SOWN AREAS AS A FACTOR IN THE FORMATION OF FOOD INDEPENDENCE OF THE JEWISH AUTONOMOUS REGION

Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the impact of the ratio of sown areas and own production of agricultural products on the food independence of the Jewish Autonomous Region in 2005-2020. Material and methods. The authors, in carrying out a comparative analysis of the dynamic series on the indicators of the land area by type of land and indicators of agricultural production, used the economic-statistical method, the method of analysis and synthesis, as well as methods of vertical and horizontal analysis. Results. The data obtained indicate a decrease in the indicators of agricultural production on the territory of the subject. It is determined that the indicators of agricultural areas remain unchanged. At the same time, in 2020 there is a significant increase in the sown areas from 87.2 thousand hectares to 136.1 thousand hectares. However, when considering the indicators of own production of agricultural products, there is clearly a steady trend, with a general decline in indicators in 2020 compared with 2005, which forms a low level of food independence
