РОЛЬ ЦЕНТРАЛЬНО-ЧЕРНОЗЕМНОГО РЕГИОНА В АГРАРНОЙ ЭКОНОМИКЕ РОССИИ

Abstract

With the aim of developing the national economy in the Russian Federation, economic regionalization has been widely used, which contributes to increasing the economic efficiency of regulating the productive forces in the country. The aim of the study is to assess the place and role of the Central Black Earth region in the economy of the agro-industrial complex of Russia. The research methodology is based on economic-statistical and correlation-regression analyzes. The scientific novelty of the research consists in identifying the patterns of development of the Central Black Earth region as an agrarian region. The practical significance of the study lies in the fact that taking into account the revealed patterns when developing strategies for the development of individual sectors of the agro-industrial complex will allow us to overcome the identified negative trend of reducing the production of certain types of agricultural products. The Central Black Earth region occupies a special place among 12 economic regions of Russia. It occupies no more than 1.0% of the total land area of the country, but ensures the production of 16.3% of agricultural products manufactured in the Russian Federation. The share of agricultural production in the gross regional product of the Central Black Earth region in 2019 remained 27.9%, which makes it possible to consider the Black Earth region as a region with a predominance of agaric production. An analysis of the indices of agricultural production in Russia and in the Central Black Earth region showed that the average growth index of agricultural production in 2011-2018 in the Central Black Earth region amounted to 116.1%, however, the dynamics of changes in these indices reflects a negative trend of deceleration, which can be described by a linear equation of the form y = -3.4867x + 131.8. Among the subjects of the Central Black Earth region, the maximum growth in the volume of agricultural production for 2005-2019. observed in the Belgorod region - 8.3 times, and the minimum in the Lipetsk region - 6.8 times
