The authors of the article emphasizes that the development of agro-industrial complex in our country is not only due to the formation of agricultural holdings, but also through the development of small business patterns. Taking into consideration the fact that large retail chains prefer to work with companies that can supply a high volume of goods at once, they are not interested in farmers who supply low volume of output. It is noted that the seasonal nature of agricultural output also increases the risk of product damage during storage. This risk is especially increased if the storage conditions are not met. It is found out that small-scale peasant business patterns are not able to maintain storage facilities that will meet different storage conditions for different types of products. Accordingly, for them, the problem of the risk of damage and loss of grown products due to non-compliance with storage conditions is more acute. The situation under consideration determines the relevance of the stated topic. The purpose of the study is to clarify the main goals and objectives of the formation of a modern storage system for agricultural products as the main factor in reducing the risk of its damage and loss. The study was conducted in several stages: the institutional framework for the formation of storage systems for agricultural products was studied; the institutional structure of the Central Federal district to create a modern system for storing agricultural raw materials and goods was systematized; target installations for placement of agricultural products storage enterprises in the context of the Central Federal district regions have been defined.

Permanent crises in the Ukrainian economy, the devaluation of the hryvnia, decline in household income and purchasing power, increased competition in the global market, as well as the continuous rise in world prices for food and non-food items have created new realities for enterprise functioning in the dairy subcomplex of Ukrainian agro-industrial complex and cause its transformation. World milk production and consumption are increasing. However, there are opposite trends in Ukraine: in 1990, the country produced 24.5 million tons of milk and was the 6th in the world ranking of milk producing countries, in 2020 – 9.3 million tons and the 22nd place, respectively. Therefore, the study of the reasons for the existence of these trends is very relevant. The research was based on the following methods: qualitative analysis and synthesis, economic and statistical analysis, comparisons, analytical and logical generalizations, etc. At the beginning of 2021, the total number of cattle in Ukraine amounted to 2.874 million and over the past 10 years, this number has decreased by 1.952 million, including cows – by 0.958 million. Milk production remains a small-scale branch. In 2020, 9.263 million tons of milk were produced (17.66% less than in 2010). Of these, 29.8% – in agricultural enterprises and 70.2% – in private households. However, the sanitary quality control of milk is carried out only in 14.8% of private households, therefore, in 2020, the main milk supplier for processing were agricultural enterprises, which supplied 77.2% of the total amount of milk delivered for processing, thus ensuring an increase in quality and safety of milk obtained by processing enterprises. A significant reduction in the volume of milk supplies for processing led to a decrease in the number of processing enterprises by 69.14% in 2020 compared to 1990. The main factors of transformation of the dairy subcomplex of Ukraine include declining cow population, insufficient quality of raw milk and its non-compliance with the EU regulations and standards, low technological level of milk production, insufficient quality control of raw materials, lack of modern equipment, high capital and labor intensity of production processes, rising prices for energy and other resources, lower consumption of dairy products due to low purchasing ability, increased competition in global and domestic dairy markets, etc. Possible directions of small-scale milk producers’ integration need further research.

The article is devoted to analyzing the current state of agriculture in Volgograd region and identifying the problems that impede successful functioning of a number of branches included in its structure. Currently, the strategy for developing the Russian agro-industrial complex is set out in the “State Program for Developing Agriculture and Regulating Agricultural Products, Raw Materials and Food Markets for 2013–2020” adopted by the Government in 2012. This document set the following main tasks for the domestic agriculture: ensuring food security and accelerated import substitution of meat, dairy products, vegetables, potatoes, etc. The analysis carried out in the article showed that the greatest success in the region was achieved in the production of crop products. Volgograd region is one of the leaders in cropping vegetables, grain crops, and sunflower seeds not only in the Southern Federal District, but also in Russia as a whole. At the same time, the region lags far behind other agricultural regions in producing the most important food products such as milk and meat. The accumulated problems have a negative impact on the development of agriculture. Among them, one should highlight low productivity of a hectare of land due to the decrease in soil fertility. Another serious problem remains the extremely low material and technical equipment status of agricultural production. The author sees the way out of this situation, first of all, in the active state support of local agricultural producers. Such support has been carried out in Volgograd region in recent years and is already yielding results.


Over the past 30 years, our country has undergone many changes in the field of land legislation. Many of them were aimed at regulating land relations in the field of rural land use and were expressed in the adoption of various types of amendments and changes to laws and tightening fiscal measures for the resuscitation of unused land. However, such regulation has not led to an improvement in the use of agricultural land, and their quantitative and qualitative potential has deteriorated, which has led to inefficiency of budget funds allocated for the implementation of targeted programs in the field of agriculture. Rational use of land resources in agriculture is one of the most important tasks of land management. This article analyzes the use of land resources in the agro-industrial complex on the example of Central Federal district regions. The main indicators of production and economic activities of the regions of Central Federal district in agriculture, such as investments in agriculture, value of gross output of agriculture, yields of major agricultural crops, productivity of the main types of livestock, profitability of production agriculture, as well as indicators of the intensity of agricultural land using: the proportion of acreage in the total area of land, use of fertilizers, volume of agrochemical operations, availability of improved lands, involvement in economic turnover of previously unused land.. Weight coefficients were calculated for all indicators, groups of regions were formed for production and economic activity in the agro-industrial complex and the intensity of agricultural land use, cartograms were drawn up and proposals were made for planning land use.

