Abstract

The Khabarovsk territory is the main forest industry region of the Far-Eastern federal district. The forest complex of the Khabarovsk territory, within the framework of the implementation of the "new model" of development of the Far-Eastern federal district, is a recipient of applied measures of the state policy. In addition, it is under the influence of a nationwide industrial policy aimed at increasing the production of high value added products. The purpose of the article is to study the results of implementation of the state policy measures for development of the forest complex of the Khabarovsk territory. The main instruments of the regional development policy (territories of advanced socio-economic development, the free port of Vladivostok, investment support for infrastructure) and industrial policy (subsidies, priority investment projects, quotas for the export of logs) are considered, the practice of their application in the forest complex of the region now is analyzed. It is shown that the influence of the listed public policy instruments is unequal in the strength of their impact, focus, and choice of preferences on the part of companies. It was revealed that, despite the applied regulatory measures, the parameters of the functioning of the forest complex of the Khabarovsk territory demonstrate instability, which is associated, among the other things, with the strong dependence of complex on the situation in the Chinese market. It is concluded that the state support is aimed at creating the production facilities and reaching the design capacity and does not apply to their achievement of design payback, which, given the instability of the situation, leads to their loss ratio and stoppage. In addition, it was revealed that state support instruments are used mainly by large companies and, as a rule, already have preferences from the government. For small businesses, there is no opportunity to use the instruments of state support, which leads to reduction in their number, and as a consequence to decrease in the special social role of the forest complex in the municipalities of the region.
