LOGISTIC MANAGEMENT OF MATERIAL AND TECHNICAL SUPPORT OF PRODUCTION ACTIVITY OF AGRICULTURAL ENTERPRISES

Abstract

Introduction. Today, one of the most difficult and insufficiently resolved issues is cost optimization in all parts of the supply chain and improving the management of logistical support of agricultural enterprises. With the transformation of economic relations improving the efficiency of production activities of agricultural enterprises on the principles of logistics can be achieved by choosing the optimal model of organization of the process of material and technical supply of the enterprise. Methods. Various methods such as monographic, graphic and statistical groupings are used to accomplish these tasks – to analyze the current state of agricultural production, to determine the influence of factors on the level of efficiency of use of material and technical base; selective – for a detailed survey of individual agricultural producers on the analysis of the dynamics and structure of material working capital and material costs of production; abstract-logical, calculation-constructive and optimization – at substantiation of directions of improvement of the organization of material and technical supply for agricultural producers. Results. It has been found out that for most agricultural enterprises, regardless of the size and direction of production specialization a significant increase in their value have recently seen. This increase is caused by the increase in the cost of inputs of industrial and agricultural production, as well as the methods of estimating the production inventory. It also has been found that reducing these costs by 10% will increase the profit of the company by 10-20%. Resource management system should focus on ensuring the balance of available material resources and production needs in them, as well as create conditions for timely and quality implementation of production plans, improving logistics, reducing costs and improving the consumer properties of finished products. Discussion. In order to form an effective logistics system for managing agricultural enterprises' inventories, there is a need to develop a standard model of logistics management, focused on strengthening the control over the process of logistics and improving the sustainability and balanced complex development of enterprises to change in a changing external environment. Improving the organization, planning and regulation of supply activities will lead to the optimal provision of resources for the needs of agricultural enterprises.
