The dissertation is devoted to the development of theoretical and methodological principles of management of sustainable development of the agrarian sector of the economy taking into account the environmental, economic, social and institutional determinants.
As a result of the decomposition of the categories “agriculture”, “agrarian com-plex”, “agrarian sphere”, “agrarian sector”, there is an in-depth understanding of the concept of “sustainable development of the agrarian sector of the economy”, under which it is proposed to understand the optimally organized from the point of view of the use and reproduction of socio-economic and ecological resources system of pro-duction, processing, sale and consumption of agricultural products provided by eco-nomic agents, as well as institutions authorized to develop and implement a strategic and operational state policy in the field of agri-business, the ultimate goal of which is to achieve the country food security.
The conceptual principles of management of sustainable development of the agrarian sector of the economy have been developed, which, firstly, accumulate a clear identification of the elements of the managed (determinants of sustainable develop-ment of the agrarian sector of the economy) and the control subsystems of the govern-ance (state authorities, local self-government bodies, self-regulatory organizations), as well as institutional environment; secondly, are based on a structural, functional and hierarchical approach to managing the sustainable development of the agrarian sector of the economy; and thirdly, include the achievable vectors of ensuring the sustainable development of the agrarian sector of the economy.
The scientific-methodical approach to the identification of the integral indicator of sustainable development of the agrarian sector of the economy and its subindexes based on the principal component analysis and their subsequent use as parameters of the characteristics of the level of food security of the country has been proposed.
On the basis of the regression analysis, the parameters of the relationship be-tween the relevant ecological, economic and social determinants and key performance indicators of sustainable development of the agrarian sector of the economy have been established, which has made it possible to establish operational and strategic instru-ments for its provision.
The time intervals of the maximum effectiveness of the influence of the relevant ecological, social and economic factors on the integral indicator of sustainable devel-opment of the agrarian sector of the economy and its subindexes based on the distrib-uted lag model have been determined. It is created an analytical approach to the adop-tion of effective management decisions regarding the priority of using the instruments of the ecological, social and economic channels of the state regulation.
The methodical principles for determining the level of influence of the state ad-ministration regime on the processes of ensuring the sustainable development of the agrarian sector of the economy have been developed, which allows us to investigate the trend of changing the economic benefits for the country when changing the politi-cal regime to a more democratic variant. In parallel, the formed information base al-lows identifying institutional drivers for the sustainable development of the agrarian sector of the economy.
A complex of methods and tools of the state administration has been formed for the sustainable development of the agrarian sector of the economy in terms of ecolog-ical, economic and social channels of influence. This allows, depending on the incom-ing socio-ecological and economic parameters of the development of the territory, to reach the primary parameters of sustainable development of the agrarian sector of the economy in the fastest and most effective way.
Based on the use of logit regression, which allows taking into account the state of the ecological, economic and social potential of the territory, strategies for the sus-tainable development of the agrarian sector of the economy have been formed at the regional level. The peculiarity of the proposed method is the possibility of forming an individual complex of the most effective instruments of the state influence in the con-text of ecological, economic and social channels, depending on the most problematic component of sustainable development of the agrarian sector of the economy.
Keywords: agrarian sector of the economy, sustainable development, state regu-lation, sustainable development determinants, food availability, food access, food sta-bility, food utilization, socio-ecological and economic factors.
