FOREIGN AND RUSSIAN EXPERIENCE OF SUPPORT OF INVESTMENT PROJECTS IN THE AGRO-INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX

The problems of the state regulation of innovation processes in agriculture in Russia and a number of foreign countries are now one of the important areas for the study by economists, both practitioners and scientists. The economic crisis in recent years has affected the entire world economy and pointed to the need to improve investment policy at the micro and macro levels, i. e. on both the level of the economy of the country as a whole, and of individual industries and organizations. Ensuring Russia’s food security requires avoiding the use of directions for the production of agricultural products aimed at quantitative growth, towards the transition to innovative technologies based on a safe ecological basis. The article analyzes and classifies methods and directions of scientific research on agro‑industrial complex in a number of countries: China, Canada, the United States and the member states of the EEMP on the basis of the state support. In Russia, since 2017, the most promising type of state support for innovative and investment projects in the agro‑industrial complex of the regions is the provision of a consolidated subsidy that includes support for selected sub‑sectors of crop production and livestock production, including development of the traditional agricultural directions (“single” subsidy). The author gives data on the size and directions of the “single” subsidy in the context of individual regions and areas of use, examines the problems and ways to increase the effectiveness of this instrument of state support for the agro‑industrial complex for 2017–2018. International and Russian experience in solving problems of state support for agricultural production, fulfilling the task of ensuring global food security requires the effective use of all sources of financing of both public and private investments with a view to efficient and dynamic development of the agricultural sector.
