“…(All-Russian..., 2010). Традиционно буряты, как и коренные малочисленные народы Севера, более вовлечены в скотоводство, тогда как этнически некоренное население (например русские) предпочитают сочетать растениеводство и животноводство (Boldanov et al, 2018;Tulokhonov, 2011). Помимо аграрной деятельности, в которую было вовлечено коренное население, оленеводство, рыболовство и охота были широко распространены (Tulokhonov, 2011).…”

“…Также Бурятия представляет собой пример региона, где исторически сложились традиционные формы сельскохозяйственного землепользования. Согласно неофициальным данным и различным литературным источникам можно предположить, что традиционно буряты и малочисленные народы Севера более склонны к ведению скотоводства (Bogdanov, 2014;Boldanov et al, 2018), тогда как представители других этнических групп более склонны к возделыванию сельскохозяйственных культур, но при этом занимаются также и животноводством (Zandarev, 2014).…”

Despite the looming land scarcity suited for agricultural expansion, farmland abandonment is widespread globally. The recultivation of some abandoned farmlands could unlock the untapped agricultural potential. Yet, little is known about the determinants of recultivation. To better understand the behavioral intentions of farmers regarding the recultivation of abandoned lands, we concentrated on the Buryat Republic in Russia, where agricultural land abandonment is widespread and farmers with different ethnicities carry out diverse agricultural practices. We conducted 149 face-to-face interviews with the farmers in the Buryat Republic in 2018 and filled a structured questionnaire on farm’s and farmers’ socioeconomic characteristics, perceived corruption, and farmers’ behavioral intentions regarding expected land use. We modeled the intention of recultivation with the Bayesian networks. The Bayesian networks analysis showed that perceived corruption was considered to be a barrier to recultivation. Our study also showed that non-Buryat ethnic and young farmers are more likely to recultivate abandoned land. Abandoned farmlands without or with a low degree of afforestation were preferred for recultivation. In sum, our study showed how behavioral aspects of political trust, the farm’s and farmer’s characteristics, in combination with regional and locational characteristics, may shape farmers’ decisions on land use. The results provide an important ground to assess regional land-use policies, which should foster the recultivation of abandoned lands while preserving ecosystem services in the global hotspots of farmland abandonment, such as Russia

“…The promising specialization of the inter-territorial agroecological cluster in the Baikal region may be organic livestock farming, the main elements of which do not contradict the implementation of a unique regional mission. Concentration of cattle in small and medium-sized farms, a historical pastoral model based on nomadic livestock production and promoting organic produce in numerous farms, which provide employment and preservation of ethnoecological traditions of adaptive environmental management, the need to take into account environmental externality and social benefits in assessing the efficiency of agricultural production in the Baikal region makes it appropriate to use a cluster form of agro-economy organization [20].…”

The article examines some aspects of the functioning of a regional food supply system, identifies the level of self-sufficiency of subjects of the Russian Federation located in the Baikal region, the main foodstuffs, and the need for the development of interregional food ties. We have made an analysis of tendencies of development of regional agro-industrial complex and substantiated expediency of an inter-regional agro-ecological cluster in the Baikal region, specializing in organic livestock, capable of functioning effectively in the face of environmental constraints imposed in connection with the need to protect Lake Baikal. Baikal region is studied as a unified socio-ecological system in need of strengthening and deepening of interregional connections, one of promising areas of development of which is the agricultural sector, which brings synergistic socio-ecological and economic effect in the formation of agricultural clusters. Keywords: agro-industrial complex, clusters, agro-ecological cluster, sustainable development of the Baikal region, synergistic socio-ecological and economic effect, organic livestock, food supply, self-sufficiency level, interregional communications II.

“…The indigenous population of the Baikal regionthe Buryats and Evenkshave their own environmental management experience, which has been accumulated for centuries adapting to the local rich, generous but harsh nature. The researchers note that the nature management model used by the indigenous people of the region was optimal for the local landscape, "ecologically correct" [3]. However, since the end of the XIX century, this model has been transformed.…”

Ecological traditions are the most important elements of the traditional economic system. They are features distinguishing the traditional economy from the innovation-based one and characterizing intra-system relations of the traditional economy. Therefore, transformation of ecological traditions to a model of environmental management aimed at extracting the maximum short-term benefit (a priority of individual interest above public ones) becomes one of the destructive processes that is destroying the traditional economic system. On the contrary, preservation of ecological traditions contributes to the sustainability of the traditional economic system and protects the environment. The validity of these provisions is confirmed by the study of the traditional economy of the indigenous population of the Baikal regionthe Buryats and Evenks. The concept "traditional economic system" is a "live" model that changes and reflects the evolution of both social relations and ideas about them.
