Problems of spatial development of the agro-industrial complex of the Krasnoyarsk Region

Abstract

The spatial development of the agro-industrial complex of the Krasnoyarsk region is very diverse and uneven. This is due to the introduction of high-tech industries in individual territories, which increases their investment attractiveness, and state subsidies on the principle of supporting growth points. The identification of territories requiring a special regime of economic incentives for the purpose of equalizing territorial heterogeneity is proposed to be typified. Generalization of long-term studies of agricultural economists allowed authors to include the natural and climatic conditions and the level of social and economic development, which are characterized by such a set of indicators as (i) the hydrothermal coefficient to the main factors of differentiation of territories; (ii) provision of plants with heat; (iii) soil characteristics; profit per average annual employee; profitability of agricultural production; state support per one agricultural organization; (iv) profit per 1 rub. of state support; (v) level of remuneration of workers; and (vi) rural population growth. Approbation of calculations based on data from 36 districts of the Krasnoyarsk region with the use of an integral indicator, as the average value of their score, made it possible to conclude that 8 districts of the region were in a low socio-economic development group and needed to develop measures to stimulate entrepreneurial initiative with the participation of government funding.
