Abstract

The article is devoted to the problem of human resourcing in the agricultural sector of the economy which has been aggravated for a long time. The measures taken under the framework of the widespread implementation of the State Program for Development of Agriculture and Regulation of Agricultural Commodity Markets for 2013–2020 contribute to the modernization of the physical infrastructure, growth of agriculture, development of the village social assets, but they do not ensure abatement of depopulation of the rural population and the influx of skilled personnel into the agro-industrial complex. This is facilitated by the lack of a spatial aspect in the programs implemented, insufficient consideration of features, potential and possibilities of self-development of territories that reduces performance and effectiveness of municipal programs. A typology of municipalities of the Republic of Mordovia was carried out on the basis of “center – periphery”, demographic situation and economic specialization characteristics. The proposals on improving management of human resources reproduction in municipal territories, in particular, on creating a system for monitoring labor resources and selecting personnel using modern information technologies, as well as on improving the current system for assessing the effectiveness of local governmental activities are formulated.

Highlights

One of the goals of government policy in the Strategy for sustainable development of rural territories of the Russian Federation until 2030 is to increase the efficiency of agriculture and contribution of rural territories to the socio-economic development of the country
Despite the presence of a significant number of works devoted to the reproduction of human resources in the country's agro-industrial complex, the issues of the influence of spatial changes in the countryside and the government policy of sustainable development of rural areas and their impact on the processes of human capital formation remains insufficiently studied
The empirical information base of the study consists of statistical data of the Federal State Statistics Service and its territorial body for the Republic of Mordovia, program documents, analytical reports and reports of the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation, the Ministry of Economy of the Republic of Mordovia, the Ministry of Agriculture and Food of the Republic of Mordovia, analytical reports and reports of municipal authorities, research results of research institutes, analytical data presented in periodicals and on websites

Summary

Introduction

One of the goals of government policy in the Strategy for sustainable development of rural territories of the Russian Federation until 2030 is to increase the efficiency of agriculture and contribution of rural territories to the socio-economic development of the country. According to the officially accepted estimate, in 2017, the absolute poverty, which is determined by the population with per capita income below the minimum subsistence level, was in densely populated rural areas: up to 1 thousand inhabitants – 30.1 % (45 % of the rural population); 1 to 5 thousand people – 23.9 % (35 % of the rural population); over 5 thousand people – 25.7 % (20 % of the rural population) [4] This situation creates barriers to reproduction of labor resources in rural areas, replenishment of the country agro-industrial complex with highly qualified employees. Despite the presence of a significant number of works devoted to the reproduction of human resources in the country's agro-industrial complex, the issues of the influence of spatial changes in the countryside and the government policy of sustainable development of rural areas and their impact on the processes of human capital formation remains insufficiently studied. The main focus of this study is the substantiation of the types of rural territories by spatial, demographic and economic characteristics, priority tasks and tools for regulating the processes for reproduction of human resources for the agro-industrial complex
