Prospects of development of export of agricultural products and foodstuffs in the countries of the shanghai cooperation organization

Abstract

The article is devoted to the export of agricultural products and foodstuffs of Russia. The assumption of perspective development of the market of agricultural products and food, including organic products for the Russian agriculture, mechanisms of development of export-oriented agriculture are proposed. The research substantiates the resource potential of the Russian regions of agro-industrial direction, in particular, the Altai Territory, and the prospects for the expansion of the production of ecologically clean, organic agricultural products and foodstuffs, their exports in order to improve the nutrition quality of population not only in Russia, but also in other countries. In this regard, the development of multilateral commercial and economic cooperation among the countries of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), which includes China, Russia, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, India and Pakistan, is reasoned. In recent years, within the framework of this organization, the creation of a free trade zone, as well as infrastructure for trade and investment, is expected. It is economically feasible to attract business investments of these countries in the regions of Siberia and the Far East in order to create joint processing agro-industrial enterprises, including enterprises for advanced processing of grain in Altai. At the same time, it is necessary to conduct scientific research in the direction of substantiating strategic vectors and mechanisms for international cooperation in order to improve the quality of nutrition of population within individual countries and international associations.

Problems and outlook for marketable wheat grain production

Wheat grain contains proteins, fats, carbohydrates.…”
