Estimation of the price policy of agricultural producers of foreign countries

The agro-industrial complex of any state is the basic branch of the economy that provides the population with food products. Its essence lies in the fact that it is physical, technological, political, political, political, political, political, political, political, political, political,

The mechanism of pricing for agricultural products, depending on the state policy, can be aimed at stimulating agricultural production, or protecting it from competition from foreign producers of agricultural products. In general, the policy of foreign countries in the field of ensuring competitiveness at a negative level, first of all, the negative phenomena inherent in modern economies. The main activities, for example, the European Union, focused on the integration of national economies, harmonization of macroeconomic policies, development of the agro-industrial complex and industry, technical regulation, coordinated financial and economic policies, development of domestic and foreign trade, customs cooperation, antitrust regulation and development [1].

With regard to the agro-industrial policy of the EU member states, create a unified agricultural policy within the European Union, the main objective of which is to ensure the subjects of agribusiness with a high standard of living; external and internal consumers - high-quality products, and, most importantly, the preservation of the agricultural heritage of the countries that are members of the European Union.

The structure of mutual relations in the field of foreign and mutual trade in agricultural products between the EU countries, the EEMP and Russia, as well as between Russia and the EU, which depends on the consequences of the Ukrainian crisis is temporary. The Common Agricultural Policy provides mainly for measures related to productive products, as well as for the expansion and intensification of value-added activities through subsidies.

Comparative and analyzing the state regulation in the agro-industrial complex of the Eurasian Economic Union and the European Union, it can be concluded that the main methods of agricultural regulation in the EAEC, given the relative limitations of available resources and the availability of an appropriate infrastructure for internal maintenance of economic stability of member states and their producers, and also the development of the agrarian sector with the organic development of economic activity in the first place th e Member States EAEC. In the European Union, the main set of measures aimed at limiting competition from non-EU commodity producers in the form of taxes, quotas, practical measures of prohibitive technical regulation, while encouraging national producers in the form of subsidies. One of the features of the EU agro-industrial market is also the significant impact of restrictive measures on agricultural production [2].

Considering the volume of production of foodstuffs and raw materials from the Stavropol Territory, it can be noted that in 2014 they were higher than the volumes of 2013 by 49.68%, amounting to 326.14 million dollars or 30.82% of the value of exports. The main option for printing out the aggregated group of goods was cereals, whose exports increased by 57.51%, to $ 279.83 million. The main consumers of cereals were Azerbaijan and Iran.

From the rest of the export products of the current year, casting of alcoholic and nonalcoholic products ($ 12.47 million) should be provided, which will be supplied to Ukraine, Turkmenistan and Azerbaijan; finished products of grain, flour ($ 10.35 million), the main consumers of which were Georgia, Azerbaijan, Armenia and Turkmenistan; Vegetables (6.41 million US dollars) of which Austria was the consumer; meat and edible meat by-products (5.09 million US dollars), the main consumers of which are Abkhazia, Kirghizia, Vietnam, Hong Kong and Liberia [2].

In general, according to the analyzed groups of goods of foreign commodity producers of agricultural products, it can be pointed out that there is no unambiguous price change for producers of foreign countries - the main partners of the producers of the Stavropol Territory. So, the prices for grain and leguminous crops have grown in Austria, Azerbaijan and Iran, but have considerably decreased at the German commodity producers. The cost of potatoes has decreased for all commodity producers, except for the producers of agricultural products of Iran.

Prices for vegetables of open and protected soil in Azerbaijan and Iran declined, while producers of Austria and Germany increased. Prices for vegetable oil increased among manufacturers of all foreign countries studied, except Germany, where the price decreased by almost 32%. Similar multidirectional dynamics of price changes are observed for the rest of the commodity groups.
