The article is concerned with studying the problems of legal regulation of the level of food provision for the population of Ukraine. The norms of both the legislative and by-law acts regulating food security and food provision, as well as the work of scholars who studied this problem before, were examined. Food provision for the population of Ukraine can be defined as the State-based providing citizens of Ukraine with access to food of proper quality in the amount sufficient for the normal functioning of the human body and preservation of its health. This concept is closely related to the concept of food security. Food security is a state of physical provision by the main food groups of the appropriate level of quality and safety, as well as the forming of the State food reserve not lower than the officially established limit norm. The level of food provision for the population of Ukraine should meet the needs of citizens in a sufficient amount of food of proper quality. The normative legal acts regulating the level of food provision for the population of Ukraine can be divided into the following groups: defining requirements for the safety and quality of food products; consolidating the legal status of food producers; carrying out legislative regulation of the legal status of agricultural land; establishing measures of the State support for food producers; implementing the State regulation of imports of agricultural products; intended for legal regulation of wholesale and retail trade in foods; ensuring the State regulation of food prices; determining standards of the subsistence minimum for the citizens of Ukraine. Proposals on amendments to the Law of Ukraine «On subsistence minimum» to ensure an adequate level of food provision for the population of Ukraine are formulated.

The article highlights the issue of legislative consolidation and implementation of the powers of public authorities and other entitiesin the field of port dues in Ukraine. The imperfection of the legal support of management activities in this area is manifested in thefact that special legislation in the legal mechanism of port dues provides for the presence of a specially authorized body – the nationalcommission for state regulation in the field of transport. Such a commission should ensure the establishment of the rates of port fees,approval of the methodology for their calculation and control over the targeted use of funds from such fees. At present, the absence ofa national commission, as well as the absence of a legislative act that determines the legal basis of its activities, leads to inadequate provisionof the port collection process by the state. This is claimed, in particular, in the contradictions in determining the legal nature ofport dues, the lack of justification for their rates, as well as the lack of mechanisms to control the targeted use of funds from such payments.Due to the fact that the laws do not contain a provision stipulating that the procedure for organizing the activities of a national commission is determined by a separate special law, there is also the problem of uncertainty about the legal status of such a commission.According to the current legislation, the legal basis for the activities of the national commission in the field of transport as a centralexecutive body must be determined in accordance with the legislation on central executive bodies, namely: at the level of the relevantregulation approved by the Cabinet of Ministers.

Theoretical and applied research of the features of the legal status of the subjects of civil law remains debatable today. Doctrinal and legislative analysis of this subject points to unresolved issues in this area. In particular, the provision on defining the state as a party to civil law remains controversial. There is no consensus on the definition of individuals and legal entities as subjects of civil law among scholars. Furthermore, the legal regulation of certain types of entities is somewhat unsystematic and chaotic. This is largely due to the insufficient development of theoretical issues related to the subjects of civil law. The above issues determine the relevance of the study of the features of the legal status of subjects of civil law. The purpose of the study is to investigate the features of the legal status of subjects of civil law based on doctrinal and legislative analysis. The study is based on a systematic approach, which lies in studying a complex system of relationships between subjects of civil law. Furthermore, the study is based on the laws and principles of dialectics, which contribute to the study of the legal status of the subjects of civil law. Systemic and structural-functional analysis was used to comprehensively describe the legal status of subjects of civil law. The historical method contributed to the study of the evolution of research on the subjects of civil law. The formal legal method helped identify the special features of the provisions of regulations concerning the subjects of civil law. With the help of the comparative legal method, the study analysed the provisions of the Civil Code of Ukraine in terms of regulation of subjects of civil law and such regulation was compared with other countries. The study defined the concepts and types of subjects of civil law and considered the features of the legal status of individuals, legal entities, as well as the state as a special participant of civil law. Special attention was paid to the historical analysis of the development of approaches to the definition of subjects of law, starting with Roman law

The development of Ukrainian trade organizations in ordinary conditions is characterized by a high degree of inertia. Therefore, when situations that need to change arise, business strategies of market participants also change dramatically. Most often, such transformations are connected with external factors, such as the overall economic crisis, a sharp change in the state “rules of the game” in a particular sector of economic relations, as well as another external factor bond to the occurrence of new serious competitors. The development of organizational and economic mechanism to ensure the innovative development of retail trade, requires comprehensive consideration of internal and external factors of the studied system, the formation of strategies and programs to increase the innovation potential of its participants, their active interaction, increasing the use of innovative technologies, generating ideas and transformations. The article considers the issues related to the impact of business globalization processes on the transformation of business models of trade organizations and their operation strategy, as the degree of trade development indicates the standard of living and the state of the economy and society.

