The article assesses the food security of municipalities in the Volgograd region based on indicators of self-sufficiency in agricultural products. It was proposed to adapt the methodology for calculating self-sufficiency indicators, replacing indicators of consumption of basic products in municipalities that are not publicly available with indicators of necessary production volumes in accordance with rational norms. This makes it possible to better assess the extent to which municipalities are able to provide the population with basic food supplies, as well as to identify bottlenecks in order to develop proposals to address them. The highest self-sufficiency ratios for the main types of products was noted in the municipalities of the North-Western agricultural region with most favourable conditions for agricultural activities and, conversely, the lowest figures are typical for agricultural Zavolzhsky area – with the less favourable agricultural conditions.

The article examines the issues of improving trade and food security in the Arctic territories of the region in terms of the rapid development of mining projects and processing of ores of non-ferrous metals, oil, gas transportation and the development of new logistics, including the Northern sea route and polar move. Analyzed manifested opportunities for the development of new practices of co-organization of business ecosystems integrated their use with a view to preserving traditions of indigenous peoples of the North, weak coupling areas and the high significance of the projects. The hypothesis is tested that the most successful for the development of such territories will be the formation of cooperative-network business ecosystems in relation to the goals and objectives of socio-economic development, in the cooperation of the resources of the state, business and the population. The possibilities of cooperation of digital technology resources of large corporations, the state and local communities for the implementation of new interactions for the sustainable development of territories are shown. The approaches implemented in the article can be used in research and practical projects for the development of sparsely populated, loosely connected territories of new development.

Self Sufficiency

Agriculture plays a major role in ensuring the existence of humanity. Today, the agricultural industry is playing an increasingly important role as farmers not only supply food to the world's population but also provide some people with jobs, particularly in rural areas, and protect and develop the rural landscape, without which we cannot imagine our world. Food production is one of the most important prerequisites for agriculture, yet the problem is whether the agricultural output in Latvia is able to meet the demand for food by the country's population in relation to the main food groups. The research aims to examine the self-sufficiency of agricultural products in Latvia. The research is based on annual agricultural reports and statistics for the period of 2011-2018 provided by the Rural Support Service. The key research results reveal that the output significantly exceeds consumption for some food groups, yet there are some agricultural products that highly depend on import.

The paper evaluates the level of competition on the vegetable market. Based on the analysis of the production development trends and resource potential, dynamics and ratio of export and import of agricultural products, including vegetables are presented; dynamics of self-sufficiency ratio of these products is studied; challenges of food security and competitive advantages of Georgian vegetables are identified.The article concludes that the country has a significant potential for exporting vegetables both to the countries of Europe and Middle East. The paper discusses the factors that hinder export of vegetables; in addition, the ways for reducing dependency on seasonality, opportunities for the development of modern greenhouses and mechanisms for supplying goods to customers all year round are suggested.On the basis of analyzing the level of competition on the vegetable market, vegetable business is considered as monopolistic. In addition, it is calculated that, currently, local vegetables products account for only 75% of the market.The paper evaluates the outcomes of high market power caused by monopoly in vegetable business; the impact of market power on pricing mechanism and the welfare of population is determined. In accordance with the problems identified, conclusions are made and recommendations for solving these problems are suggested.

The article considers socio-economic and socio-biological aspects of the Russian Food Security Doctrine, approved on January 21, 2020. The need to monitor Russia's food security is due to significant changes in “the country's socio-economic development, the emergence of new risks and threats to food security caused by economic sanctions imposed in 2014 by a number of Western countries against our country, the openness of the national food market” in connection with the accession to the World Trade Organization, and the deepening integration within the EAEU. The article examines modern approaches to the definition of state food security. Certain provisions of the Doctrine of Food Security of the Russian Federation are assessed, the analysis of food security in Russia in terms of self-sufficiency, economic and physical availability of food was carried out on the basis of statistical data. Food security in Russia has been achieved for the main items of food products, which is confirmed by the results of the analysis performed. A similar positive trend in the development of our country is confirmed by the estimates of foreign researchers based on the results of the Global Food Security Index monitoring. A comparative analysis of the diet of the population of Russia and the Arkhangelsk and Murmansk Oblasts is given. The work focuses on socio-biological risk factors for food security in the Arctic region of Russia.

The findings of the Study of Child Health Service clearly indicate the need for (1) the strengthening of pediatric training in medical schools so that all doctors, not only specialists, may be thoroughly prepared to care for children and (2) the development of systems of decentralized training and rural extension services so that better medical care may be available in outlying areas. The Committee proposes: 1. The visit pediatric departments and arrange meetings of pediatric educators in order to provide opportunity for discussion of the information collected during the Study in relation to content, curriculum and technics of teaching. 2. To Study and evaluate decentralized systems of pediatric education and hospital services. Rotation of hospital residents, fellows or other physicians-in-training through periods of service in outlying community hospitals affiliated with the teaching center, brings the skills and services of medical centers to the very areas where deficiencies in medical care have been shown to exist. Such decentralization of teaching and service also helps the general practitioner in rural areas to keep abreast of the new advances in medicine. A compilation of the experiences of systems already in operation should prove a valuable guide for definitive planning and not only raise the standards of pediatric education but also bring immediate improvement of care to children. 3. To keep a current roster of approved pediatric residencies and postgraduate courses. 4. To make available to the AMA the findings of the study and, without prejudice to the justification of federal grants for pediatric education, hold in abeyance action to seek federal aid pending current action of the AMA to raise necessary funds from other sources. 5. To continue the collection and analysis of data and assist state chairmen in the completion of their reports and the development of state programs for the improvement of child health. 6. To assist the Rheumatic Fever Committee to evaluate state and local rheumatic fever programs. 7. To recommend a committee to promote pediatric nursing education.

Increasing Demand

Amid the progressing growth in the world's population, changing climate conditions, and increasing demand, food production transforms to ensure food security for the mankind. On the national level, the concept of food security is defined as an economic and agro-industrial capacity of a country, which allows the people consuming environmentally friendly and healthy food products on a continuing basis, at reasonable prices, and above the scientifically based nutrition threshold. In circumpolar territories, the people are especially vulnerable to food and nutrition insecurity due to a number of reasons, including severe climate, underdevelopment of local agricultural production, heavy reliance on imported food, higher nutrition requirements, among others. This chapter discusses the potential of legume-based food products to contribute to the improvement of food and nutrition security in northern communities.

Security Issues

Organic agriculture is a promising form of management in which the preservation of the natural foundations of life and natural processes is the determining factor in ensuring food security and sustainable development. Until recently, organic farming has been considered as something related to the traditional regions of agricultural production. However, raising food security issues make people look for new opportunities even in the severe conditions of the polar regions. In the High North, food security issues are complemented by specific challenges: climate, fragile environment, remoteness, and way of life of indigenous people. In the chapter, the author discusses the potential of organic farming as a solution to the food insecurity problem in the northern areas. The approaches to organic production management and establishment and running of an organic farm are studied. The author concludes that a green turn to more organic farming is a promising step towards food security and sustainable development of rural areas in the Arctic.
