TECHNOLOGIES FOR KEEPING, FEEDING AND ENSURING VETERINARY WELL-BEING IN PRODUCTIVE LIVESTOCK
Increasing the number of productive animals and obtaining high-quality and safe products is an urgent task for the Russian Federation. Sheep breeding is a significant branch of agriculture since many products can be obtained from small cattle. However, parasitic diseases are a significant problem hindering the realisation of the industry’s potential. In particular, helminthiases lead to considerable damage, reduced productivity and product quality. Therefore, the fight against them should be based on knowledge of the profile of helminthiases in animals of a particular region. The fight against them should be based on knowledge of the shape of helminthiases in animals of a specific area. Therefore, the study of the helminth fauna is an urgent problem. The authors analysed the data of the annual reports of the 5-year form of the testing centre of the KGBU “Altai Regional Veterinary Center for the Prevention and Diagnosis of Animal Diseases” for 20162020. and did their research. The work results determined the nosological profile of helminthiases in small cattle in the Altai Territory. From 2016 to 2020, 2614 cases of infestation of small ruminants were registered. Seventeen nosological entities were identified, including two trematodosis (2.2% of the total infection with helminthiases), five cestodosis (74.2%) and ten nematodosis (23.6%). The most significant helminthiasis in the nosological profile is thin-necked cysticercosis, which occurs in 70% of infected animals. Subdominant is dictyocaulosis (17.8%). Less common than others are monieziasis, alveococcosis and finnosis. Their total share is less than 1%. The widespread infestation of small cattle has declined in the last three years. The data obtained are necessary for the correct organisation of preventive helminthic measures in sheep farms of the region.
GENETIC BASES OF BREEDING AND SELECTION: ANIMAL BIOTECHNOLOGY
The yak is a late-maturing animal compared to cattle. However, the yak has precious properties in terms of endurance to harsh climatic conditions, the ability to make long transitions along inconvenient rocky mountain paths and feed all year round in the pasture, including during the winter. The local population of the Altai Republic has been breeding yaks since ancient times, as evidenced by archaeologists’ finds. Although the maximum number of yaks in the Altai Republic reached in 1990 - 18468 heads and were bred in the farms of five administrative districts, at present, the number of yaks totals only 6043 heads, and they are concentrated mainly in the farms of one municipality - the Kosh-Agachsky district. The authors propose measures for the effective development of yak breeding, increasing the number and rational use of these unique animals, considering natural and climatic conditions, land resources and the existing potential of agricultural producers in the Altai Republic. It is necessary to carry out selection and breeding work to create a highly productive breed to improve the breeding and practical qualities of the Altai population of yaks. The development of gastroecological tourism is the most promising for the Altai Republic. The need for high-quality, environmentally friendly meat, including barley, is constantly growing. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the number of yaks to develop a system at the farm level that ensures the rational use of available pasture lands. One of the critical issues is the development of State Standards (GOST) for meat and all by-products of yaks. Creating a marketing and advertising system for yak products remains an urgent problem.
The article presents data reflecting the features of the synthesis of IgM and IgG in pigs of the SM-1 breed of Novosibirsk selection in phylogenesis. The studies were conducted on pigs on the 30th, 60th, 90th and 240th days of life in 1990, 1996 and 2006. birth. Each group of animals included 66 animals. Groups of animals were formed according to the method of analogues, taking into account age, body weight, sex and health. Pigs were bled from the cranial vena cava. The concentration of IgM and IgG in the blood serum of animals was determined by simple radial immunodiffusion. The study results showed that pigs born in 1990 differ from their peers born in 1996 and 2006 in statistically significant high levels of IgM at 30, 60, and 240 days of age and increased activity of IgG synthesis at three months of age. So, at 30 days of age, piglets born in 1990 exceeded the IgM content in the blood serum of sucklings born in 1996 by 15.5% (P<0.001) and piglets born in 2006 - by 20.0% (P<0.001). On the 60th day of life, the differences between pigs born in 1990 and 1996 and between 1990 and 2006 were, respectively, 26.2 (P<0.01) and 32.5% (P<0.01). In pigs on the 240th day of life, born in 1990, the concentration of IgM in the blood serum was 44.6% (P<0.001) higher than in pigs born in 1996 and 48.0% (P<0.001) higher than in pigs 2006 year of birth. At two months, piglets born in 1990 were inferior in IgG level to piglets born in 1996 by 24.4% and too young animals born in 2006 by 24.7% (P<0.01). A month after weaning, pigs born in 1990 demonstrated the best rehabilitation qualities of the immune system. As a result, piglets born in 1990 were ahead of their counterparts in 1996 and 2006. births by 26.1% (P<0.001) and 26.0% (P<0.001), respectively. Pigs 1996 and 2006 birth throughout the study showed a stable level of antibody genesis.