The article considers the problems, promotion and support of the export potential of agricultural products at the regional level, which should become the next growth point for Russian agriculture. The practice of the last decade in the agricultural sector of Russia shows a significant transformation from the predominance of food imports to the realization of export potential. So, in the Orel region, the export of agricultural products tends to increase; in 2019, agricultural products were exported at $ 88.8 million (growth by 2017 was 24.8%). The leading position in the export structure of Orel agribusiness is wheat, an important direction of regional export is also given to oil and oilseeds, which are the fastest growing industries on the world market, and the Orel region contributes to their development. Despite the reduction grain crops areas in the Orel region, the forecast for the harvest of 2020 is 3 million tons. The Orel region sees the main task of the agro-industrial complex in reaching the total gross harvest of crop production in the amount of 3.7 million tons, which will provide jobs, processing raw materials. The list of directions of state support for export of agricultural products is given. The conclusion is drawn about the most significant prospects for the export potential of agricultural products at the regional level, where its further development is laid. The article emphasizes the need to stimulate the activities of exporters of agricultural products through reducing the cost of exported products.

The article pays attention to the assessment and development directions of the economic development path of the agro-industrial complex of the Southern Federal District. It was found that the most realistic prospects for the recovery of the domestic economy, with existing opportunities, are largely associated with the active development of import substitution, primarily due to the attraction of FDI. The main task of the Russian Federation is to increase income from the export of agricultural products. This is due to the fact that in the Southern Federal District they produce a large share of agricultural products, in addition, the Kuban and the Rostov Region have exits to the Black and Azov Seas (the main example is the Novorossiysk commercial sea port), all the main flows of cargo go through their ports today. Export shipments are growing annually. The author proposes that in order to strengthen economic security and ensure the sustainable development of the Southern Federal District in the face of economic sanctions, the economic system management bodies require a combination of centralized and decentralized approaches to economic formation, ensuring economic security and improving international competitiveness.

Actuality of the innovational potential formation of the regions was revealed in the article. Problems of the innovational development of regions of the Central Federal District were emphasized. Volume indexes of goods, works, services, charges for innovations were distinguished. Reasons for differences in the innovational activity indexes of the regions were estimated. The leading regions were shown, and the dynamic of index changes were presented as well. On the basis of the performed analysis it was revealed, that both objective factors, that are connected with geographic locations, source of raw materials, operation of large enterprises, and subjective factors, such as investment volume, budget volume and structure, politics, realized by local government make great impact on the innovational development of the regions. Statistical evaluation of the innovational activity of the Central Federal District regions was given in the article as well. Differentiation analysis and analysis of imbalance degree in the structure of total volume of innovational goods, works and services were estimated with the help of integral coefficient of K. Gatev and Salai index. Evaluation method of regional innovation activity is based on the comparison of the innovation activity of the organizations in each region with the same index overall the Russian Federation. Constituent members of the Central Federal District were grouped on the basis of aggregate index of innovation activity. It was revealed, that the aggregate index of innovational activity in Bryansk Region decreased in 2017 and the region transferred into the group with lower bound of this index. Belgorod Region and Moscow Region improved their performance, transferring into the group with maximal bound of the index. Also directions of activation and perfection of innovational sphere of the region were suggested in the research.

Given the turbulence of the external and internal environment caused by the coronavirus pandemic, the agro-industrial complex is one of the few sectors that continued to show growth during the crisis of the global and Russian economies. Factors of the stability of the agro-indus-trial complex development were not only active state support, introduction of innovations, use of import substitution programs, but the fact that the sector did not stop working during the Covid19 pandemic. This has had an impact on the change in the Russian foreign trade system in terms of the geography of supplies, their volumes, and the commodity structure. The agricultural sector has become export-oriented and, in the sales structure, the traditional group of leaders, which include various types of raw materials for energetics, has given way to the sale of agricultural products. The article analyzes statistical information on foreign trade in agricultural products, concludes about the impact on the agricultural trade balance of the corona-virus pandemic, the ruble devaluation, changes in consumer demand and gap in international supply logistics due to restrictions on movement be-tween countries.

The intensive development of the industrial sector, intensification of the agro-industrial complex, associated with the use of various fertilizers, active use of modern household chemicals lead to the constant increase in xenobiotics in the environment in both rural and urban agglomerations. There are settlements and farms within the industrial areas, therefore, the issue of accumulation of ecotoxicants in the organs and tissues of an animal, as well as the impact on the state of its health, is of particular importance. In the regions with tough environmental situation associated with anthropogenic contamination, xenobiotics of anthropogenic origin can directly or indirectly modify the activity of various body systems. The integral characteristic that reflects adaptive modifications of biota is the morphological and functional status of organs and tissues of an animal, including the state of muscle tissue. An analysis of the regenerative plastic potential of muscle tissue allows finding innovative approaches to assessing the effects of environmental impacts on animals. Up to the present day, the morphological and functional characteristics of muscle tissue in young animals and adult cattle have not been sufficiently studied in the conditions of the tough environmental situation of the Central Federal District of the Russian Federation. The issue of ecological pathologies of organs in productive animals is quite urgent for the territory of the Central Federal District with its developed agro-industrial complex and industry. The study of animals from the agglomeration of the large chemical plant showed that cattle react differently to pollutants. The animals demonstrated changes not only in hematological and biochemical parameters, but also in the morphological and functional status of muscle tissue.
