scholarly journals Potential of Cooperation of the EAEU Countries in the Perspective of Digitalization of the Agri-Food Sector

The paper assesses the potential of cooperation between Russia and the countries participating in the EAEU in the agri-food sector. It is revealed that the share of agricultural organizations and food industry enterprises participating in joint projects to carry out research and development is much lower than in other industries. The weak interest of Russian enterprises in innovation activity has been noted. At the same time, in the agri-food sector, certain changes have emerged in the area of intensification of innovation activity. To this end, the study assessed the potential for cooperation in innovation in the agri-food sector. The reasons for the low rate of the digital transformation of the agri-food sector and the factors involved in these processes have been analyzed.

All the time itisnecessary to in crease the demand of industrial enterprises and business for theresults of intellectual work and research and development, and to build a system of cooperation between educational, scientific, scientific and technical, research and development institutions and representatives of the real sector of the economy, which in the future willin crease the innovative activity of Ukrainian enterprises. In the country little attentionis paid to the development and financing of science, the formation of the market of intellectual products, the necessary cooperation between the state and entre preneur ship, should create a favor able economic and legal environment for the development of thein tellectual property market, support for the development of innovative entrepreneur ship by the state, improvement of the system of commercialization of the results of intellectual activity at all stages of the innovation process.

Company growth depends on competitiveness and innovation, which are largely contingent on the scale and scope of research and development undertaken. In the new EU financial framework for 2014-2020, R&D funding is contingent on compliance with research planned with regional smart specialisations. The article reviews the literature on factors in competitiveness, as well as the importance of smart specialisation in shaping the development of the food sector in Poland. The main objective of the article is to present the role and importance of smart specialisation for companies in the food industry seeking to build a competitive position.

AbstractIn the past few decades, there have been remarkable advances in our knowledge of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and synthesizing methods. AuNPs have become increasingly important in biomedical and industrial applications. As a newly implemented method, AuNPs are being used in nanopackaging industries for their therapeutic and antibacterial characteristics as well as their inert and nontoxic nature. As with other NPs, AuNPs have privileges and disadvantages when utilized in the food sector, yet a significant body of research has shown that, due to the specific nontoxic characteristics, AuNPs could be used to address other NP flaws. In this mini review, we present synthesizing methods, food industry applications, and mechanisms of action of gold nanoparticles. Regarding the investigations, gold nanoparticles can play a major role to reduce microbial load in foodstuff and therefore can be implemented in food packaging as an effective approach.

Crisis, in whatever form it takes, is a challenge for modern business. The challenge lies in the fact that a company is prepared to balance the difficult conditions that are created, while preserving their business interest and efficiency. Thus, companies focus only on their perceived fixed bases, those that are in the internal environment such as the human capital. The need for better human resource management is more urgent than ever, and the burden on the business department is particularly great. The aim of this qualitative research is to highlight the strategies that were developed by agri-food companies in Greece and contribute to the maintenance and motivation of employees in the context of economic crisis. The methodology of this study is based on in depth interviews that were conducted in focus group discussion. Eleven companies from the agri-food sector in the region of Central Greece participated in the research. The executives highlighted three different strategies that were developed by agri-food companies in Greece, which focused on internal mobility, training and appraisal performance. Companies had to face different difficulties to use these strategies, but most of them proved that they can face their weaknesses and apply these strategies in a turbulent period like a financial crisis.

The article is aimed at forming a methodical approach to the assessment of tendencies in production, sales and organization of consumption of food products and services, which includes all the components of the food sector and allows to conduct a comprehensive assessment of tendencies in its development. The proposed methodical approach includes assessment of the status and dynamics of food supply to the population, assessment of the status and dynamics of indicators of agricultural enterprises, food industry, trade in foods, restaurant economy and assessment of the factors that influence the development of the food sector. The use of the proposed methodical approach allows to reasonably make decisions on the development of a strategy for the development of food sector enterprises. The conducted studies have shown that in Ukraine as a whole and in its regions in particular in recent years there have been positive tendencies in the production, sale and organization of consumption of food products and services. At this, sales of foods by enterprises of both agriculture and food industry is much higher than by retail enterprises of food products and restaurant enterprises, which indicates the sufficient provision with food products to the financially reliable demand of the population of Ukraine. Prospects for further research in this direction are the development of methodical instrumentarium for assessing the effectiveness of management of food sector enterprises, which will be adapted to modern conditions for the implementation of specific managerial decisions.

The main goal of this paper was to examine relationships between markups, output, and food inflation in the Polish food sector in the period 2000–2013. Levels of the monopolistic markups were calculated as an inversed labor share in the output value with a modification regarding overhead labor, whereas value of production was used as an indicator of sectorial business cycle. In order to analyze the relationships in question such methods as cross-correlations, Granger test, and VAR analysis were employed. It turned out that markups have behaved procyclically regarding the sectorial business cycle, and can be regarded as a lagged indicator for output and as a predictor for food inflation. A positive impact of the markups on the food inflation is likely to be one of the reasons for relatively weak joint changes of output and inflation, what may affect responses of the Polish economy to the monetary policy measures.