The research results into the history of the Siberian zonal type of Simmental cattle creation are reflected. It has been established that the leading role in its formation was played by the Smolensk region’s Simmental cattle, which in 1950 was registered as a Sychevskaya breed. Bulls of Swiss, German and Austrian breeding were also used. Since the mid-80s. 20th century to increase milk productivity and suitability for industrial technology, Siberian herds of semimetals were actively crossed with bulls of the Holstein breed (red-and-white colour), and since the beginning of the 21st century. Producers of Austrian and German origin are widely used, which has led to a significant increase in milk productivity, quality indicators of milk and live weight of animals. As a result, domestic lines are practically not found in the Simmental herds of Siberia. Accordingly, the valuable adaptive qualities necessary for dairy cattle breeding in areas with highly natural and climatic conditions were partly lost. Many of the cows began to deviate towards the meat and dairy type, which harmed milk productivity. The gene pool of the domestic Simmental of the desired dairy and milk-meat type has been preserved only in the form of the Sychevskaya breed in the Smolensk, Tver and Kaluga regions. Data on the current state of the number of livestock, genealogical structure and productive indicators of the Sychevskaya breed are presented. The Sychevskaya breed is superior to the Simmental breed in terms of the mass fraction of fat and protein in milk, the yield of calves, the duration of the dry period, the product of meat from a cow, the number of heifers for breeding sales per 1 cow, which provides it with a higher efficiency rating. The expediency of using bulls of the Sychevskaya breed for selection and breeding work with herds of Simmentals in areas with highly natural and climatic conditions in farms with low food supply, specialising in milk production, is substantiated.
ANIMAL PATHOLOGY, MORPHOLOGY, PHYSIOLOGY, PHARMACOLOGY AND TOXICOLOGY
Industrial poultry farming is the leading branch of agriculture. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the body’s physiological state, the resistance of organs and tissues, and their resistance to various influences during the intensive use of poultry. These factors are the basis for maintaining the health and productivity of the bird. Different biologically active substances are used to increase young poultry’s viability. Probiotics deserve special attention. They are essential in the first days of the life of young animals when the intestines are colonised by microflora. Probiotics deserve special attention. They are necessary for the first days of the life of young animals when the intestines are colonised by microflora. The study aimed to study the effect of the probiotic preparation Vetom 1.1 on chickens’ growth and blood biochemistry parameters. The research was carried out based on LLC APF “Yeniseiskaya”—Maloeniseikoye of the Biysk district of the Altai Territory. Two groups of analogue chickens were formed: experimental and control. Each group had 15 Brown Nick goals. In the biochemical study of blood, the following were considered: total protein, glucose, cholesterol, aspartate aminotransferase, and alanine aminotransferase. The assessment was done every two weeks from the first day of life. Thus, the effectiveness of using probiotics as a prophylactic agent and growth stimulator of chickens was established. On the first day of life in chickens, the metabolic parameters (total protein, glucose, cholesterol, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase) were in the lower range of physiological values. In control chickens, there was a tendency to metabolic disorders and an increased likelihood of liver damage by the 4th month of life. The probiotic preparation Vetom 1.1 in the diet normalises metabolic processes and increases average daily gains in chickens.
RATIONAL NATURE MANAGEMENT, ECOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
The authors presented in the article the results of studying the effect of solid and liquid organic fertilisers obtained at their installation and when composting from agricultural waste on spring wheat yield and quality in a laboratory experiment on ordinary chernozems of the Orenburg region. The effectiveness of using the obtained substances as liquid and solid organic fertilisers was assessed. The authors substantiated that according to all options for studying the norms and types of organic fertilisers in the soil, the content of organic matter, ammonium nitrogen, mobile phosphorus and potassium increased. The data on the green mass of spring wheat for all research options in the laboratory experiment are given. It has been established that when liquid organic fertilisers are applied to the soil, ammonium nitrogen is highly mobile and available to plants, so plants become taller at the initial vegetation stage. The authors determined the lower efficiency of applying solid organic fertilisers in short-term laboratory studies. As a result, it has been established that 4 t/ ha for solid organic fertilisers and 8 t/ha for liquid organic fertilisers is the most effective. With such a rate of application of liquid organic fertilisers, the germination of spring wheat reaches 98.7%, and the yield of green mass of plants increases by three times compared to the control. In addition, the trend of the highest efficiency of applying liquid organic fertilisers compared to solid ones was noted.
