The article is devoted to the generalization and systematization of theoretical, methodological and practical aspects of assessing the economic security of a regional intersectoral complex. The object of the study is the forest sector as a set of traditional industries and types of economic activity of a separate Russian region united by consistent technological, production, and financial links in the use and reproduction of forest resources. The theoretical and methodological basis of the study was the analysis of scientific works of Russian and foreign scientists devoted to the study of economic security and methodological support for its assessment, modeling of the forest sector, and forest management. The research used methods of multidimensional comparative analysis, as well as traditional methods of processing statistical information. The result of the study is the development of a methodology for rating the economic security of a regional industrial complex and its practical testing in relation to the forest sector of the economy of the subjects of the Ural Federal District. The proposed methodology is universal and, provided that the key provisions are preserved, can be used to assess the economic security of other socio-economic systems.

Organic agriculture is a dynamically developing area of the global agro-industrial complex. Global climate problems and the depletion of natural resources across the planet dictate the need to review the food production technologies used. Excessive intensification of agricultural production through soil mineralization and fertilization, hormonal stimulation of animal and plant growth has led to the deterioration of water, soil, air quality and overall health. Therefore, the problem of reducing the anthropogenic impact on the environment is the main trend of implementing the principles of organic production. The paper developed recommendations for the strategic development of the Russian market of organic production within the framework of the current EAEU agreement. Conclusions were made on the expansion of instruments of state incentives for the development of organic agricultural production in a changing world economic relations and integration.

Modern society today is reconsidering its development strategy in the light of changing environmental conditions. The global climatic changes observed over the last 30-40 years require not just a careful attitude toward nature and resources, but a comprehensive review of the technologies of production and processing of raw materials and resources. The consumer strategy that has dominated society for the past 2-3 centuries must be completely transformed into a new philosophy of sustainable development of economic systems and growth of food supply for the growing world population. Deteriorating production conditions and resource depletion will not allow a growing humanity to develop at the same speed without a sustainable food base. Therefore, the task of increasing food security becomes a priority in the strategy for the development of the national economy.
