Мировое производство кукурузы: динамика, региональные особенности и факторы роста

Рассмотрена динамика мирового производства кукурузы за период 1975–2024 гг. Проанализированы изменения урожайности и посевных площадей в региональном разрезе, что позволило выявить и обосновать типы развития отрасли в зависимости от географического положения. Установлено доминирование США в производстве и экспортных поставках на мировые рынки, при этом отмечено, что территориально выращивание кукурузы смещается в сторону азиатского региона.
