Introduction. The essence of the category “resource potential” and its composition regarding the agrarian sphere of production are considered in the article. The main components of the resource potential of agricultural produc-tion under various methodological concepts are: land resources, labor resources, material and technical resources, finan-cial and information resources. It is determined that the agrarian economy of Ukraine has significant resource potential. The place of Ukraine in the world agribusiness rating was investigated. The modern indicator of value added per 1 worker in the agricultural economy has proved that Ukraine occupies 67 in the world. Results. The main components of the business environment of the national agrarian economy from the positions of international assessments have been analyzed. The most problematic elements of the business environment of the agrarian economy today are seed production, transportation, fertilizers and information and communication technolo-gies. The analysis of the quantitative and value composition of the resource potential of the agrarian economy is car-ried out. The most problematic trends in the modern agricultural economy are characterized by such components as labor resources and fixed capital. The key problems of formation, use and valuation of the resource potential of the agrarian economy are identified here. The lack market value of agricultural land and the land market today is one of the main problems in assessing the resource potential of the agricultural economy. The modern trends in the level of effectiveness of the use of the resource potential of the agricultural sector of production in the context of the main indicators of the effectiveness of the development of the national economy are considered. The efficiency level of the agrarian economy over the past few years is significantly higher compared to other sectors and types of economic activity in Ukraine. Key words: resource potential, productive resources, agrarian economy, agrarian sphere, effectiveness, efficien-cy, national economy.

The article reveals and summarizes the main contradictions of the development of agriculture sector in the national economy on the principles of sustainability and inclusiveness, based on the analysis of theoretical assumptions and trends and from an evolutionary point of view. The theoretical-methodological basis of the study is a dialectical method of scientific views analysis and transdisciplinary positions relevant to the issues of contradictions of sustainable and inclusive development of the agricultural economy. The method of comparison was used in the analysis of the dynamics of agricultural production on the example of farming in Ukraine. Analysis of the dynamics of the output indicator of farms during 2017-2019, correlated with their number allows to state the increase in productivity of farms. The main contradiction is the uneven regional development of the agricultural economy. One of the main reasons for this is insufficient state support for the development of small enterprises in the agricultural sector of the national economy. The concept of sustainable and inclusive development of society considers the possibility of balancing economic, social and environmental factors, with the status of socium and a person as a central factor. However, in practice, when implementing mechanisms to support the improvement of the general situation at the state level and its particular territories, as a rule, there is a problem of instability of those or others components of sustainable development. According to the economic potential theory, the latter, in the context of its increase and scientifically sound use, provided a well-adjusted system of economic potential management, is a reliable basis, including to ensure environmentally sustainable development of the agricultural sector. In general, the relationship between environmental, energy and food conflicts is also quite controversial: rising prices for raw materials, especially on oil, affect the price of biomass - and further, the price of food. The situation is complicated by the high level of corruption. People are forced to migrate or organize hunger protests. All this indicates the possibility of escalation in the near future of conflicts related to such an important resource as agricultural land. As a result of a comprehensive study of the impact on sustainable and inclusive development of the agricultural economy of social and economic-environmental contradictions as a deep root cause of potential conflicts between opposing economic and environmental aspects of agricultural production, as well as economic-environmental conflicts - situations of conflict between the environment and, above all, interests concerning natural resources, and subjects of agrarian economy, the following factors were analyzed and generalized: globalization, political, technological, ecological, in particular, climatic, etc. The main conclusion is that socio-ecological and economic relations, on which modern agricultural production is based, require consideration of the whole set of relevant pro-conflict factors, with its further regulation in the implementation of the concept of sustainable and inclusive development of society and national economy. Keywords: agrarian economy, inclusive development, sustainability, contradictions, conflict

Research background: Our research is framed by the new institutional theory reflected in: the property rights theory [1] and transfer of ownership of goods and the transaction costs theory that might be associated with economic exchange theory. Overall, we need to consider occurrence of deglobalization and the COVID-19 crisis, which recently not just decelerated growth of the world economy, but even put it to a halt; one might conclude that (de)globalization [2] and the COVID-19 crisis are behind the new “global” [3]. Purpose of the article: We investigate the impact of connectivity between selected countries by cargo maritime transport on costs to import of 1 TEU container transporting a specific commodity in a specific transportation corridor. Methods: Our research is based on a regression analysis creating a model of UNCTAD statistics; the Liner shipping connectivity index (LSCI); and the WEF Global Competitiveness Index (GCI). We consider the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) that converges with the global maritime transportation corridor between (Southeast) Asia/China – Northwestern Europe/EU (the North Sea Region) in this respect, bearing in mind the 2017 round of the International Comparison Program recently released by the World Bank. Findings & Value added: Our research reveals correlation of the costs to import of 1 TEU container vis-à-vis the quality and intensity of liner shipping connections and the quality of the business environment determining the transaction costs in import price. Value added of the paper is our focus on sustainable development reinvigorated by prestigious international organisations and European Union institutions.

