Abstract

-Improving the competitiveness of the country and regions' agriculture is a solution to the problems of its further development. It should be noted that a sustainable and stable development of agriculture can be achieved only through the government support measures implementation. Insurance premiums State subsidization is the financial instrument, which does not contradict the World Trade Organization requirements. At present, the State-supported agricultural insurance conditions do not provide adequate interest among agricultural producers. The article is devoted to consideration of major aspects of agricultural insurance in the context of global transformations. We determined the reducing demand for Statesupported agricultural insurance and made an attempt to systematize the causes behind this phenomenon. The study of indicators of agricultural insurance in the Volgograd region was carried out using time series analysis. Special attention is given to a new instrument in agricultural insurance such as a "unified" subsidy. The result of destabilizing conditions in the organization of the system of agricultural insurance in the context of granting subsidies was a radical deterioration in the market. The unadapted subsidy system has resulted in substantial agricultural insurance volumes fall. The main problems in the allocation of subsidies from the federal budget to the regions are identified. We have considered a plausible course of agricultural insurance development.

The need for such participation is reinforced by the latest trends in economy. Export orientation, digitalization, the coronavirus pandemic reinforce the political and economic causes of state intervention. The purpose of this work is to consider key methods and priorities of state support for agriculture and the possibility of their improvement and expansion under the influence of new requirements. Having studied the mechanism of concessional lending to agriculture, it was concluded that it was effective and identified some problems that served as a basis for identifying opportunities for its further improvement. It was concluded that the state plays a dominant role in the development of small forms of agribusiness and the expansion of agricultural export potential. The unique features of the COVID-19 pandemic, which faced not only the world but also Russian economy, have opened up opportunities and created threats to agricultural development. The coronavirus pandemic has given a powerful impetus to the massive introduction of digital technologies.
