Abstract
The article demonstrates that in the period between 2014, and 2016, the amount of grant investment in citizen science has decreased from 437.3 billion Rubles to 285.8 billion Rubles. Considering the level of domestic import dependency and the fall of the Russian currency, there has been nearly a doubling in the decrease in the actual financing of science in the past three years. The execution of the Russian President’s Order dated 7th May, 2012, № 597 suggests bringing the salary of scientists to 200% from the average salary in the region by 2018. However, already by 2014, the level of salaries in academic organizations of the Federal Agency of scientific organizations was only at 75% from the current expenses. Analysed are the key issues with distributing the state budget in the sector of generating scientific knowledge and the possible solutions to increase its efficiency. There are reviewed measures, suggested between 2014–2016, for optimizing the budget planning in the sphere of science. A conclusion is made about the complete discrepancy of suggested approaches to solving the identified problems.
