Russia in the system of international integration processes: agrarian aspect

Russia is a member of a number of major international integration associations, including: Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), BRICS, Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU). Against the background of the aggravation of the geopolitical situation and the strengthening of sanctions pressure in the context of the course pursued by Western countries towards the economic isolation of Russia, the role of cooperation within the framework of already functioning interstate associations has increased, and in connection with the redrawing of the map of international trade and economic partners, it is reasonable to expand integration cooperation in new directions. Within the framework of the scientific study, the dynamics of the volume of Russian exports of food products and agricultural raw materials to the SCO, BRICS, EAEU countries in the period from 2015 to 2021 was considered, its structure by importing countries was analyzed and the largest trading partners of Russia among the member states of these integration associations were identified. A significant increase in the volume of mutual trade in food products and agricultural raw materials in value terms were established in the EAEU countries over the studied period and an increase in export supplies to the markets of the SCO member states. The structure of Russian exports of the agro-industrial complex by type of products in 2021 was studied, export-oriented segments in the crop and animal husbandry sectors and priority areas of Russian agroexport were identified. The conducted scientific research has shown that our country is actively working on international trading platforms, interacting with its partners within the framework of interstate integration associations, increasing the volume of exports of food products and agricultural raw materials, expanding its trade and economic ties and has the potential for export growth.
