Subject. The article discusses the availability of technological equipment in the agriculture of the Republic of Dagestan. Objectives. We analyze the current situation and trends in the development of available technological equipment in the republican agriculture, identify the role and place of machine and tractor fleet in the retrofitting of the regional agriculture. Methods. The study is based on monographic, abstract logic, statistical, analytical methods. Results. Dagestan has got a critically few technological equipment, which affects the development of the regional agricultural sector. The availability of technological equipment is found to have dramatically reduced in animal husbandry for the recent 30 years. The availability of technological equipment and land cultivation strongly correlates, thus simplifying applicable agricultural technologies. Most agricultural producers of Dagestan were found to be unable to participate in the program for federal agricultural lease. Conclusions and Relevance. The deterioration of available technological equipment in agriculture is a key cause undermining the competitiveness of products and efficiency of the regional agriculture. We prove the importance of governmental actions incentivizing the influx of new technological equipment, including a set of measures reinforcing the availability of technological equipment. As long as most agricultural producers are microbusinesses that lack resources to participate in many machine renovation programs, funding should be increased substantially to subsidize a portion of equipment acquisition costs incurred by agricultural producers, and a portion of reimbursed costs as much as at least 50 percent of the value of agricultural machines acquired.

The materials are related to the research of issues of public support for the development of small forms of business (SFB) in Kazakhstan. The most important link in agro-industrial complex is agriculture, which provides the country with food products and industry with raw materials. The article examines the domestic and international experience of public support of commodity producers, which makes it possible to draw a conclusion about the need to improve government regulation measures, taking into account regional characteristics, and implementation of State and sectoral programs. The authors note that the availability of budget funds has a significant impact on the effective activity of small businesses. The analysis showed the limited possibilities of attracting loans and other financial sources by small businesses. The solution to these problems should be carried out on the basis of the purchase of a guaranteed volume of manufactured products, provision of loans at the expense of budgetary allocations, concessional lending and taxation, subsidies. The necessary measures of government assistance for the development of the industry as a whole have been determined, in particular, animal husbandry, intensive gardening, and sugar beet processing. Based on the results of the developments, it was concluded that with financial and property support of agricultural producers, including small categories of agribusiness, the tasks set for agricultural sector - increase in market share of domestic products, decrease in import dependence will be implemented. Small farms play an important role in the production of agricultural products, food supply, social stability in the countryside.

Despite modernization, digitalization, and informatization of human activity, economic systems continue to depend on natural factors. First of all, this applies to the agricultural sector, which depends on the dynamics of temperature, amount of precipitation, which affect the cultivation of crops, state of pastures, which is important for the development of animal husbandry. The purpose of this article is to analyze the situation in the Republic of Kalmykia in 2020 caused by natural and climatic disasters. For this purpose, the author used such methods as the analysis of documents, materials of the national and federal media, observation, interviewing during a scientific expedition to the regions of the republic. This approach allowed us to hear the opinions of rural residents whose livelihoods were affected by the unprecedented climatic drought and get a reliable picture of the consequences of the natural anomaly. The Republic of Kalmykia is the driest in the southern part of European Russia. Rural areas of the republic are regularly affected by drought, one successful year alternates with two or three unfavorable ones. The analyzed year of 2020 was the driest, which brought huge losses to the agricultural sector of the republic. About 54 agricultural organizations and 1,416 peasant farms were affected, the productivity of pastures in the republic fell by two or three times due to the drought, and even more in the most affected areas. Agricultural producers suffer huge losses, which will further affect the development of the region’s agro-industrial complex. The article analyzes how internal (agricultural enterprises, farms, authorities, the Ministry of Agriculture) and external resources (federal authorities) interacted in overcoming the emergencies. The lack of scientific analysis of the relationship between natural, climatic and economic factors hinders not only the adoption of the necessary measures to support the region, but also the prevention of negative consequences of various natural anomalies, and the timely and adequate response to them.

Energy is one of the main pillars of the state’s economy, which is currently facing serious problems due to depletion of mineral energy resources and the threatening environment. As a result, presently around the world there is a rapid growth and development of energy-efficient technologies and the use of renewable energy sources (RES), providing an increase in energy resources, as well as environmental and social effects. One of the most relevant and promising areas of renewable energy development is the disposal and processing of organic waste in biogas plants, and this is particularly relevant in agricultural regions. In this regard, this paper considers the state and prospects for the development of bioenergy in agricultural regions of Uzbekistan, where half of the population of the republic lives. The potential of organic waste from livestock and poultry farming of the agricultural sector was determined, and it was revealed that the use of biogas plants for the disposal of manure and litter is clearly a profitable production and requires close attention from rural producers. The introduction of biogas technologies for the bulk of agricultural producers is an urgent task, that will ensure not only a solution to the waste problem, but it will also provide a solution to energy, agricultural, environmental and social problems in rural regions of the republic.