Green mass and rhizomes of Inula helenium L. are valuable raw materials of great practical importance as a promising source of BAS (biologically active substances). An analysis of plants’ morphological and biological parameters in natural populations makes it possible to determine the yield and, when harvesting raw materials, focus on cenopopulations with an increased phytomass of inflorescences. Assessing the dynamics of the formation of the aboveground phytomass, indicators of photosynthetic activity, the productivity of the aboveground mass, and seed productivity of I. helenium under natural conditions also make it possible to determine the influence of abiotic and biotic environmental factors. The studies were carried out in the laboratory of the Department of Biotechnology and Standardization of the Faculty of Biotechnology of the FSBEI HE “Mountain State Agrarian University” in medium samples of I. helenium, selected in natural cenopopulations of the Republic of North Ossetia - Alania at altitudes of 615 - 847 m above sea level in the plant association of a cereal-forb meadow. In the course of the study, morphological and biological indicators were determined. The authors found that the weight of the rhizome with roots decreases along the vertical profile. Inula helenium in cenopopulations grow at different heights from 127 to 220 cm and form an average of 230-390 g of rhizomes with roots. Individuals of Inula helenium are characterised by the formation of 24 - 26 inflorescences on average on one shoot, each giving 625 - 1015 pcs seeds from 1 basket. The authors took samples of elecampane high close to the villages Surkh-Digora and Chikola North Ossetia - Alania. These samples are characterised by a high weight of 1000 seeds (1834.78 - 1923.24 mg) and a basket diameter (6.98 - 7.29 cm).
RESOURCE-SAVING TECHNOLOGIES IN AGRICULTURE, AGROCHEMISTRY, BREEDING AND SEED PRODUCTION
There is a particularly acute shortage of vegetables and potatoes at the beginning and middle of summer. By this time, last year’s tubers have primarily lost their commercial and food qualities. Under these conditions, early potatoes are of great importance. The article presents the results of a study on the impact of individual agricultural practices on obtaining earlier potato production. On the leached chernozem of the forest steppe of the Novosibirsk Priobye, the effectiveness of initial germination of tubers before planting and the seedling method of growing early potatoes was established. The conducted studies showed that these agrotechnical methods contributed to the rapid passage of the development phases and the receipt of early production. It was also revealed that the studied forms of pre-plant preparation, especially seedlings, increase the yield and marketability of early potato varieties.
. The influence of potato planting patterns on yield and quality was revealed in the steppe zone of the Republic of Khakassia on dark chestnut soils. In addition, varieties of Siberian selection of different maturity groups were studied as an object of study: Krasnoyarsk early - early ripening, Tanai - medium before, and Nakra - mid-ripening. The experiments were laid in 2020 - 2022 on light sandy, loamy dark chestnut soils with a humus content of 2.8% at a slightly alkaline pH. The technology recommended for the steppe zone of Khakassia was used for cultivation. Potato planting schemes were selected for cultivation for food and seed purposes. During the years of research, the average monthly air temperatures during the growing season were close to the long-term averages. The amount of precipitation was close to the norm. However, there were also significant excesses (July 2020 - 268%) and half the bars (July 2021). A decrease in the feeding area increased the height of plants due to a lack of light, with a significant reduction in the parameter of the average leaf area to 12.6%. Due to the optimal feeding area choice, the yield increase was from 1.9 to 3.2 t/ha. The variation in the yield between the planting patterns of varieties of different ripeness groups ranged from 22.7 to 30.5%. Statistical calculations showed that the yield value depends on the array by 21.6%, by 28.5% - from the planting pattern and by 22.8% - from the conditions of the growing season. With the decreased distance between plants in a row, dry matter and starch content increased, and the amount of vitamin C in tubers increased. However, the accumulation of nitrates by tubers in all variants of the experiment and all varieties did not exceed 126 mg/kg at the maximum allowable concentration of 250 mg/kg.
