THE STATE OF FORMATION OF THE GRAIN MARKET IN THE KRASNOYARSK REGION

Abstract

Agriculture forms the agro-food market, food and economic security of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, and the labor potential of rural are-as. In the formation of the food potential of the region, the receipt and processing of grain is important.In the Krasnoyarsk Territory, there is a decrease in the share of the rural population, which is accompanied by a decrease in the number of people employed in agricultural production. Sown area of cereals and leguminous crops from 2016 to 2020 averaged 980.8 thousand hectares, which is 52-53% of the total area under crops. Agricultural organizations are the main producers of grain and leguminous crops, they accounted for 72.0-81.0% of the gross harvest for 2017–2020, peasant (farm) enterprises provided 13.3-18.2% in the Krasnoyarsk Territory.The average per capita grain production in the Krasnoyarsk Territory in years with a high gross harvest is at the level of the average for the Russian Federation.In 2016, the average per capita grain production in the region was at the level of 821.03 kg, in 2017-2018 it was slightly higher than the lower limit of 668.35-675.05, in 2020 it was 930.92 kg. Grain im-port to gross harvest in 2016–2020 varies from 0.54% to 5.21%. The use of grain for processing (processed into flour, cereals, feed and other purposes) is characterized by an increase from 573.7 thousand tons in 2017 to 745.4 thousand tons in 2020, the annual increase over 3 years averaged 57.2 thousand tons. In the Krasnoyarsk Territory, it is necessary to increase the gross harvest of grain and leguminous crops in order to de-velop processing and provide the population with grain products of their own production and increase the volume of grain exports.
