【 摘 要 】

The authors highlighted and substantiated the role and importance of import substitution of food for the Russian Federation in the context of the country's food security. The study identified and classified the types of food threats to the Russian Federation which are arising from the high import intensity of the food market. The situation of territorial differentiation in the field of food supply is revealed and substantiated. The paper presents the author's methodology, which are allowing to evaluate the contribution of each region to the import-substituting food potential of the country. The researchers used the ABC-analysis method as a result of the calculation of the import substitution's composite index by federal districts of the Russian Federation for 2010-2012, which also revealed the positioning of individual regions in the field of import substitution and food security. The findings of regional differentiation gave a comparable result, which indicates the relevance of the study. Another significant result of the presented work was the conclusion that the climatic factor of the territory's comfort does not guarantee that the federal districts fall into the leading group on import substitution. According to the authors of the studying, the leading factor which are ensuring the food security of the country as a whole and its individual regions is the level of socio-economic development.
