The unemployment, low quality of life and low salaries are the main problems of the Russian countryside which is in the process of dying now. The out-migration from rural territories to big cities such as Saint- Petersburg and Moscow takes place all other the country. It damages the regional economy due to the outflow of human resources. We assume that the rate of unemployment in rural Russia is higher than statistics data shows, because the majority of unemployed do not want to be registered by state bodies. A survey of countryside local residents showed that they need extra money, they are not familiar with entrepreneurship through the Internet, they are interested in making money through the Internet. Taking in mind the realm of the digitalization and post-industrial economy, we propose to renovate the rural economy with the help of self-development tools that involve the local community in the entrepreneurship in digital economy. That is why we propose to work with locals, teaching them to earn money with the help of Internet.

“…Labor at a private subsidiary plot, embracing mainly traditional economies (hunting and fishing, cattle breeding, horse breeding, reindeer herding), in the harsh climatic conditions of the North is the most common form of self-employment of the republic's rural population. The need for self-employment in rural communities is dictated by the tightness of workplaces in rural areas, wage gap between different sectors of economy, and objective economic hardships of many rural families [1].…”

Traditional economic activity is a significant part of non- observed economy sustaining in regions with a large share of rural population. Non-transparency of subsistence economy hampers assessment of its contribution to goods and services production, the number and income levels of self-employed. The paper summarizes a study of contribution of private subsidiary plots and other forms of traditional economic activity (hunting, fishery, gathering) in rural household incomes and self- employment in Yakutia based on a representative sociological survey of 2017-2019. The share of in-kind income in household budgets estimated by the authors averages 15.7%, partly compensating for cash income deficit and helping alleviate poverty problem in the region.
