The article is devoted to the study of such an important component of the competitiveness of the forestry complex as its production potential. To do this, the volume of harvested timber from felling for general use, indicators and structure of wood sales for export, the volume of wood residues in warehouses and the cost of sales of one impersonal m3 of wood are analyzed. In addition, the author examines the trends in the formation of appropriate forest infrastructure, which will help optimize the cost of transporting harvested timber as a result of saving fuel and lubricants and reducing the time of delivery of logging equipment to the main felling sites (forest formation and care). Negative factors of reduction of capital construction of various objects of forestry, ecological and social purpose are revealed, and also tendencies of decrease in level of updating of fixed assets of forest branch due to corresponding reduction of volumes of purchase of forestry and road-building technics, ecologically safe cars and mechanisms are investigated. The presented material presents the main reasons for the low level of competitiveness of the forest industry, in particular, among them there is a lack of investment and innovation processes; monopoly position of forestry entities in regional markets; inertia of the industry management system in the conditions of existing decentralization processes, residual principle of enterprise financing, export to foreign markets is characterized by raw materials of the industry without a significant share of value added, high share of completely depreciated fixed assets, etc. The author proposes the main directions of strengthening the competitiveness of the forestry complex through the introduction of a system of control over the quality and quantity of felling formation and care of the forest, which will increase the completeness of forest stands and the corresponding volumes of timber from felling; regulatory and legal support for the possibility of attracting investment resources to the industry and its modernization; formation of an effective financial and economic mechanism for financing forestry enterprises as a basis for investment and innovation development of a competitive forest industry.

During the Great Patriotic War, the forest industry of the Urals played an important role in the economy of the region and the Soviet Union. Based on the statistical data put into circulation by researcher A.A. Antoufiev, an analysis of the dynamics of the cost of production fixed assets and gross products in the forest industry of the Urals, including per worker, was undertaken. Due to the enemy’s seizure of part of the western territories of the country, thanks to the availability of forests available for operation, enterprises built and reconstructed in the years of the first five-year plans, equipment evacuation, and the fulfillment of defense orders, the share of this sector of the Urals in the production and value of the country’s forest industry increased. However, in the cost of gross products of the region, the share of the forest industry decreased due to the active development of engineering, metallurgy, and arms production. In the forest industry structure, the higher values of production funds and products per worker were in the pulp and paper and plywood industries, the lowest in the field of forest resources. Conclusions were made about an increase in the cost of funds in the Ural forest industry, a slight decrease in the cost of gross products, a lag in the actual labor productivity of workers from the indicators of industry in the region and the Soviet Union.

Abstract Globalisation has opened up economic opportunities for developing countries in the form of outflow of value-added services, low-cost raw materials , human resource skills, improved market access for their exports, efficiency gains in their economies through technology transfer and spill-over, and resource re-allocations. Consequently, various developing countries, including India, have increasingly begun to position themselves for greater participation in regional and global markets. It goes without saying that India needs to build its capacity for establishing linkages with global and regional markets for deriving the optimal benefits of engaging with the globalised world. This, in turn, depends on the creation of an efficient logistics system. For this purpose, most of the developed and emerging countries estimate logistics costs on a regular basis, and use performance indicators to measure the efficiency levels of logistics activities. Till now, no attempt has been made to estimate logistics cost of India by the official statistical organisation. Two estimate of logistics cost computed by private bodies are usually quoted when one refers to Indian estimate. However, the methodology of the two needs serious introspection. In this context, this paper makes an attempt to estimate logistics cost of India.

The new reality of the domestic socio-economic environment is an increase in the openness of the national economy – an increase in the share of foreign trade turnover in the structure of public production. Ukrainian society has an extremely pressing issue on its agenda – how to save a place in a group of countries between the center and the periphery, and not to get there into the periphery zone forever. The purpose of the article is to find out how the openness of the national economy influences the sustainable development of regional agro-food production. A positive consequence of increasing the openness of the national economy to the sustainable development of regional agro-food production is the increase in the access of Ukrainian farmers to foreign markets with high capacity. Increasing access to overseas markets enables Ukrainian producers to leverage their existing resources and maximize their revenue. An important result for the national economy of increasing access to foreign markets for domestic producers is the increase in foreign exchange earnings. The negative impact of increasing the openness of the national economy on regional agro-food production is as follows: increasing the risk of the Dutch disease in Ukrainian agriculture; over-exports of the agricultural raw materials (it causes unused reserves of increasing the share of value added by increasing the degree of processing and causing damage to the food security of the state); the development of monoculturalism, which has a negative impact on rural employment; increasing the risk of erosion and degradation of agricultural land. Keywords: sustainable development, agro-food production, opens economy, over-exports, raw materials, added value, food security, rural unemployment, soil destruction.

