The article analyzes the most important institutional and structural changes in the agriculture of Russia in 2006—2016. The research has shown that the policy of reducing state participation in agricultural enterprises, increasing the concentration of property and management in the hands of a smaller number of individuals, growing share of agricultural organizations and farmers in the production of agricultural products, as well as the state support of agricultural holdings have played a positive role in the development of production. Structural changes in land use and land ownership of agricultural organizations are taking place. An attempt has been made to evaluate these changes. As the research has revealed, structural changes that ensured the growth of production had some negative consequences: the expansion of the activities of agricultural holdings led not only to the reduction in agricultural employment, but also to the decline of the rural population; the owners and managers rather than workers have become the main beneficiaries of the growth of revenues and incomes in organizations and redistribution of value added.

An efficient development of the agricultural sector of the economy of Ukraine is possible only under the condition of stability and optimality of tax legislation, while its constant changes adversely affect the activities of agricultural enterprises. Therefore, the State support and the creation of favorable conditions for development will allow the agro-industrial complex to become a highly efficient and competitive sector of the economy. The article is concerned with studying and analyzing the transformational changes in taxation of agricultural producers in Ukraine. Both the positive and the negative consequences of tax reforms implementation are examined, in particular, the results of the introduction of a single tax for the taxation of agricultural enterprises are considered and the dynamics of volumes of its revenues to local budgets is analyzed; the main problems that arose in the agricultural sector as a result of the reform carried out by the State on receiving the value added tax (VAT) from agricultural enterprises are distinguished and the impact of this reform on the profitability of these enterprises is disclosed. Efficiency of the introduction of the system of budget subsidies for agricultural producers, which were provided to them in connection with the abolition of a special VAT tax regime, is analyzed. Since support for the agricultural sector is one of the strategic priorities for the development of the national economy, the main aspects of the processes of further reform of the taxation system of agricultural enterprises are distinguished. This will increase the efficiency of their activities, improve the financial condition and develop agricultural production in Ukraine. As a result, this will have a positive impact on the increase in tax revenues to budgets of all levels and reduce attempts to evade taxation.

The collapse of the international price of crude oil in 2015 and its attendant negative consequences on government fiscal capacity and development efforts re-echoed the need for Nigerians to return to agriculture as the surest means of conserving foreign exchange and revamping productive capacity. Within this context, this paper deploys the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) econometric methodology to investigate the impact of Nigeria’s trade policy and infrastructural development on agricultural value added. Findings show that in the long run Nigeria’s trade liberalization policy is a disincentive to the growth of the agricultural sector value added, while key components of infrastructure (roads, telecommunications, and electricity consumption) had a significant relationship with the agricultural sector. We advocate guided trade liberalization wherein, while embracing the principles of conventional trade deregulation, the government properly articulates the weakness of the economy’s productive structure and encourage farmers and local producers to attain maturity. Specifically, the current ban on some selected food items should be consolidated, without which Nigeria would continue to be a net food importer. Goveronment might consider studying and implementing the African Development Bank’s Infrastructure Action Plan for Nigeria.

The article considers the peculiarities of the formation of intersectoral relations in the agro-food complex of the country, taking into account their impact on the creation of value added by type of economic activity. The need to ensure the principle of equivalent intersectoral exchange and components that contribute to the increase of value added has been proved. It is established that during 2010-2018 the value of gross agricultural output in the prices of the reporting year increased 4.6 times, but in comparative prices in 2016 there was an increase of only 1.41 times, which is evidence of the impact of inflation. It is determined that the share of the processing industry in 2010-2018 in the structure of gross domestic product decreased by 5.8%, which is an unfavorable factor in terms of opportunities for value added. There was an increase in the share of agri-food exports in the structure of total exports compared to 2018 by 5 percentage points, the largest increase in supplies of crop products, which occurred due to the imbalance of relations between producers and processors of agricultural products. It is estimated that during 2010-2018 in agricultural enterprises gross value added increased 6 times, in households - 3.4 times. It is substantiated that there is an increase in the volume of unearned gross value added of business entities in the field of agriculture during the study period from the violation of the equivalence of intersectoral relations, which exacerbates the crisis in the industry. It is established that in basic prices the volumes of production of gross value added of the food industry increased for the period of 2000-2018 almost in 1,7 times, and with use of a deflator only by 50%. The growth of the share of GVA in trade in the overall structure of gross value added is proved, which indicates the strengthening of its role in the formation of value added of agri-food. The calculation of the change in the value of airborne forces using the deflator proves a slight increase, which suggests the effect of inflation on the value of the indicator. It is generalized that unfavorable conditions for the formation of gross value added due to inequality of exchange with the food industry and trade have been created for agriculture, which requires the introduction of the process of regulating the formation of gross value added of the agricultural sector. Keywords: intersectoral relations, agri-food chain, value added, agriculture, food industry, trade.

This report aims to analyze the impact of state grants upon the effectiveness efficiency of the enterprises in the Agricultural sector. The presence/absence of the correlation between the “received state grants - financial results from the activity of the agricultural enterprises” was studied. The efficiency of agricultural enterprises is expressed through the indicators of profitability and productivity. The empirical data for a period of 10 years 2008 – 2017 were shown in the study. The main activities of the surveyed enterprises are crop, livestock and combined - crop-livestock. Based on the results obtained, it is expected that the receipt of grants will have a positive influence on the performance of enterprises in the agricultural sector, measured by indicators of effectiveness and productivity. The following research hypotheses have been proved: the positive effect of the grant is more obvious in larger agricultural enterprises, which have higher productivity and profitability compared to small and medium-sized farms; agricultural enterprises which receive grants and are characterized by higher investment activity and are also characterized by higher innovation activity; based on the predominant number of crop enterprises, it is assumed that this type of activity leads to the achievement of higher financial results as a result of the activity of the agricultural enterprises; the age of the enterprises, expressed through the years of their activity, contributes significantly to higher profitability and productivity of the carried out activity.