The article presents the results of three-year field trials of the mixed experimental bio preparation Phytop 26.82, consisting of the bacteria Bacillus amyloliquefaciens RCIM (All-Russian Collection of Industrial Microorganisms) B 10642, Bacillus licheniformis RCIM (All-Russian Collection of Industrial Microorganisms) B 10562, Bacillus subtilis RCIM (All-Russian Collection of Industrial Microorganisms) Microorganisms) B 10641, nematophagous fungi Arthrobotrys oligospora RCIM (All-Russian Collection of Industrial Microorganisms) F-1141 and Duddingtonia flagrans VKM F-2574, as well as the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana, against the central raspberry disease - purple spot in the production plantations of the culture. The concentration of the mixture was 105 CFU/ml. As a comparison, we used the chemical fungicide Topaz, EC (emulsion concentrate) at 0.1% concentration. Previously, the authors evaluated the effect of this microbial mixture on the pathogen Didymella applanata in laboratory conditions, which was the basis of field trials. It was found that when one-year-old raspberry shoots were affected by purple spotting, the treatment of vegetative plants reduced the development of the disease by almost three times for more than a month after applying the microbial mixture. Furthermore, the prevalence of the disease decreased by two times or more relative to the control. The biological efficiency of the experimental bio preparation Phytop 26.82 reached 72.7%, comparable to the Topaz chemical fungicide. This mixed microbiological preparation is promising as an environmentally friendly means of protecting raspberries from purple spotting while suppressing other potential diseases and pests on this crop and reducing the undesirable influence of abiotic environmental factors.
ТЕХНОЛОГИИ, МАШИНЫ И ОБОРУДОВАНИЕ ДЛЯ АГРОПРОМЫШЛЕННОГО КОМПЛЕКСА
Only the change in soil temperature with time has been systematically studied on different types of soils. At the same time, many agricultural practices aim to regulate the soil’s temperature regime. Thus, snow retention and mulching with plant residues are effective measures aimed at increasing the temperature of the surface layers of the earth. In the article, the authors investigated the process of world freezing with a mulched surface under a layer of snow covered with an ice crust. Methods of theoretical analysis (structuralfunctional, systemic approach) and mathematical statistics are used. The authors conducted field studies in two versions at LLC “Plemsovkhoz” Kenzhe “of the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic. The first option is bare soil, and the second option is mulched soil with the creation of an ice crust on the snow surface in winter. Studies were carried out on the influence of the mulching layer of vegetation and the ice crust on the snow surface on the annual variation in soil surface temperature and soil temperature. These study results indicate that mulching the soil surface with plant residues and creating an ice crust on the snow surface contributes to the “smoothing” of the soil temperature. So, when using the proposed technological methods, the temperature of the soil with a change in depth from 0 to 100 cm changes from 0°С to +2.5 °С, while without their use - from -3 °С to +2 °С. The authors proved that the temperature of the soil at a depth of 30 cm, when using the proposed technological methods, reaches above 0 °C. This confirms the effectiveness of these techniques in preventing dirt freezing.
REGIONAL AND SECTORAL ECONOMY
The conducted studies of the functioning of agriculture in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) as the basis of food supply made it possible to identify its regional features. Having rich natural resources, the republic cannot fully provide the local population with the necessary food. The region’s provision level with meat is still below 30%, with milk and vegetables - below 60%. This is due to several factors affecting agriculture in the region and insufficient funding from the state. Scientific studies show a reduction in the number of cattle over the past 20 years from 289.7 to 180.9 thousand heads, or by 37.56%, due to a decrease in the forage base in the context of a reduction in pasture and hayfield areas. The territorial location of the Republic in the northern regions of Russia, the sharply continental climate, the peculiar way of life, the high level of urbanisation and the outflow of residents to the other areas of the country dictate the need for priority state support. Currently, the region is managed based on targeted programs. However, state support funds are inconsistent and unstable, which causes the need to develop organisational and economic measures for the sustainable development of the region’s industry and improve the current state support mechanism with an emphasis on the conservation and reproduction of local animal breeds (Yakut breed of cattle), the development of gene pool farms in the region, the preservation of traditional industries and the rural way of life.
In the article, the authors presented the impact of geoinformation technologies on various fields of activity, which makes it possible to visualise many information data to a large extent. Such data also applies to the tourism sector of the economy. The Republic of Altai, where tourism is a priority sector of the economy. This study aims to develop an interactive map for the Altai Republic by analysing tourist resources using information technology. The authors considered the definition of recreational resources and analysed the information resources used in the tourism sector of the Altai Republic. The authors presented an analysis of the tourism resources of the Altai Republic (plant and forest resources, historical and cultural heritage). They showed the number of collective accommodation facilities by districts of the Altai Republic in the context of communities. An analysis of information resources was carried out: the Google search engine, the Tourist site, the tourist portal Touristka.Ru, and the location of the Ministry of Natural Resources, Ecology and Tourism of the Altai Republic. The authors also proposed to create an interactive map on the website of the Ministry of Natural Resources of the Republic of Armenia. This map should contain information about natural, cultural, historical, and socio-economic resources. Based on the results of the analysis of tours presented on tour operators’ websites operating in the Altai Republic territory, objects were identified that are most often mentioned or visited by tourists.
