Problems and ways of improving the mechanism of rendering product-specific support to agricultural producers of Belarus.

Abstract

The article presents the results of research on the development of scientifically based approaches to improving the mechanism for applying productspecific support measures to producers of certain types of agricultural products, in particular subsidies (premiums) for products sold. The practice of applying this kind of support in Belarus is shortlived and requires a certain adjustment to improve the efficiency of the functioning of the agrarian sector. For example, under the terms of the WTO, it is necessary: expand the list of subsidized products in order to bring the de minimis limits into line; take into account when determining the amount of allowances for the next financial year, the actual amount of costs that have developed within the groups of organizations formed by the cadastral valuation of agricultural lands that have a positive profitability; to deduce normative values of profitability for bringing in parity conditions of functioning of agrarians with adjoining branches of economy; to introduce increasing coefficients when calculating the amounts of the paid extra charges for the results of activities for a particular type of product.