Ways to reduce fixed costs of manufacturing firms using digital technologies and organizational tools are considered. The company's activities are divided into four functional levels: production, supply, economic, and design and technology. The article concludes that in the conditions of increasingly large-scale digitalization of all spheres of the state, society and economy, their transparency will increase. This, on the one hand, makes it easier to copy successful business decisions, and, on the other hand, increases the supervisory and tax pressure. All this is reinforced by the inability of the world economy to expand its size due to its reaching the boundaries of the global market, which inevitably affects all regional markets. In this situation, we can expect a slowdown in the turnover of capital invested in fixed assets and their transformation into a source of losses. This may cause a flight from property, some signs of which are already visible at this time. The article examines the management of fixed costs in the digital economy. It is concluded that the main type of fixed costs will be the cost of such an element of fixed assets as a "Calculator", access to which will be open to all economic entities. This will lead to maximum openness of their business activities and force them to move to a "garage" economy. The main provisions and conclusions of the article can be used in scientific and educational activities when considering questions about the nature and trends of development of production companies.

Abstract North Carolina forest-sector foreign exports were quantified by applying an origin-of-production methodology that awarded the state a portion of national export value corresponding to its share of a US forest industry. A US$1.945 billion North Carolina forest export chain (FEC) was identified, producing forest industries, wholesalers, transporters, and port authorities. Contributions of the FEC were determined from a social accounting matrix in terms of output, value added, and employment. Port value multipliers were then calculated to provide context to the FEC’s contributions. Direct contributions were US$602.989 million of value added and 6,870 jobs based upon FEC activities of US$1.945 billion. Total FEC contributions were US$1.439 billion of value added and 16,640 jobs on sales across North Carolina of US$3.494 billion. The output and value-added port value multipliers indicated each US$1.000 million of FEC output and value added generated an additional US$800,000 and US$1.386 million in other industries, respectively, before leaving the state to purchase imported inputs. Each 1,000 FEC-dependent jobs supported an average of 1,420 jobs elsewhere in North Carolina’s economy. Information such as this provides policymakers an improved scope of the contributions driven by exporting to foreign markets.

The article is devoted to the study of the peculiarities of the formation of agri-food chains in foreign markets and the calculation of value added losses in export-import operations of agri-food. It is established that the share of the agricultural sector in the GDP of Ukraine is 10.2% at the lowest value added per employee 4801.4 dollars. USA. It is estimated that in 2010–2019, in the structure of Ukraine's exports, agricultural products provided 19% of foreign exchange earnings in 2011 and 40% in 2019, which is evidence of the strengthening of export positions of the studied sector of the economy in foreign markets. It was revealed that in 2019 the share of agri-food products was 44.3%, or 22.2 billion dollars. US, or increased by 19% compared to 2018, while total exports from the country during this period increased by only 6%. It is determined that in the structure of exports of agri-food products the share of plant products is 58%, and in the commodity structure of exports the largest share falls on cereals - 74%, as well as oilseeds - 20%. It is concluded that the export of agricultural food in 2010–2019 is formed by raw materials, while the value added of processed products - sunflower oil, poultry meat - is higher than that of grain. Threats to the functioning of agri-food supply chains to foreign markets caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and government actions of the world and Ukraine to ensure food security are systematized. It is substantiated that the structure of Ukraine's foreign trade is rational, as raw materials predominate in supplies to foreign markets, and technically complex products dominate in the structure of imports. It is estimated that the foreign trade balance of goods and services in 2019 is negative in the amount of 3.7 billion dollars, but improved by 2.5 billion dollars. relative to the 2018 figure. It is substantiated that in order to achieve a positive value of the foreign trade balance of Ukraine it is necessary to stimulate the development of food industries, ie products with high added value. It is analyzed that the increase in exports of agricultural raw materials leads to a shortfall in value added, and, consequently, the state budget loses significant revenues in the form of value added tax (processed agricultural products are subject to VAT on its exports), tax on profit, export duty (rate 18%, for the export of live farm animals). It was found that the value structure of agricultural imports is dominated by the group of "finished food products" (45%); the second position of agri-food imports is occupied by products of plant origin, the share of which is 31%; third - products of animal origin, whose share in the structure of imports is about 18%. It is suggested that state support instruments, such as VAT refunds, should only be used to stimulate high value-added industries. Key words: agri-food supply chains, export, import, foreign markets, value added.