Increased demand in the oilseeds market allows agricultural producers to diversify production and sell products on the international market. The purpose of the study is to assess the development trends in the production of oilseeds in an agro-oriented region. The objects of observation are organisations of various organisational and legal forms of ownership. The analysis of the sustainable development of the oilseeds market made it possible to determine that the Altai Territory is one of the largest agrarian-oriented regions with significant land resources that allow the efficient cultivation of oilseeds. In current conditions, considerable work is underway in the region to change the structure of sown areas in the direction of their increase for highmargin oilseeds. Also, to obtain high yields in the region, space navigation systems are being introduced, highyielding varieties and hybrids are used, and a plant protection system and use of mineral fertilisers are. At the same time, highly efficient technologies are used on 4.1 million hectares of sown areas. The navigation system (space technology) allows the use of equipment with GLONASS navigation while satisfying the possibility of using advanced technologies to produce agricultural products and their transportation. In addition, the crossborder location of the region makes it possible to optimise the channels for selling products to the markets of Asian countries. To further stimulate the production of high-quality long fibre flax for agricultural producers, state support funds were provided to compensate for up to 40% of the cost of machinery and equipment used for the production and primary processing of fibre flax. At the same time, several issues should be resolved, such as the use of rational land use technologies based on technical re-equipment, land reclamation (stageby-stage restoration of irrigation), development of a system of domestic elite seed production, the introduction of modern innovative technologies for the cultivation of oilseeds; reduction of production costs of cultivation of oilseeds.
Recently, more and more attention has been paid to the development of the agrarian sector of the Russian economy, as well as the formation of conditions necessary for the dynamic evolution of its sectors at the regional level. The article systematises and presents various approaches to studying the definition of “production potential” set out in the scientific works of domestic and foreign economists. The research methodology was based on a theoretical analysis of approaches to the interpretation of the concept of “production potential”, a retrospective and statistical analysis of gross milk production, livestock and productivity of cows, and per capita milk consumption, taking into account the practical approach to the definition of “production potential”. The problem of degradation of dairy cattle breeding in the Krasnoyarsk Territory has been identified, which entails a decrease in the average per capita consumption of milk and dairy products and an imbalance in food security in the region. The task of studying the issues of forming and increasing the efficiency of using the production potential of the industry is outlined, taking into account the dynamically changing conditions for the development of the domestic economy. Based on the analysis of global trends in the development of the industry, as well as the experience of leading domestic farms, the composition of the tools for the digital transformation of dairy cattle breeding is presented. As a result of the study, a new approach to forming the industry’s production potential was formulated, which made it possible to revise the conceptual policy for developing dairy cattle breeding, considering modern digital tools.
The authors analysed the components and elements of effective company value management. First, the purpose and objectives of a comprehensive assessment of the company’s value in current conditions are highlighted. A description of the existing approaches and methods for assessing the value of a business is given. Finally, the strengths and weaknesses of the business valuation methods of the considered strategies are highlighted. The valuation of a company is a procedure for establishing the market value of an economic entity. The need for this procedure may appear in certain legal situations and gives the business owner a unique advantage over his competitors. Estimating the value of a business is a rather laborious and lengthy process, which includes several stages and requires specific knowledge and experience from a specialist [1]. To carry out its activities, each business entity must own the property of which it is the owner, i.e., the company’s assets, acting as its economic resources in the form of total property values used to generate income. Therefore, any business’s success depends directly on its owner’s knowledge of the field in which it operates. In addition, the entrepreneur needs to know the actual value of the company or firm he is interested in. Suppose an entrepreneur has reliable data about the business entity of interest. In that case, he can easily dictate the transaction’s terms, rationally assess his financial capabilities, receive loans on the most favourable terms, and participate in tenders and various auctions.
