Abstract

It is revealed that there is no definition of a state agricultural policy that reflects its European integration orientation. It is proved that since the signing of the Association Agreement, the process of European integration for Ukraine has become a priority. It was stated that the state agricultural policy should be based on the introduction of a set of legal, organizational and economic measures aimed at the implementation of the Association Agreement in the field of agriculture and rural development. A detailed analysis of the legislation defining the state agrarian policy in the context of European integration has been carried out. The conclusions were drawn about: a large number of legal acts, which are exclusively declarative, since there are no mechanisms for their implementation; lack of a single legal act that would determine the strategic goals of the state agricultural policy, both in the field of agricultural production and social development of the village; lack of a systematic approach, and the adoption of regulations is aimed solely at solving current problems.

It is stated that the main priority of the state agricultural policy should be the concept of sustainable rural development, which envisages integrated development of economic, social and environmental spheres of the village, which must be in interaction and interconnection in order for the use of natural resources of rural territories to meet the needs of the present generation. and was done without sacrificing the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. It is proposed to develop the Fundamentals of The State Agrarian Policy in the form of a Law that would provide a set of legal, organizational and economic measures aimed at implementing the Association Agreement in the field of agriculture and rural development. It is pointed out that the structure of this normative act should reflect the strategic priorities of the state, among which the priority should be: measures aimed at ensuring food security; development of value-added agri-food chains and sustainable rural development in the context of European integration.
