“…Education, like culture determines the welfare of the state and the specificity of national consciousness in many respects. Accelerating social life requires a new approach to the educational process, ensuring the possibility to adapt more quickly to the latest achievements of scientific and technological progress, to be individualized, to correspond to the real prospects of development of economic sectors, and to serve as a prerequisite for the formation of human capital [18].…”

In conditions of high spatial differentiation of rural territories, an objective assessment of the conditions for the reproduction of human capital is of particular importance. However, the developed methods, firstly, cannot always take into account all the components of human capital. Secondly, they do not affect the conditions for its accumulation. Thirdly, they include various indicator systems that are difficult to interpret when analyzing. In this regard, the results of such assessments lead to significant differences in the size of human capital and, accordingly, the impossibility of taking forehanded management measures for its normal reproduction. Therefore, the aim of the study is to develop and test an approach to the diagnosis of the conditions for the reproduction of human capital (demographic, migration, infrastructure and socio-economic), based on the method of scoring and ranking. In the process of the study, it was concluded that there are limitations affecting the reliability of the assessment, the most significant of which is the absence of a complete set of statistical indicators for analyzing the conditions for the reproduction of rural human capital in official Russian statistics. The practical application of the developed point-rating assessment allowed us to identify the degree of differentiation of rural areas of Russia according to the conditions of reproduction of human capital based on the identification of leading regions and outsider regions.

“…To build the model of diversified rural development, we used the methodology and the existing economy structure in rural areas [15], which allows assessing not only the level and potential of rural diversification based on the existing natural and social potential of the territory, but also identifying all possible options for further development of the rural areas, which is directly related to the rational and efficient distribution of resources between alternative areas of rural development.…”

The need for diversification as an effective tool for the rural area development is reasoned and it is substantiated that the transition from the sector-specific structure of the rural economy to the multi-sectoral economy involves the development of new activities, more rational use of the available resources of rural areas, making them more sustainable and competitive. A critical interpretation of the theoretical approaches to substantiating a promising model of rural development was carried out and their options were analyzed. It is proved that rural territories are a complex socio-economic system, and the process of their diversification is conditioned by the object-subject relationship. Based on the implementation of the functional-structural-target approach, the model of diversified rural economy has been developed, taking into account the degree to which some of other sector prevails in its structure, as well as their various combinations. The promising areas of rural economy restructuring based on the expert assessment have been identified. Structurally, the model links the main areas and activities: agricultural (traditional and lost); nonagricultural (industry and construction, forestry, arts and crafts); service sector (education, healthcare, recreation, consumer services). The proposed model of diversified rural development allows an objective assessment of the potential and level of diversification of the rural economy, and the use of assessment results will facilitate the adoption of informed management decisions and the formation of rural policies at the regional and local levels.

“…A study of these approaches allowed concluding that the essence of differentiation can be defined as the process of disintegration into territories that are heterogeneous in a comparable set of attributes. This process is carried out under the influence of objective and subjectively acting mechanisms and turns out to be the result of the process of partition into heterogeneous territories, expressed in significant differences between them, in the directions, forms and levels of socioeconomic development [6].…”

The ambiguity of the concept "human capital" determines a great deal of approaches aiming at its measurement. The lack of a comprehensive assessment of the rural human capital development associated with its differentiation is currently extremely acute and considerable difficult. Firstly, existing methods do not always determine the level of human capital and the conditions for its formation. Secondly, they include various indicator systems that are difficult to interpret when analyzing. In this regard, the results of such assessments lead to significant differences in the amount of human capital and, accordingly, the inability to take managerial actions for its normal reproduction considering the conditions of formation. Therefore, the purpose of the study is to develop a methodology based on a grade-rating assessment of the level of human capital of rural territories considering its elements, the conditions for its formation and testing, which in the context of regions using cluster analysis revealed the types of rural territories with varying degrees of balance. The practical application of the developed methodology made it possible to determine both the leading and the outsider regions, which will help the authorities to make timely management decisions to even out the situation.
