Abstract
During the years of import substitution, Russia has significantly increased food self-sufficiency. The implementation of the import substitution policy in agribusiness allowed to create export potential in the industry. On the other hand, a number of challenges related to the dependence on imports of equipment, seeds, and breeding animals remain. World experience proves that import substitution should be timely transformed into export expansion of competitive products and the development of export-oriented production. The authors studied the main stages of Samara agribusiness development in recent years from the introduction of import substitution to the building of export orientation. The purpose of the study is to analyze the role of the import substitution policy and the consequences of its implementation in Samara region agribusiness, and assess the export orientation of the regional agrifood industry. The authors analyzed the implementation of the import substitution policy in the agricultural sector in Samara region, identified ways to build export potential, and assessed the main trends in the development of export orientation in the regional agribusiness. General scientific and special methods and techniques of the economic research, such as theoretical analysis and economic and statistical methods, were used in the study.