Introduction. In domestic historiography for many decades personal subsidiary plots were viewed as some rudiment of a non-socialist form of farming in the country’s agricultural sector. In accordance with the political principles of party ideologists, most researchers in every possible way emphasized the futility of the personal subsidiary plots and the inevitability of their soon withering away. And at the beginning of the XXI century they re-main a kind of “islands” of small business in the countryside and the main form of earnings for the total mass of rural workers. The main objective of this study is a comprehensive analysis of the current state of personal subsidiary plots of the rural population of Tatarstan in the context of determining the main socio-economic indicators in relation to the study area; identification of the most important development parameters of this form of small business. Materials and Methods. The scientific study is based on source materials from various government departments (including the Tatarstan Statistical Office), newspaper and journal periodicals, as well as data from historical, economic and sociological literature. When writing the article, the author was guided by the principles of historicism, complexity and objectivity. The research is based on the methods of historical science: problem-chronological, comparative-historical, systemic, etc. Results. During the study, the current state and indicators of the development of personal subsidiary plots of the rural population of the Republic of Tatarstan were systematically reviewed, in particular, their participation in the structure of regional gross income. It has been established that the main branches of economic activity of peasant farmsteads are vegetable growing and productive animal husbandry. It is proved that the strengthening of the positions of large investors in the village led to the curtailment of certain branches of production of personal subsidiary plots and their transition to a consumer rate of management. Discussion and Conclusion. The intensive development of various forms of small business in the post-perestroika period, including personal subsidiary plots of the population, intensified the market diversification of the economy of the agricultural sector in general and of high-quality peasant farmsteads in particular. During the forced dismantling of the collective farm and state farm management systems and the formation of new forms of entrepreneurship, peas-ant farmsteads became not only the economic basis for the existence of the rural population, but also a form of self-preservation of many settlements.

The author examines the problems that have arisen in food market: rising food prices, restrictions on the supply of agricultural raw materials due to the coronavirus pandemic around the world. It is shown that in Kazakhstan the size of GDP for 8 months of 2020 decreased in relation to the same period in 2019 by 3%. The statistical data on changes in the level of development of sectors of the national economy for August 2020, the amount of gross output of agriculture, forestry and fishery in the republic are presented. State measures to support farmers in the current situation have been substantiated. Literary sources are summarized with emphasis on the importance and role of attracting foreign capital to agricultural sector. The analysis of investment projects for production, processing and storage of agricultural products is carried out on the example of Almaty region. Foreign investors who, together with the participation of government agencies, allocate material resources for modernization, reconstruction, construction of new factories and agricultural complexes are presented. At the same time, great attention is paid to increasing the efficiency of production facilities and innovative agricultural technologies. Subsectors of agriculture have been identified, where investments in this region are involved as a priority. The barriers and problems of limiting foreign investment in agro-industrial complex during the period of "COVID 19" are identified: uncertainty of continuation of the pandemic, the volatility of world oil prices, trade wars and sanctions, dollarization of the economy, etc. Recommendations and prospects for improving the implementation of investment projects are presented.

In recent years, the banking sector has increasingly turned to the agricultural sector. There is a noticeable increase in the total claims of the banking sector from registered farms in the period 2012-2020, while the part of the domestic product generated by the agricultural sector also recorded growth, but not in the same percentage as bank loans to agriculture. The aim of this paper is to examine the interdependence of the increase in total claims of banks on registered agricultural producers with the increase in the domestic product generated by the agricultural sector. The method of statistical correlation was used in this paper. The impact and changes of investment loans in agriculture, loans for working capital, but also the change in bank claims from agricultural producers based on interest and fees have been analyzed. The conclusion is that there is a connection between loans and the domestic product of the agricultural sector, but that there are other factors that have an impact, too. Although in recent years the banking sector has been more open to the agricultural sector and although loans have become more affordable, it is necessary to create conditions for even greater availability of loans to agricultural producers, which would create positive effects on agriculture.

