The relevance of the dissertation is in the fact that the successful implementation of economic policy is possible only under the condition of using the necessary and sufficient set of measures that form an effective toolkit of state regulation. At the same time, the condition for the effective functioning of agriculture is the process of reproduction, the practical implementation of which depends on the effective use of natural resources, labor and means of production. Therefore, the problem of state regulation of reproductive processes in agriculture is of particular importance in the context of solving the problems of overcoming the economic recession caused by the political and general economic situation in Ukraine. The dissertation summarizes the theoretical and methodological foundations of state regulation of reproductive processes in the agriculture of Ukraine; a detailed analysis of classical approaches of the regulation of reproductive processes was carried out; modern toolkit of state regulation of reproductive processes in agriculture of Ukraine is given. The work highlights a theoretical and methodological approach to the characterization of the system of reproductive processes in agriculture, where its basic elements are the reproduction of the triad of production factors - land, labor and capital. The dissertation introduces a new author’s approach to the interpretation of the concept of “state regulation of reproductive processes in agriculture” as substantiated and proven, which is a purposeful action of state bodies on the market mechanism with the aim of providing the population with food products of appropriate quality, due to the effective use of available production factors without disrupting the economic , social and ecological balance. It has been established that the process of reproduction of land as a factor of production consists in the development of measures to reduce soil acidity and salinity, carrying out works on land reclamation, and the use of organic and mineral fertilizers. The reproduction of fixed capital in agriculture is related to both the general features of agriculture and intra-industry differences in the reproduction of the main means of crop and animal husbandry. Normative and legal providing of reproduction processes in agriculture are legal mechanisms available in the domestic economy that form the legal basis necessary for the implementation of the reproduction process, which can directly or indirectly affect reproduction processes. The work established that the main unresolved problem of today is the declarativeness of individual legal acts, which is caused by the low financial support of action plans aimed at the expanded reproduction of production factors. Based on the results of the conducted research, recommendations are proposed regarding the application of the experience of the countries of the world in the use of specific levers and tools for regulating reproductive processes in agriculture. The dissertation established that the use of existing methods of assessing the effectiveness of state regulation of reproductive processes does not allow objective assessment of reproductive processes in agriculture. The main reason here is that these indicators practically reflect the results of agricultural activity and do not reflect the state of reproductive processes as a whole system, which does not allow determining the factors and conditions of unsatisfactory efficiency. The work uses a scientific approach to evaluating the effectiveness of state regulation of reproductive processes in agriculture in Ukraine through the prism of such system-forming indicators as: the global index of food security, economic availability, physical availability, quality and safety, provision of natural resources, which helped to identify the main connections between all indicators and find out the place of Ukraine in the general rating of food, economic and resource security. For a comprehensive assessment of the overall economic efficiency of reproductive processes in agriculture in Ukraine, the taxonomic analysis method was used - calculation of the taxonomy coefficient, which allowed to combine various indicators of reproductive processes through the prism of three factors of production - land, labor and capital relative to the standard vector.
