Abstract: The article presents a method of quantitative measurement of food losses in agricultural production in Russia based on verifiable statistical data and the results of its application. The relevance of the study is related to the limited resources for agricultural production and the growing demand for food, considering climate change, leading to an increase in the risks of extreme weather events and epidemics. The estimates of losses presented in Russia are either based on the calculation of food resource balanc… Show more

Abstract. The article is devoted to the issues of assessing the prospects for the development of horticultural non-profit partnerships of citizens. Including the identification of opportunities to increase the production of vegetables from this category of agricultural producers to meet the needs of their families and the sale of existing surpluses of certain types of these products. The purpose of the study is to develop a methodological approach to assessing the prospects of vegetable growing in horticultural non-profit partnerships of citizens and its testing in the conditions of the region to identify the possibility of its use in other territories. Methods. In the course of the study, methods of comparison, statistical and economic, sociological research, analysis and synthesis were applied. The scientific novelty of this study lies in the development of a methodological approach to assessing the prospects of vegetable production in horticultural non-profit partnerships of citizens. As a research tool, we have developed a questionnaire for interviewing members of horticultural non-profit partnerships. The scientific result is the testing of the developed methodological approach on the materials of the Irkutsk region, which made it possible to identify factors hindering the growth of vegetable production in the studied category of agricultural producers: insufficient support of horticultural associations from the authorities, poor quality of seed material, zoning to the climatic conditions of the region, difficulties in selling surplus products. In addition, based on the results of the approbation, recommendations have been developed aimed at increasing the production of vegetables in horticultural associations. The study was conducted within the framework of the scientific laboratory “Economic Research” on the basis of the Department of Economics and Accounting of the Irkutsk State Agrarian University named after A. A. Ezhevsky. The methodological approach can be used in other regions. The article may be useful to authorities at all levels when developing programs to support this category of agricultural producers.

This paper provides a quantitative assessment of the impact of losses on specific aspects of food security and environmental sustainability. The lack of full information on the benefits of food loss reduction destimulates developing appropriate effective measures at the public level and in the private sector. The study covers losses generated at the initial stages of the food supply chain, including agricultural production and primary processing. Methodological assessments are based on works of foreign authors, recommendations of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and domestic methodological developments in this area. The results indicate that at the primary stages of the food supply chain, food losses generate a relatively small amount of greenhouse gas emissions, so their reduction in order to lower the carbon footprint is not as effective as at the stage of retail and household consumption. However, preventing losses in agriculture contributes to the creation of additional volumes of food, which can be directed to the consumption of vulnerable groups of population. At the same time, the consequences of loss reduction vary greatly depending on the type of product