The goal is to study the issues and prospects of digitalization in agricultural sector, aimed at ensuring sustainable development of the republic's economy, increasing labor productivity, management efficiency, intensive production in agro-industrial complex. Objectives – to study the aspects of this issue related to the implementation of the State policy of creating information and digital platforms to increase the competitiveness and export potential of agricultural production in the regions. The results of the study showed that despite the increase in agricultural production in 2018-2020, the dynamic processes of development of the industry are not significantly associated with the introduction of digital solutions, since the critical mass of the use of electronic, network technologies has not yet been formed. Examples of digital services used in Kazakhstan are presented. Recommendations on informing agricultural producers about the inclusion of this set of issues during the national census of population, necessary for the formation of an appropriate database in agricultural sector have been presented. Some aspects of participation of stakeholders in the formation of digital platforms and the concept of creating an information and communication ecosystem of agro-industrial complex of the republic are considered. Proposals on participation of local executive bodies in the implementation of digital technologies for management of the industry have been developed. Measures for the development of digital competencies of agricultural specialists are proposed. Conclusions – informatization of agricultural sector contributes to a significant reduction in production costs, ensures the rational use of the potential of natural resources.

The article is devoted to the development of innovative processes in the livestock industry of meat sector. The main forms and methods of classification of innovations are studied. The features of innovative activity of enterprises of agro-industrial complex of Kazakhstan are analyzed. Indicators of innovative activity of agricultural entities of the republic in comparison with European countries are presented. The author pays main attention to the formation and development of innovative processes at enterprises for production of meat and products of its processing, which is of considerable interest, since innovative activity in this industry has its own specific features. In agricultural sector, economic and financial state of production directly depends on introduction of innovations, the use of modern innovative technologies that save resources, increase the profitability and efficiency of production system. The assessment of potential resources for the development of beef cattle breeding has been carried out, the tendencies of the growth of livestock, meat production, its import and export in recent years have been studied. The main problems of animal husbandry industry, in particular raising of beef cattle, are highlighted, conclusions about the possibility of increasing the potential of meat products are drawn. On the basis of performed analysis of the level of innovation activity, the identified problems in agricultural production, recommendations were developed for the future development of innovations in the country's beef cattle breeding, since in the new economic conditions, an important role is played by innovative developments and their application in this industry.


The development of the agricultural sector, like any other sector of the economy, depends significantly on funding. Insufficient funding is holding back a significant increase in the efficiency of agro-industrial enterprises. Information on the importance of agricultural enterprises in the development of Ukraine's economy is given. The article analyzes the results of the budget program PCECC 1201150 "Financial support of agricultural producers" in 2020, the current state and trends in lending to agricultural enterprises. Analyzing the attraction of soft loans by businesses in the agro-industrial complex in 2020, it was found that most agricultural enterprises need funds to replenish working capital, and long-term loans are in demand due to the need to upgrade fixed assets and construction and reconstruction of production facilities. Some programs confirm that the priority areas of state support for agricultural producers in 2021, as in previous years, are the development of animal husbandry, horticulture, farming, as well as cheaper loans and purchase of agricultural machinery. The results of the state program "Affordable loans 5-7-9%" are presented, according to which agricultural enterprises received almost half of the total amount of loans issued. The specific features of the agro-industrial complex presented in the article are the factors holding back their lending, so we believe that it would be appropriate to consider the creation of a specialized agricultural bank that would lend to small and medium-sized agricultural enterprises. The services of commercial banks that they offer for enterprises in the agricultural sector are analyzed. The variety of services and programs is due to the desire of banks to attract as large a range of enterprises in the agricultural sector to provide them with funds for further development.

Agriculture solves the general tasks of its functioning, which are more focused on the implementation of three areas of activity, which include guaranteed food security in terms of the production of high-quality agricultural products, raw materials and food produced by domestic agricultural producers in volumes corresponding to medical indicators. It is also a decrease in the volume of import substitution of seeds in crop production and breeding material in animal husbandry and poultry farming, as well as imported equipment for the organization of food and processing products, veterinary drugs and other important needs for the agro-industrial complex. And the third direction includes the sustainable development of exports of agricultural and agro-industrial products to the global agri-food market. These tasks cannot be successfully solved in the conditions of using the existing outdated agricultural technologies, machinery and equipment. In order to improve these functions of agriculture, the digital platform "Digital Agriculture" was developed, which is an information database of a fairly large size about the resources of the agro-industrial complex. Digitalization, creating conditions for the development of "smart agriculture", affects the progress in agricultural relations. With the help of new technologies, the work of farmers will gradually move from manual, which requires great physical effort, to automated. With the help of drones and other drones, it will be possible to determine the structure of soils for planting certain crops.
