Estimation issue of regional sustainable development in Ukraine is studied in the article. Methodical approach that allowed us to rate regions using calculated numbers on indices blocks of resource support, production, social development and ecology state was suggested. This allowed us to compare various components of sustainable development in regions perspective. Three regional clusters were established from the totality of the indices using the method of classification theory; this allows us to devise development scenarios and optimal functioning strategies of regional systems in Ukraine based on sustainable development principle.

The article aims to analyse livestock production factors and search for reserves to increase efficiency in achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The main tasks of Ukraine in the framework of achieving the SDGs and the role of livestock in this process are identified. The world experience of sustainable livestock development has proved its contribution to overcoming world hunger. The main trends in livestock production development in agricultural enterprises of Ukraine are identified. The influence of livestock intensification on the economic and social efficiency of livestock production is determined. Ways to increase the efficiency of livestock production through innovation are substantiated. The system of factors of production efficiency is expanded, taking into account its social aspects; in particular, it is shown that the development of livestock has a significant impact on the internal social efficiency of enterprises, affecting labour demand and wages. The strengthening of specialization and concentration in livestock in Ukraine is following the same global trends. The influence of livestock intensification on the formation of the ratio "costs - production results" is proved, which made it possible to identify the possibility of increasing profitability while rising production costs per head of livestock. Increasing the production intensity can lead to increased technological, economic, and social efficiency.

The purpose of the article is to reveal the possibilities of the dairy subcomplex in the implementation of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Research methods. Based on the dialectical method of cognition, general scientific research methods were used, namely: abstract-logical (for generalization and formulation of conclusions); monographic and system analysis (when studying the peculiarities of the development of the dairy subcomplex based on sustainability); comparative analysis (to compare global and national trends in achieving Sustainable Development Goals); graphic (for visual display of analysis results); as well as a systematic approach, analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction and others in the field of economic research. Research results. The modern world interpretation of the development of the dairy subcomplex with the use of the foundations of sustainable development is disclosed. Acting as a powerful tool for reducing poverty, overcoming hunger and ensuring human health, directing efforts to mitigate the negative impact on the environment, the dairy subcomplex provides consumers with dairy products in an economically beneficial, environmentally friendly and socially responsible for present and future generations. The role of the dairy subcomplex in the implementation of each of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals has been determined. Scientific novelty. Comparison of Sustainable Development Goals with the capabilities of the dairy subcomplex to guarantee food security, sustainable growth, and social development with the efficient use of natural resources has been further developed. Practical significance. The study results for implementation of sustainable development goals can be used by interested participants in the dairy subcomplex of Ukraine when developing strategic plans for their work both for the near and for a different perspective.

The purpose of the articles is to determine the socio-economic consequences of the raw material orientation of the agricultural sector of the domestic economy and to outline the priority areas of regulatory nature aimed at mitigating risks in the field of employment and the labor market in rural areas. Research methods. The research was based on general scientific and economic methods, the work of Ukrainian and foreign scientists on foreign trade, regulations, data from the State Statistics Service of Ukraine, electronic resources and other sources. Monographic and systematic approaches are used to analyze the structure of foreign trade in agri-food products. The principle of systems thinking helped to clarify the socio-economic consequences in the field of employment, labor market and rural migration. A number of techniques of abstract-logical tools made it possible to formulate intermediate final conclusions and determine conceptual ways of solving the problems raised. Research results. Considered from critical positions the commodity structure of Ukraine's foreign trade by groups 1-24 UCG FEA for 2000-2020. It was found that the main factors for increasing the export of raw materials were: liberalization of foreign trade relations, the termination of cooperative ties between agricultural production and processing enterprises and the creation of protectionist conditions for investment in agriculture. This was successfully used by the owners of speculative, financial, shadow, including foreign capital in the form of agricultural holdings with offshore jurisdictions. Thanks to the favorable situation in the global commodity markets, these organizations have significantly increased the production and export of grain crops, seeds and fruits of oilseeds and sunflower oil over two decades. During the same period, the export of finished food products has been reduced. If in 2000. The negative trade balance of the mentioned subgroup of goods amounted to 65 million, then according to the results of 2020 it increased to 392.2 million US dollars, or more than 6 times. Structural imbalances have led to the formation of a rental economic model in Ukraine, which has limited potential for further growth in added value. Ultimately, this negatively affects the well-being of households, social and labor relations, which have become especially aggravated in the field of employment, the labor market and population migration. In 2020, there were 1,783 thousand informally employed in rural areas, which amounted to 44.7% of the total in the economy and 36.2% of the total rural population aged 15-70. This is almost 4 times more than all employees in agriculture. Among the priority measures it is proposed: to revise the regulatory policy in the field of foreign trade in raw materials of this subgroup of goods; promoting the export of end-use products; stimulation of vertical and horizontal integration of agricultural producers, processors of raw materials and trade on mutually beneficial terms; creation of territorial production clusters; reanimation of all types of cooperation in rural areas from the standpoint of reducing risks to the balanced development of the agricultural sector and the country's economy. Scientific novelty. A comprehensive vision of the negative socio-economic consequences of the dominance of an archaic model of the economy, which in the conditions of a market turnover of rights to land plots, can become aggravated, has received further development. In contrast to the existing raw material exploitation of the agrarian sector and the rural population, the increase in the export of final consumption goods will contribute to the well-being of households and balanced rural development. Practical significance. Positioning the agricultural and food sector of Ukraine as a world leader in the export of end-use goods will contribute to solving the socio-economic problems of the rural population and balanced rural development.

Наведено результати маркетингового аналізу кон’юнктури ринку (кон’юнктурний аналіз) наукоємної продукції Прикарпатської ДСГДС. Встановлено, що серед закінчених наукових розробок установи сорти рослин займають провідні позиції, як за кількістю, так і за надходженням коштів від їх використання, а також рівнем захищеності. Здійснено на прикладі ріпаку, як модельного об’єкта кон’юнктурний аналіз наукоємної продукції установи. Виділено сегменти ринку сортів рослин в Україні. Визначено, що пропозиція сортів рослин ріпаку формується переважно комерційними компаніями, організаціями, фірмами, тобто переважає приватна селекція. Обґрунтовано необхідність переходу на рівень наскрізної координації, трансферу цілісних технологій і стандартизованих сировинних ресурсів, застосування в аналізі нових оціночних підходів та системи технологічного забезпечення.
