Tools for implementation of competitive development strategy of sugar plants of the Russian Federation

The concept of the competitive strategy formation of development of sugar factories of the Russian Federation is suggested in the article. Criteria of the industry development should be created on the basis of the state program of the development of agriculture which was developed for 2013-2020, markets regulation for agricultural products, raw materials and food. These include as economic criteria, allowing assessing the profit and profitability of production and investment criteria, giving the opportunity to take into account the risks of carrying out projects, the payback period of budget funds, and the government take in the project can be used. Top of 10 powerful sugar factories of the Russian Federation, was compiled by authors. The leading positions are occupied by Uspensky, Leningrad and Novopokrovsky sugar factories of Krasnodar Krai, Dobrinsky and Yeletsky of the Lipetsk region, Elan-Kolenovsky and Olkhovatsky of the Voronezh region, Znamensky ofthe Tambov region, as well as Zainsky and Kamensky of the Republic of Tatarstan and the Penza region. Average daily productivity ranges from 5.8 thousand tons to 10.5 thousand tons. The highest percentage of sugar recovery 16.81 and 16.62 are in Yeletsk and Kamensk sugar factories. The smallest losses during storage and transportation are in Yeletsk, Dobrinsky and Olkhovatsky factories (0.05 to 0.14), the greatest in Znamensky, Leningrad and Uspensk sugar factories (0.29 to 0.58%). The dynamics of the development of sugar beet production is a reflection of the processes taking place in the agro-industrial complex as a whole. In our opinion, it is largely depends on the pricing policy for agricultural products, the lack of government orders at different levels, the stimulation of the mechanism of growing sugar beet from domestic seeds, turnover of staff, seasonality of work, the application of new technologies at all stages of production. Attracting investments and improving the investment attractiveness of the industry can serve as the solution of the problem.
