Role of agricultural processing for food security of the Trans-Baikal Territory

Abstract

The article is devoted to the assessment of the impact of the food industry of the Trans-Baikal territory on the food security of the region. A study based on the actual state of the industry showed that its development is impossible without improving the situation in agriculture. The presence of a large volume of products imported into the Trans-Baikal Territory indicates a strong dependence of its economy on external supplies. A partial solution of the problem is possible on condition of creation of agro-holdings in the region covering the full cycle production of food products from cultivation of raw materials to reception of final product.
