal regulation of inheritance of property of a member of a peasant (farmer) farm. PFF can exist in two forms: as a legal entity and without the formation of a legal entity. The Civil Code of the Russian Federation defines the procedure for the inheritance of property only in a farm without the formation of a legal entity.


The article presents a typology of rural areas in the Russian Federation in terms of the level and dynamics of socioeconomic development based on comparative statistical and comparative trend methods of analysis, which the authors have elaborated. The authors cover methodological approaches, as well as organizational and economic mechanisms of agriculture, which are stipulated in the government program “Integrated Development of Rural Areas” for 2020-2025, and their expected influence on the transformation of types of rural areas, which have arisen in the country.

This study aimed to describe the dyslipidemia prevalence and pattern among adult populations from different regions (n = 13) of the Russian Federation (RF). Randomly selected samples (n = 22,258, aged 25–64) were studied according to the ESSE-RF protocol. Lipoprotein parameters were estimated by routine methods. Statistical analyses were performed using R software (v.3.5.1). The overall dyslipidemia prevalence was 76.1% (76.9/75.3% for men/women). In women, total cholesterol (TC) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-C levels gradually increased with age (from 4.72 to 5.93 and from 2.76 to 3.79 mmol/L, respectively); in men, they reached a maximum by 45–54 (5.55 and 3.55 mmol/L, respectively) and then decreased. No differences in high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-C in men of different ages were found, but slight decreases in HDL-C and apo AI were observed in women by 55–64 years. No pronounced associations between education and lipid levels in men were observed; higher-educated women showed significantly better lipoprotein profiles. Similar associations between lipids and income level were detected. Women from rural areas had higher TC and triglycerides than urban residents. Regardless of sex, rural residents had higher HDL-C and apo AI, and reduced apo B/apo AI. Conclusion: Information on the peculiarities of dyslipidemia prevalence and lipoprotein profile depending on sex, age, residential place, and socioeconomic status is useful for assessing the global ASCVD risk, and for risk modeling based on national data.
