INCREASING THE INVESTMENT ATTRACTIVENESS OF THE AGRICULTURAL SECTOR IN RUSSIA by V. A. Tsvetkov, A. A. Shut’kov, M. N. Dudin, N. V. Lyasnikov

“…The purpose of the article is to determine the main directions of increasing the investment attractiveness of the agricultural sector in the Russian Federation.We used the following methods: a content analysis of the legal framework and scientific publications on the investment attractiveness of the agricultural sector, economic, statistical, and econometric analysis of the dynamics of the industry using special software applications (STATISTICA package).Over the past three years, the dynamics of investment in fixed capital in the agricultural sector is steadily increasing, but the volume of loans attracted is almost twice as high as the volume of investment (hence, loans are attracted to solve current problems). …”
