Methodological Approaches to the Formation of an Effective Mechanism for Managing Economic Activity of Agricultural Enterprises: Future Aspects

Abstract

The aim of the article is to study methodological approaches to the formation of an effective mechanism for managing economic activity of agricultural enterprises, taking into account the forecast values of efficiency of such activity in the process of developing an appropriate strategy contributing to adequate scenario planning. The views of individual researchers on defining “economic activity”, “mechanism of economic activity of agricultural enterprises” are considered, and some common features and differences between the concepts of “economic activity” and “business activity” are indicated. The components of the mechanism of economic activity of agricultural enterprises are identified. Furthermore, there highlighted the main directions of its improvement in the context of efficiency and the need to introduce the concept of “future efficiency” of economic activity with the rationale for taking it into account in making and implementing management decisions in the process of such activity. The author proposes a functional consolidated model for assessing and regulating the level of efficiency of economic activity (future efficiency) of agricultural enterprises for the purpose of forecasting in the process of SEE management. The main elements of the strategy of economic activity of agricultural enterprises are determined. Prospects for further research are associated with finding ways to improve the values of future efficiency in the context of SEE management, which should take into account the established characteristic features of the above mentioned efficiency as an institution of the national economy in the system of modern socio-economic relations.
