Development of the State Support for Agriculture in Krasnoyarsk Region

Abstract

1. Introduction Krasnoyarsk region took the fourth place among the subjects of the Siberian Federal District by agricultural production in 2013. The share of the region's agricultural production is 13.6% in the Siberian Federal District and 1.8% in the Russian Federation. However, the development of agriculture in the region is inhibited by a number of problems, including those related to industry features. In these circumstances, the state support plays an increasing role, because internal sources of financing are not enough for the further development of agricultural producers. Dairy cattle's breeding plays an important role both in the Russian Federation and in Krasnoyarsk region. At the same time, this industry differs from other livestock breeding industries due to its inherent features: dairy cows are involved in all production cycles and are the main means of production; deficiencies in feeding cows affect animal productivity; milk production sharply reduces in the face of protein shortage; loss of products is significant at violation of at least one link in the production cycle, it reduces the quality of the products (Makarets L.I. and Makarets M.N., 2002). The region takes the 2nd place among the subjects of the Siberian Federal District by milk production. Milk accounts for almost 16% of the value of the gross output of the region. However, in Krasnoyark region, the provision of the population by own milk production is 62% of the medical standards developed by the Institute of Nutrition. Therefore, the active participation of the state in the form of financial support for agricultural producers becomes essential. A significant contribution to the study of the current state and issues of state support for agriculture, particularly dairy cattle breeding, was made by such prominent scientists as Baryshnikov N.G., Bespakhotny G.V., Vernigor N.F., Gamidov G.G., Gataulin A.M., Dordzhieva O., Kuznetsova E., Miguel Yu.A., Mikhailyuk O.N., Nechayev V.I., Pavlova G.S., Stadnik A.T., Syomin A.N., Sidorenko V., Shelkovnikov S.A. Their works served as the scientific basis for the research (Baryshnikov N.G., 2008; Bespakhotny G.V., 2006; Vernigor N.F., 2014; Gamidov G.G., 2007; Gataulin A.M., 2006; Dordzhieva O., 2006; Kuznetsova E., 2009; Miguel Yu.A., 2011; Mikhailyuk O.N., 2009; Nechayev V.I., 2010; Pavlova G.S., 2014, Stadnik A.T., 2014 ; Syomin A.N., 2007; Sidorenko V., 2006; Shelkovnikov S.A., 2010). 2. Methodology The following research methods were used in the work: abstract logical, monographic, economic and statistical, computational and constructive. A review of existing approaches to assessing the level of state support and determination of its standards revealed their significant shortcomings; comprehensive indicators assessing the level of profitability of the resources used in agriculture were derived using abstract logical method, with and without taking into account the state support. Dynamics of the main indicators characterizing the development of the dairy cattle breeding industry in Krasnoyarsk region was revealed using the statistical method of research. Levels of profitability in order to achieve by milk producers simple (the level of profitability is 15%), extensive (40) and innovation (60 and over) reproduction was determined on the basis of the monographic method of the research. Application of computational and constructive method allowed determining the standards of subsidies in the context of efficiency of cows according to the level of reproduction using the developed economic and statistical model. 3. Outcomes The concept of state support for agriculture was suggested, which, in contrast to the existing definitions, is understood as a set of forms, methods and mechanisms of state influence aimed to ensure a more complete and efficient use of resources of agricultural organizations to achieve extensive reproduction and satisfaction of the population with quality agricultural products of their own production. …
