Summary
The object of the study is rural areas of Northwest Federal District in the development
dynamics context of the phenomena under consideration in other Russian Federation
regions. The subject of the study is problems of the rural areas and agrarian production
development in conditions of import substitution. Index method, territorial division of
labor and calculation of localization indices have been used in the research. Positive and
negative phenomena and development processes of the North-West Federal District rural
areas compared to other federal districts of the Russian Federation have been defined.
An internal heterogeneity has been revealed in Northwest Federal District.Regions with
positive dynamics of population, cultivated areas, level of rural unemployment, with
a favorable settlement structure and a high contribution to solving the country’s food
security problems have been determined. Regions with unfavorable indicators of rural
areas development have been identified. It has been determined that agro holdings are
the main contributors to the solution of the problem of import substitution in agriculture.
Aggregation of agricultural holdings by the method of absorption removes the owners
of their assets from rural areas.Activity of agro holdings contradicts with the solution
for the rural areas development. The contradictions arise due to competition for budget
subsidies, land areas, workplaces.
The problem might be decided by creation of agro holding companies from “the
bottom up” by local entrepreneurs and by creation of consumer agricultural cooperatives.
In this case new workplaces would be formed for rural population, business would be
“transparent”, added value would remain in rural areas and income level of villagers
would be increased. It has been revealed that the greatest contribution to the import
substitution problems solution in Northwest Federal District is made by the rural areas
of the Leningrad and Novgorod Regions, as well as by the Vologda Region (milk and
eggs) and the Pskov Region (milk and pork).
