A model for assessment of agricultural products provision at the level of regional food systems

Abstract

The article presents an overview of scientific publications on the provision of agricultural products, highlights the factors affecting the provision of food to the population. Emphasis is placed on studies devoted to the analysis of household resilience to food insecurity. A model for assessing the availability of agricultural products at the level of regional food systems is proposed. Based on the developed indicators, an assessment was made of the availability of agricultural products in the regions of the Southern Federal District (SFD) in 2020. The regions were ranked according to the level of provision with agricultural products. The leading regions of the SFD and the regions with the lowest level of provision of agricultural products were identified. The practical significance of the proposed assessment model lies in the use of the data obtained in determining the directions for the implementation of agri-food policy and the formation of measures to support the regions.
