Abstract

Balanced and safe development of agro-food sector is one of the priorities of the state strategy of Ukraine as a grain farming country, which in its reserves of agricultural land belongs to the 

richest countries in the world. However, the current situation in the agro-food complex of the state is characterized by the presence of a number of internal and external factors that adversely affect the development of the domestic agro-food market and require accelerated implementation of economic reforms. The main object of the research in this article is the allocation of threatening trends in the agro-food sector, based on the practical experience of domestic grain associations.

The activity of Ukrainian Grain Association negatively affects the image of Ukraine at the global level and creates preconditions for the outflow of investments from the domestic agrarian economy, as well as the reasons for the refusal of the EBRD, the IMF to finance
(and invest) national projects on the development of Ukraineʼs grain market infrastructure (modernization and construction of seaports, port and line elevators, railway and road routes). Thus, enterprises with foreign investments, which are part of the Ukrainian Grain Association, using their monopolistic position in the majority of regions in Ukraine when carrying out economic activities in Ukraine, pose a threat to the country's food security.
