Влияние региональных аспектов на систему обеспечения продовольственной безопасности страны

Abstract

The research is aimed at studying methodological approaches to classifying the subjects of the Russian Federation according to the level of food security based on food balance indicators. The main hypothesis is the relationship between the level of food security in the region and regional variation, which is due to natural, climatic and territorial features. As a result of the study the considered approaches to the classification of the subjects of the Russian Federation were divided into four main groups. The first approach takes into account the geographical features of the regions, the second one considers the coefficient of basic food supply, the third approach takes into account the established norms of the consumer basket and the norms of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, the fourth approach includes a number of qualitative indicators. Based on the above the author's approach to classifying regions according to the level of food balance was proposed, which included four clusters and ten types of regions. The classification is based on such parameters as the food balance, the level of production, the share of exports and imports.
