The state and contradictions of the development of the agricultural sector of the national economy are investigated. Challenges at the micro-, macro- and global levels for the agricultural sector in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic have been identified. It is noted that the main problems for the domestic agricultural sector in a pandemic were: reducing the purchasing power of the population, limiting the functioning of agri-food markets during quarantine, complicating the logistics of agricultural products. It is established that changes in the markets of countries that are major importers of agricultural products from Ukraine (China, India, the EU, Turkey, Egypt) in a pandemic will have the greatest impact on the development of Ukraine’s agricultural sector. It is concluded that among all sectors of the national economy, agriculture is the least affected by quarantine restrictions. It is shown that small and medium-sized farms suffer the greatest losses in a pandemic. The tasks facing agricultural enterprises and the state in the conditions of a pandemic are determined. The strategic directions of agricultural policy in Ukraine are indicated.

The implementation of state programs for the development of agro-industrial and fisheries complexes with the provision of state support to organizations ensured the achievement of the criteria for food security in Russia. At the same time, further growth in production, export development and competitiveness can only be achieved if the existing gaps in various industries are eliminated, provided that the enterprises that make up the industrial core of agricultural and fishing production are developed on a new technical and technological basis. In order to further develop the production of new types of healthy food products, the state must take measures to reduce poverty in order to expand the total demand for food products in the country.

The issue of food security is still relevant, especially in the context of a pandemic and an economic crisis. However, along with the physical and economic availability of food, the issue of food compliance with quality and safety standards has come to the fore. The transition of many countries to the production of genetically modified products affects the health of the population and the future generation. Therefore, the main direction of agricultural policy should be to support organic producers.
