THE SYSTEMIC NATURE OF FOOD SECURITY IN RUSSIA
The systemic nature of food security in Russia, manifested in conditions of dependence on its national, economic and environmental security, as well as from globalization, due to the country's entry into the WTO, requires a comprehensive approach to solving this problem. This article considers the problems of food security of Russia in the system of agribusiness. The principle of social responsibility can be implemented on the basis of an international agreement that meets the socio-economic interests of countries in the WTO. The basis of this agreement “share distribution” means achieving optimal import quotas of agricultural products between countries. As a criterion of optimality is adopted, the maximum level of food self-sufficiency for main agricultural products produced in a particular country. This will serve as the main reference in determining the import shares of agricultural products in each country that is a member of the WTO. The principle of social responsibility can be implemented on the basis of an international agreement that meets the socioeconomic interests of countries in the WTO. The basis of this agreement “share distribution” means achieving optimal import quotas of agricultural products between countries. In this case, the allocation mechanism must consider the totality of the socio-economic and natural factors, on the basis of this distribution. In fact, it refers to the process of optimizing the import share of the food market at the international level, based on common interests food interactions. As optimality criterion could be the maximum level of food self-sufficiency for main agricultural products produced in a particular country. The results of the calculations can serve as the basic guide in determining the import shares of agricultural products in each country that is a member of the WTO.
