Development of Import Substitution of Goods as a Factor of Ensuring Competitiveness of Amur Region

The article considers the level of self-sufficiency of the region with the main types of agricultural products. On the basis of the analysis of resources and use of basic food products in the Amur region, it is concluded that the in-house production of some food products does not meet the needs of their domestic consumption. A large part of the region 's food resources is formed by the import of goods from other regions of the country, including imports. The high dependence of the region 's economy on imports poses a threat to the food security of the region 's population. In order to reduce the dependence of the region 's economy on imports and crises in foreign commodity markets, as well as to increase the competitiveness of the Amur region in domestic and foreign markets, the article considers the need to develop a strategy for import substitution of both food and non-food products.
