QUANTITATIVE ASSESSMENT OF THE IMPACT OF STATE POLICY ON COMPETITIVENESS OF AGRICULTURE IN THE REPUBLIC OF ARMENIA

Abstract

It is impossible to get a comprehensive understanding of the impact of the factors determining the competitiveness of agriculture without a regression model and a quantitative assessment of that impact using econometric calculations, which allows to isolate the factors that have a greater or lesser impact. However, the range of result and factor indicators that have a statistical relationship with the competitiveness of the Republic's agriculture is not comprehensive (taking into account that not all of them may have such a relationship), which limits the possibilities of quantitative assessment of the joint impact of all factors on the said competitiveness. In this case, it is necessary to limit to the quantitative assessment of the impact of specific factors on individual characteristics of agricultural competitiveness. Taking into account the special role of the state policy factor in increasing the competitiveness of agriculture in terms of creating the necessary conditions and a favorable environment, the article highlighted and revealed the individual characteristics of the competitiveness of RA agriculture in the studied period: the value of the gross production of agriculture, the index of the volume of agricultural products, the productivity and commodity of agriculture. the statistical relationship between the level and the factor of budgetary allocations to agriculture considered as the bearer of the above-mentioned policy as a result of regression analysis. It made it possible to identify the characteristics of agricultural competitiveness on which the mentioned factor had more or less influence.
