Forming the production potential of dairy cattle breeding as a factor of sustainable development of food systems

Abstract

Sustainable development of food systems is a global challenge for both Russian and world economy. Within each country, the economic, social and environmental aspects of sustainability should be considered in symbiosis when forming conditions for the development of agricultural sectors. Dairy cattle breeding has always been one of the leading sub-sectors of agriculture, the prerogative of which is to provide the population with milk and dairy products in an amount that advises recommended consumption standards. Digital transformation of the sub-sector is considered as an element of the global project in the Ministry of Agriculture of Russia “Digital Agriculture”. The paper presents analytical materials on the level of self-sufficiency and economic availability of milk and dairy products in Russia as a whole, as well as the current state of the production potential of dairy cattle breeding in the Krasnoyarsk region. It was found that the loss of gross milk production due to a decrease in the number of cows compensates for the increase in productivity. It is noted that in Russia the agricultural industries are going through the next stage of serious technological changes, which is associated with the need to modernize production based on the use of information technologies, automation capabilities, digital technologies and platform solutions. This process helps to solve the main task – to ensure the sustainable development of food systems on the basis of increasing the production potential of industries.
