Abstract

The article examines methodological approaches to assessing the competitiveness (efficiency) of directions for the developing organic production based on current ideas of agricultural scientific thought about sustainable development, with the use of existing foreign experience, as well as to substantiating and formulating conceptual proposals for developing the particular regional market. The article analyzes the situation, approaches and possibilities of regulating the production of organic plant growing in foreign countries, and the implementation of positive experience with enactment of the Law of the Russian Federation “On organic products and on amendments to certain legislative acts of the Russian Federation” and adhering to the requirements of the interstate standard GOST 33980-2016 “Organic products. Rules for production, processing, labeling and sale”, as well as scientific substantiation of conceptual proposals for the future development of production and the functioning of the market for these products. The process of forming a system of organic crop production (farming) is considered as an integral element in the agro-industrial system of the region and the country. The fundamental principles are the development and implementation of incentives for the production of organic products that ensure the environmental food safety. The specific directions and rates of subsidies used to stimulate the development of organic crop production and the possibility of their application in the region were also investigated, applied in the implementation of the program in the Austrian Republic “ÖPUL”. The structure of agricultural production in the region demonstrates the high economic potential of citizens’ private households in organic farming. An assessment of the productivity of cultivation of major crops in the region by categories of farms has been carried out. The advantages of small-scale farming in the development of organic crop production are confirmed by the studied experience of the Republic of Austria.
