Summary: | Abstract In this article, the author examines various aspects of the impact of the agricultural and food potential of one of the largest regions of Russia, the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), on higher living standards of the local population and the qualitative improvement of their life in this harsh Northern climate. The situation in providing for this Russian region has changed dramatically in recent years: if previously only quantitative and a few qualitative parameters were considered to assess the level of demand for food products, today the criteria have changed significantly. Suppliers are required not only to provide a certain range of food products, but also to increase the requirements for the quality component. The author clearly proves that support for agricultural producers and farms, infrastructure development of rural areas is a global trend of the last decade. These factors, in turn, contribute to stabilizing the socio-economic situation in the country as a whole. In addition, the food preferences and needs of citizens living in the Republic have recently changed: local agri-food products are more in demand. Balancing supplies from other regions and saturating the market with their own food is the main task in the field of state regulation of this area. In addition, local products are characterized by good biochemical parameters, and in terms of caloric content and mineralization, they correspond to a healthy diet for active life in the Far North. To study all these problems, the author needed to apply not only special economic methods, but also some cross-cutting methods that include a set of social, economic, and environmental methods. |