The article analyses the economic efficiency of anti-epizootic actions by the State Veterinary Service of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). The spread of infectious diseases of farm animals in the territory of Yakutia has a particular impact on the livestock economy. For 21 years (2001 - 2021), 99.5 thousand heads of all types of productive animals and poultry (cattle, pigs, horses, reindeer, small cattle, fur animals, poultry) fell ill with all infections. Furthermore, due to the death (case) and forced slaughter of sick animals, 31.2 thousand heads dropped out of the herd circulation. Diseases, including the death of animals, caused the loss of 188.9 tons of meat in live weight and 385 skins of fur-bearing animals, with a total economic loss of 426.6 million rubles. The economic efficiency of planned anti-epizootic measures in 2021 amounted to 870 million rubles. This efficiency is expressed through the indicator of the prevented economic damage for all farm animals. At the same time, the loss of 3054.9 tons of meat in live weight and 2.1 thousand skins of fur-bearing animals was prevented. The annual prevented economic damage was two times higher than the damage caused over 21 years, indicating the high economic efficiency of anti-epizootic measures. The share of prevented financial losses from infectious animal diseases in the cost of livestock products was 4.6%, which determines the contribution of livestock veterinary services to the economy of agricultural production in Yakutia.
A critical review of existing approaches to forming methods for assessing the agricultural load has been conducted. An author’s plan has been proposed, the distinctive feature of which is to obtain an integral, comprehensive assessment of crop and livestock load indicators (the share of the sown area from the district area and the cattle density in the calculation per 1 km2). In calculating the agricultural load, it is recommended to use not only actual but also forecast (target) indicators of the structure of agricultural production, which, when implementing public investment programs, will make it possible to manage the production system purposefully. The districts of the Novosibirsk region have identified that experience both the most significant agricultural load (in general and in the context of crop and livestock production) - Kochkovsky, Bagansky, Karasuksky, etc., and the smallest - Severny, Kyshtovsky government investment programs.
The article discusses the results of monitoring the social and labour sphere of the village of the Krasnoyarsk Territory in assessing the financial situation of rural households and the problems that concern rural residents to the greatest extent. The study was conducted in the economic crisis and socio-psychological climate. As a result, the rural population assesses its financial situation quite self-critically and believes that, most likely, it will remain unchanged. However, a fascinating fact is that, despite the low-income level of rural residents, most respondents are not going to take part in agricultural consumer cooperatives, cannot or do not want to organise their businesses and are not oriented towards small business. However, residents generally do not plan to move to the city; in the event of a job loss, they will try to get any other job in the countryside. Therefore, it is proposed to evaluate the qualitative characteristics of the social and labour sphere of the village using the “social scale” methodology, consisting of six stages, starting with the selection of the necessary qualitative indicators and their grouping, interviewing rural residents, converting respondents’ answers into numerical values, placing weighting coefficients and interpreting the results. Finally, it is concluded that the main directions of state policy in the development of the social and labour sphere of the village should be: increasing the level and effectiveness of state support for agricultural producers, developing small businesses and cooperation, and increasing employment through non-agricultural activities and self-employment. Along with these measures, it is recommended to provide social support to low-income citizens by expanding the scope of social contracts and implementing a targeted food assistance project.
TIMELINE. EVENTS. FACTS.
In the article, the author conducts a new theoretical analysis of the Russian Federation’s new economic policy launch. The study is based on the growing discussions about resolving the issue of changing the monetary policy in the Russian Federation. According to the leader of our state V.V. Putin, in the next decade, the fate of the whole world will be decided, connected with the transition from a unipolar world order to a multipolar one, with the movement of economic centres from the West to the East and Asia. Over the past year and this year, at many international forums and conferences, the thesis has repeatedly expressed that the Western capitalist model has reached an impasse and no longer works properly. And as First Deputy Prime Minister A. Belousov said today that the world economy is in a perfect storm, and no one knows when it will end. At present, we already see all this not only in theory but also in practice. As the leader of our country stated, openness, ensuring technological sovereignty, reliance on entrepreneurial freedoms, a balanced macroeconomic policy and social justice should become the principles of Russia’s new economic policy. The critical problem of interest to us is the obstacles, difficulties, and myths that await our state’s leadership in the course of the implementation of this project.
The information capabilities of the human cerebral cortex and its ability to place a significant number of “files” that can be used in any field of professional activity are considered. At the same time, an intellectual, professional and unique knowledge that characterises the actions of individual subjects and the level of their professional training are considered. The authors attach particular importance to the academic staff. It is believed that the most productive age in the educational process is 60 years old, so the price of a creative team will be commensurate with such an indicator as the quantitative composition of the professorship (its relative share).
