Abstract

Introduction. The progressive development of peasant farm enterprises requires further improvement of the methods of state financial support to completely fulfil the potential of peasant farm enterprises as the best tool in using budgetary funds allocated to improve the quality of life of the rural population. This article is based on the study conducted and aims to identify the resources of peasant farm enterprises to increase employment and incomes of the population, as well as to develop a system of priority measures for long-term state financial support. Materials and Methods. The study analyzed the official data from the territorial body of the Federal State Statistics Service in the Republic of Mordovia and the Ministry of Agriculture and Food of the Republic of Mordovia. To process the empirical material, economic and mathematical methods were used, as well as the those of comparison, groupings, and absolute differences. The set of methods used made it possible to characterize the dynamics and main trends in the development of peasant farm enterprises in the Republic of Mordovia, to study changes in their structure and specialization in terms of production concentration and efficiency, and also to assess the correlation between the amount of grants received and the volume of additional production. Results.
