Features of development of the domestic tobacco industry

A feature of the development of the domestic tobacco industry is the high share of volume of production of tobacco products by transnational companies - more than 90%, which is almost all the raw materials for tobacco products imported from foreign countries, in contrast to the previously existing practice of the 90-ies, when the raw tobacco produced in Russia and imported from Union republics. Analyzing the statistics of the raw price statistics from the CIS countries and far abroad, the authors believe that close cooperation with the CIS countries in the field of profitable employment and income of the population - tobacco farming, needs to be supported at the international level. Research data of customs statistics allowed the authors to calculate the monetary balance of monetary resources, which indicates a negative balance of trade monetary balance of tobacco products (There are more imported in Russia than exported from Russia tobacco products to $ 400 million. USA). It is necessary to reduce a negative balance of $ USA for import and export of tobacco products. It appears that the tobacco industry must be recorded in the food security Doctrine of the Russian Federation, as the number of smokers in the country tens of millions of people, which cannot be left without consuming the necessary products, with the withdrawal of the Russian market of foreign tobacco companies.