The systematization of European experience in the formation of food safety through research and analysis of European regulations and strategies. The key principles of the European Green Deal on food safety were analyzed, namely the implementation of the principle of sustainability of food systems and policies for adaptation to climate change. The levels of food safety of Ukraine and Poland were compared according to the main components: food availability, access to food, food safety conditions. According to the results of a sociological study, the level of food safety of Ukraine in terms of the introduction of the land market was assessed. A portrait of a landowner was formed, and the presence of a land plot affects the state of food supply. Based on the analysis of the main provisions of the European Green Deal and food safety policy (on the example of Poland), the areas of increasing the level of food safety in Ukraine were identified: completion of land reform and lifting the moratorium on the sale of agricultural land; ensuring the production of value-added products; adaptation to climate change, development, and implementation of a national program for rural development.

The article revealed the essence of the company's strategies for entering the foreign market and strategic management. At present, the company has spent much more time in such areas as sales and marketing, increasing revenues than inherent in the management of production to reduce costs. As consumer needs and demands spread rapidly around the world, they become extremely individualized and markets are very diverse in structure; the management of the enterprise, if it seeks to succeed in the market, must strictly adhere to the rule: to focus primarily on increasing revenue, rather than reducing costs. The result of the study is the classification of the strategy according to the following criteria: - market control (proximity to the consumer, the ability to respond quickly to changing needs, control trends in supply and demand); - flexibility (the ability to quickly and adequately adapt activities to changing elements of the business environment); - resource requirements (the need to have a certain amount of financial, material and labor resources for the organization and development of activities); - risk (threat of unforeseen loss of expected profit, income or property, funds in connection with accidental changes in the conditions of economic activity or other circumstances). According to the results of the analysis of theoretical principles, it was found that it is important when developing a strategy to take into account the specifics of the industry in which the company operates. To enter the company it is necessary to analyze the world market of similar products, to conduct a competitive analysis of the industry, to analyze the internal state of the company, as well as the development strategy in the Ukrainian market, to identify mission, goals and objectives. The article identifies the main problems that an enterprise may face when entering the foreign market, formulate and evaluate strategic alternatives to the company's development and analyze the results obtained during the study, and then suggest ways to develop the company in the foreign market. Thus, at this time it is necessary for management to correctly choose the necessary strategy for companies to enter the foreign market, which will allow them to generate income.

The article examines current trends in world markets. The effects of coronavirus (COVID-19) on the global business environment have been identified. Thus, the World Bank Group highlights the uneven recovery of the economy due to coronavirus (COVID-19), in addition, it is expected that the level of world GDP in 2021 will be 3.2 % lower than expected before the pandemic, and GDP per capita among many emerging and developed economies, COVID-19 peaks are expected to remain below peak levels for a long time to come. It has been found that the rate of recovery in countries may also differ between generations and income groups, as they have been unevenly affected by the economic downturn. Therefore, businesses will need to monitor the macroeconomic environment and carefully assess the revenue and expenditure dynamics of their target consumer groups in order to propose appropriate pricing strategies and the value of their products and services. Emerging economies continue to move from key industries to higher value-added activities in the global supply chain. In addition, global trade and multinational businesses are subject to tighter controls as consumers increasingly demand more transparent and socially responsible supply chains. The pandemic shocked the global supply chain and exposed its fragility. In 2020, world exports fell by 7.2 % in US dollars, while supply bottlenecks affected various industries — from retail to manufacturing. Governments are now seeking to tighten control over critical supplies such as medicines and medical equipment, while companies are seeking to increase sustainability in supply chains. It is investigated that the uneven impacts of the pandemic itself, the pace of economic recovery vary widely in different countries. For example, the UK economy has experienced the worst downturn in 300 years, shrinking by almost 10 %. The impact on jobs was also unprecedented and ten times worse than during the global financial crisis of 2009, when in 2020 the world lost 114 million jobs. The state of world trade in general, as well as the volume and dynamics of export-import operations in Ukraine are analyzed. Thus, the total turnover in Ukraine in 2020 decreased by 6.5 % compared to the previous year. Imports decreased in 2020 by 10.3 % less than in 2019.
