Abstract. Successful and economically sustainable development of agriculture is impossible without a qualitative legal regulation of social relations in the agricultural sector. Through legislative and other regulatory legal acts the government regulates, first, the production-economic relations (the system of prices, taxes, wages, etc.); second, organizational-administrative relations (the system of bodies of management of the economy, the allocation of rights and responsibilities between levels of management, forms of government and the participation of workers in management of the economy, etc.); third, the system of economic levers and incentives; fourth, the system of foreign economic relations of Russian agricultural producers in connection with the transition to export-oriented development. Currently, Russian agriculture is operating in the context of geopolitical and geoeconomic instability associated with the application of economic sanctions against the Russian Federation. On the one hand, the sanctions have exposed the acute problems of domestic agriculture associated with the shortage of seed in crop and breeding material in livestock and for this reason, dependence on imports; on the other hand, the accelerated import substitution caused by the sanctions has had a positive impact on the scientific, technological and scientific-technical development of the entire system of agriculture, which contributes to the transition of domestic agricultural producers to new technological methods and techniques that provide real growth in productivity in crop and livestock production and on this basis, increase in the production of agricultural products, raw materials and food. Taken together, the measures taken at the legal level for state support of agriculture have already significantly reduced the dependence on imports and occupy a niche in the global agri-food market. This article discusses the current directions of economic and legal regulation of the development of Russian agriculture.
Keywords: agriculture, agro-industrial complex, agricultural activity, legal regulation, import substitution of agricultural products, raw materials and food, export-oriented development.