The article is devoted to the analysis of the current state of the legislation of Ukraine in the field of hydraulic reclamation of lands, as well as to highlight the prospects for the development of legal support of the outlined sphere of public relations. It is established that hydraulic reclamation of lands contributes to increasing soil fertility, increasing productivity and sustainability of agriculture, creating a guaranteed food fund of the state. However, in recent years, the effectiveness of hydraulic land reclamation is declining, due to a number of reasons of objective and subjective nature: insufficient logistics and shortcomings in the operation of hydraulic structures, deterioration of ecological and reclamation of agricultural land, lack of interest and responsibility land users. These factors include incomplete use of scientific developments, insufficient information support, imperfect and outdated legal framework. Given the great importance of hydraulic land reclamation for the development of agriculture in the country, these relations require proper legal regulation. It is concluded that the problems of combating desertification, resource and food security of the state in years with adverse weather conditions, water supply of agriculture cannot be solved only by organizing land reclamation, because this problem is complex. In order to achieve the goals of the Irrigation and Drainage Strategy in Ukraine for the period up to 2030, it is necessary to ensure effective interaction of legal, organizational, economic and financial mechanisms of irrigation and drainage restoration in Ukraine within the framework of the identified priority areas. Keywords: land reclamation, hydraulic land reclamation, land irrigation, land drainage, agricultural lands

The aim of the present research is to provide a comprehensive review about the current challenges related to food security and hidden hunger. Issues are presented according to major factors, such as growing population, changing dietary habits, water efficiency, climate change and volatile food prices. These factors were compiled from reports of major international organizations and from relevant scientific articles on the subject. Collecting the results and presenting them in an accessible manner may provide new insight for interested parties. Accessibility of data is extremely important, since food security and its drivers form a closely interconnected but extremely complex network, which requires coordinated problem solving to resolve issues. According to the results, the demand for growing agricultural products has been partly met by increasing cultivated land in recent decades. At the same time, there is serious competition for existing agricultural areas, which further limits the extension of agricultural land in addition to the natural constraints of land availability. Agricultural production needs to expand faster than population growth without further damage to the environment. The driving force behind development is sustainable intensive farming, which means the more effective utilization of agricultural land and water resources. Current global trends in food consumption are unsustainable, analyzed in terms of either public health, environmental impacts or socio-economic costs. The growing population should strive for sustainable food consumption, as social, environmental and health impacts are very important in this respect as well. To this end, the benefits of consuming foods that are less harmful to the environment during production are also to be emphasized in the scope of consumption policy and education related to nutrition as opposed to other food types, the production of which causes a major demand for raw materials.

The purpose of this work is to give a brief analysis of the legal status of spiritual Christians Molokans in the Russian Empire, following the dynamics of state legal regulation. The problem of the individual sectarian groups status remains little studied in both domestic and foreign literature, which determines its relevance. We use the following research methods: chronological, problem and analytical. We analyze the norms of administrative and criminal law in force in the 19th - early 20th centuries in the Russian Empire, which regulate the rights and obligations of subjects assigned to the Molokan sect. The analysis showed that the legal impact of the state on the Molokans was repressive and causal throughout most of the studied period. Only the reign of Alexander I was marked by a loyal attitude towards sectarians. After the revolutionary events of 1905, a number of civil and religious freedoms were granted to the Molokans, however, one cannot speak of the religious equality of all subjects during this period. After 1905, specialized acts were passed regulating the procedure for registering communities, holding conventions, organizing religious education, and other areas of public relations.
