Agrarian-Construction Clusters of Post-Covid Rural Ontogenesis: Economic-Resource Reflection and Regulatory-Stimulating Sustainable Development Prioritization

Abstract

The article formulates the methodological principles, develops and tests the methods of evaluation, at the macro-and meso-economic levels, the appropriateness of state support for construction initiatives of enterprises of the agrarian-construction cluster based on ranking and biological classification of respective infrastructure projects, which -the methods differ from the existing ones by involving an additional criterial plurality in terms of the location of its implementation the availability of the economic-natural reserve, an impact of natural-anthropogenic factors with subsequent ranking of criteria by strength in order to make the respective decision at the territorial community's level. Moreover, a system of criteria includes both traditional (budgetary-financial and socio-economic) and ecologicalinfrastructural criteria, which are determinative in the algorithm of making a decision on state support of the implementation of village-saving projects by agrarian-construction clusters subject to the need for rural renovation and involving agricultural lands in a market model of their turnover. This has also allowed to extend an existing construct of catalyzation of mechanisms of state support (assistance) for agrarian-construction clusters, in general, and rural construction in the countryside, in particular, with national economic, social, food, construction and financial-budgetary priorities and capabilities of a specific rural territorial location incl. the same for further development of social dialogue institutions involving a public-private partnership.

Modern Foundations of Economics, Management and Tourism

“…The lack of legal regulation of the cluster organizing creation of products, the recognition of a cluster as a self-governing economic association of enterprises makes it impossible to spread existing and develop new, specialized state support programs to it. As a result, there are only isolated examples of the practical creation and functioning of agricultural clusters in Ukraine, which are mainly the initiative of commodity producers and are based on the experience they borrowed from the global cluster development practice [85][86] 8 . Thus, a feature of the formation of the agri-industrial complex development cluster model is the unification of agricultural production and all branches of the agrarian sphere to achieve the main taskmeeting the population needs with highquality, safe, affordable food, processing industryraw materials, increasing the profits of cluster participants and integration into the European economic space.…”
