The main results of the enterprises activities of the domestic oil and fat industry in 2020—2021 are shown in the articles. The profitability indicators of the production of oil crops of agricultural enterprises and farms of Ukraine by regions in 2020, the sown area under soybeans and sunflowers by regions of Ukraine for the 2021 harvest are studied, as well as the export of oilseeds in 2020/2021 compared to the 2019/2020 marketing year. It was emphasized that oilseed crops in Ukraine are traditionally the most profitable of all plant products, which is due to their high liquidity and demand from both exporters and the processing sector. export of vegetable oil and protein grist from Ukraine during the specified period was investigated, and the main reasons for changes were determined. The production of oil and fat products in Ukraine in 2020—2021 was analyzed, the the supply/demand balances of sunflower seeds and vegetable oil, the main trends in the functioning of the relevant market were determined and the priorities of future development were substantiated. The price policy of industry enterprises and the reasons for the increase in the price of oil were studied. The processsing capacities of the main types of oil crops, oil and deep processing products were evaluated, and the leaders of the respective markets were determined. It was emphasized that the further market development of oil and oil-fat products of Ukraine will take place in the direction of improving the quality of manufactured products in terms of their safety and expanding exports. This is due to the further application of international standards at the enterprises of the industry and their timely reaction to changes in the regulatory and legal framework. New changes in FSSC 22000 scheme (version 5.1) are highlighted.
The article examines theoretical and methodological approaches to the definition of the concept of "food security", but it is noted that there is no official interpretation of this concept at the legislative level. A number of criteria for assessing the level of food security are substantiated, the use of which is provided in aggregate, while the level of food security can be assessed as satisfactory based on the overall positive result of the evaluation criteria. The level of self-sufficiency in the main types of food in Ukraine was studied. It was determined that despite the fairly high level of self-sufficiency of Ukraine at the current stage of development, when consumption approaches rationally recommended norms, the state may face problems of significantly increasing food production. The level of sufficiency of food consumption was analyzed. It was found that Ukraine is significantly behind in 2020 both from rationally recommended consumption norms and from the level of consumption of economically developed countries of the world. An indicator of insufficiency (inferiority) of nutrition is proposed, which should be called the deficit of food consumption and calculated as the difference between the actual and rational levels of food consumption both for the entire set of food products and for its individual components. It was studied that the lack of consumption of high-calorie products such as meat and meat products, milk and dairy products, fish and fish products was mainly replaced by lowcalorie products, vegetables, namely potatoes and melon food crops. It is proposed to divide countries into groups depending on the level of caloric content of food consumption. The level of availability of food consumption was analyzed. The low price availability for the population of highcalorie food products was determined, as well as a significant percentage of expenses in the structure of household incomes for food products, which indicates the poverty of the country compared to European countries.