The article studies the role of marketing management in the activity of agricultural enterprises. The agricultural sector is one of the key sectors of the Ukrainian economy, the core component of which is agricultural production. The findings of the article show the fact that a significant number of agricultural enterprises are unprofitable, with their share in the total number of enterprises accounting for 13.3%. Their performance largely depends on the impact of the extremely complex, dynamic and uncertain environment. The article suggests that only the businesses possessing the ability of adequate adjustment to the environment with taking precautions against negative effects timely and using opportunities the fullest ensure their competitiveness and profitability of their activity in the long run. The article determines marketing management tools to be relevant for ensuring successful operation of agricultural enterprises under modern conditions, for there is a need to find new approaches to managing enterprise activities. The article reveals the essence of marketing management; offers the interpretations of the concepts of "marketing management" and "management of marketing" given by the Ukrainian scientists and foreign researchers; and studies the difference between them. The article suggests that marketing management is a broader concept than management of marketing due to the fact that it is management of all general and individual functions of enterprise, as well as all divisions of enterprise on the basis of marketing. Marketing management considers marketing and management inseparably - they also mutually penetrate and complement each other. The main goal of marketing management is to increase profitability of enterprise by achieving maximum customer satisfaction. Based on the generalization of different views of scientists, the main stages of a marketing management process at agricultural enterprise are identified and characterized, including analysis of internal and external environment, selection of target market segments, marketing strategy formation, marketing complex development, organizational structure construction, marketing management program formation and marketing management control and analysis. The process of marketing management at agricultural enterprise contains a number of specific procedures aimed at research and formation of the demand of target consumers and comprehensive satisfaction of their needs. The findings of the research prove that the use of marketing management tools will help ensure the market orientation of agricultural enterprise, which provides a focus on success, timely adaptation to the environment, gaining a leading position in the market, providing competitive advantage.

The purpose of this article is to investigate the current state and dynamics of technical, energy capacities, labor resources and wages in Ukrainian agricultural enterprises, the impact of these indicators on efficiency of agricultural production, indicators of development and competitiveness of products on the domestic and foreign markets. The moral and physical deterioration of the equipment available at the farms is determined, which does not contribute to the increase of labor productivity and to obtaining consistently high economic results. On the basis of the dynamics of the analyzed statistical data, the problem of providing agricultural producers with labor resources was confirmed against the background of deepening of depopulation processes in the countryside, which led to the deterioration of quantitative and qualitative characteristics of human resources. Indicators of development and production rates of the agro-industrial complex of Ukraine have been investigated, that showed a low level of innovation implementation. Mathematical formalization of the relationship between the dynamics of changes in the gross value added indicators and the volume of sales of agricultural products is carried out. Based on the analysis of innovative activity indicators in the agricultural sector of Ukraine and the consistent assessment of the adequacy of linear and nonlinear pair equations, the model specification is presented, which is presented in the form of linear pair regression, which confirms the existence of a direct link between changes in the volume of sales in the agrarian sector.

Abstract Subject and purpose of work: Analysis of the innovative development trends of the agricultural sector in the Visegrad Group countries in 1995–2019. Investigation of the impact of innovation on value added to GDP by the sector and the patent activity. Materials and methods: Secondary data used in the current research were taken from Eurostat, World Bank and European Patent Office databases. They were analyzed by applying OLS models and Granger causality tests. Results: First, composition of R&D expenses in each Visegrad country was examined. Then its relationship to agricultural GDP and the number of the patents granted was tested by means of OLS models. Forecasting the relationship between variables examined was carried out by running Granger causality tests. Conclusions: There was a constant growth in agricultural innovation activity investment from 1995 to 2019. Nevertheless, the countries examined have not yet reached the EU’s objective concerning the R&D intensities. Innovation activity had a positive impact on the value added to GDP by agriculture and on the number of the patents granted.

Introduction. During 2014–2017 VAT electronic invoicing was adopted in Ukraine, which allows for the automatic exchange of tax data between taxpayers and tax authorities. It was estimated the positive impact of e-invoicing reform on gross sales and purchases, tax liabilities across all firms, tax compliance etc. Purpose. The purpose of the article is to study the impact of VAT e-invoicing on a fiscal efficiency of the tax. Methodological approaches to understand the essence and nature of the taxation of spending under the conditions of an innovative digital trend in society can be used to implement a fair fiscal policy in Ukraine. Methods. The author used scientific methods such as abstraction, deduction, comparison, analysis, systematization and others. It was used statistical data, data of tax authorities, data of the State Treasury Service of Ukraine. Results. It was established that e-invoicing in Ukraine increases VAT refund and improves its mechanism firstly. On the other hand, digital technologies positive effect on tax collection for imported goods and services in Ukraine. Despite that, the fiscal efficiency of VAT hasn`t increased. Conclusions. The lack of a positive impact of e- reform on value added tax collection in Ukraine was revealed. The main factors causing fiscal VAT dysfunction in Ukraine are: a significant shadow economy, the sale of goods and services to end-users using a simplified tax system, tax benefits for the rapidly growing agricultural sector, non-taxation of electronic goods and services. Digital tools, e-invoicing system should be supplemented by other reforms to improve revenue mobilization, enhance compliance.
