Interlevel interaction in financial support of rural infrastructure development

The article examines aspects of the use of modern tools of inter-level interaction in the implementation of areas for the integrated development of rural areas and program measures for the infrastructure development of agro-industrial territorial-economic systems. Individual theoretical provisions in this area of scientific research have been studied, which has made it possible to identify modern features of the economic integration of rural areas in solving common infrastructure problems. Using the example of the subjects of the Volga-Kama macroregion of the Russian Federation, the processes of inter-level co-financing of infrastructure activities of rural development programs are considered. In order to improve management, an approach has been proposed to compare regions in terms of funding volumes per capita of the rural population. Destructive features of the organization of inter-level interaction in the Perm region have been identified, allowing us to judge serious shortcomings in the organization of the activities of the relevant state and municipal regulatory bodies. Based on the results of the study, separate recommendations were given to improve cross-level interaction in financial support for the development of rural infrastructure.
