ОРГАНИЗАЦИОННО-ЭКОНОМИЧЕСКИЕ АСПЕКТЫ КЛАСТЕРИЗАЦИИ АПК РОССИИ

Abstract

Increasing the efficiency and competitiveness of enterprises based on a cluster approach in the last decade has received wide coverage in scientific works, both foreign and Russian scientists. The purpose of the study: to study the dynamics, current state and trends in the development of agro-industrial clustering, to identify the main inhibitors and catalysts of the formation of cluster structures in the domestic agribusiness, to develop proposals for their activation. The article was prepared using the information and analytical materials of the federal and regional Ministries of Economic Development and Agriculture, the Russian and European Cluster Observatories, the works of foreign and domestic scientists on the topic under study. The following methods of scientific research were applied: statistical-economic, monographic, abstract-logical, calculation-constructive. It was revealed that at present active clustering processes are observed in various sectors of the economy and agro-industrial complex of Russia. However, of the many registered prospective cluster projects, only a few are implemented in practice, which is due to a number of organizational and economic reasons. The dominant inhibitors of the agro-industrial clustering process were identified, including: methodological shortcomings, irrational bifurcation of powers at the public and private levels, imperfection of the regulatory framework, the absence of a single cluster construction mechanism and models of cluster functioning at the regional level. In order to eliminate these shortcomings, a mechanism and procedure for the formation, as well as an organizational structure for the functioning of agro-industrial clusters, were proposed. The use of developments in the creation of cluster-type structures will ensure the convergence of interests of participating enterprises, the harmonization of their interactions, the optimization of costs and commodity handling processes, which, in turn, will lead to a significant reduction in the cost of products.
