Abstract. The article analyzes the consequences of global challenges for
the agricultural sector of the Russian economy, has joined the World trade
organization (WTO). Special attention is paid to the globalization of agricultural
production, food security and risks in terms of the acceleration of the practical
implementation of new principles and technological approaches to agriculture, the
development of the Bioeconomy and the problem of import substitution, the
decline in the share of rural areas and population. Russia is an urgent need to
overcome the growing gap between the content of agricultural and the needs of
agriculture in the new environment. Provides a list of factors which limiting the
development of agricultural education in Russia.
Key words. Global challenges, the world trade organization (WTO),
agriculture, food security and risks, the bioeconomy, agricultural vocational
education, agro-industrial complex (AIC) in Russia, humanitarian expertise,
agrobioethics.
Today, the agricultural sector of the Russian economy faces growing
globalization of agricultural production and food market. XXI century is the
century of high technologies and standards quality of life. Is the intensification of
global competition, covering not only the traditional markets of goods, capital,
technology and labor, but also of the system of national governance, support
innovation, development of human potential.
The need to ensure food security in terms of population growth - today we
are on a planet of 7 billion people - poses new challenges for agriculture. For the
production of sufficient and safe agricultural products requires harmonization of
4
the productive and ecological functions of agricultural landscapes, disease control
and health protection of man, animals and plants, the sustainable development of
rural areas and the desire of the population to achieve a new quality of life. Of
particular concern is received wide spread production and use of genetically
modified organisms (GMOs), carrying a serious risk for human and animal health,
biological diversity on the planet. This requires special mechanisms and
prevention, such as humanitarian expertise and agrobioethics.
The inclusion of the Russian agricultural market into the world market
system, after Russia joins the world trade organization (WTO), given the current
state of agricultural production in our country, can put it in dependence on
transnational corporations and lead to the loss of food sovereignty. Ban and
sanctions on the export of agricultural products to Russia actualized the problem
of import substitution. Russia has huge natural resource potential for efficient
agricultural production: agricultural land in farms of all categories $ 190 million
hectares, including arable land - more than 115 million ha, forage lands - more
than 70 million hectares of new agricultural production will serve as a catalyst for
rural development and growth of the rural economy as a whole, contributes to the
creation of jobs and increasing the attractiveness of rural life, and the credit entry
of additional capacities in crop production, animal husbandry and related
processing sub-sectors of agriculture improves food security of the country and
provides for the substitution of food.
The main strategic threat, from the point of view of realization of the
scenario of innovative development of Russia, is the possible loss in a competitive
race for the formation of the reproductive core of the new technological order.
Today, developed countries are talking not just about agriculture or agribusiness,
and strategic goals of high-tech and profitable sector of the bioeconomy as a
serious alternative to traditional industries, economies and markets. The above
reinforces the need to update the scientific information, technical and
technological base of agriculture on a qualitatively new basis requires maximizing
the export market and to improve conditions for penetration of domestic goods in
this market, and significantly raise their competitiveness.
One of the important conditions to solve some of the problems facing
agriculture of Russia today, is the modernization of the agricultural education is
associated with the formation of relevant scientific, scientific-educational and
scientific-production platform. The progressive development of human potential
of the agricultural sector plays a pivotal role in achieving the designated high
5
results as the main carrier of innovative knowledge and skills, without which the
introduction of modern methods and technologies in production and management
of enterprises of agro-industrial complex is simply impossible. Staffing issues
agriculture is of great socio-economic importance and is the most important
priorities of the state policy not only at present but in the future.
At the same time to ensure the competitiveness of Russia in the conditions of the
major challenges there is an urgent need to overcome the growing gap between
the content of agricultural education, all educational technologies, the structure
and infrastructure of the educational sphere, the level of human capabilities and
the needs of agriculture in the new environment.
