Background: The Official Development Assistance, or ODA has been an invaluable source to assist developing countries in their economic and social development. Of the major ODA donors, the Republic of Korea (Korea) became a significant player in ODA and a role model. Providing its ODA, Korea designates the priority partner countries to which 70% of Korean bilateral ODA is allocated and formulates a country partnership strategy for each priority partner country. Objective: This study focuses on five sub-Saharan countries that were designated as Korea’s priority partner countries during the period of 2011-2020 and takes a detailed look at Korea’s ODA to their Agriculture and Rural Development (ARD) during the same period. With the five countries and ARD, this study intends to examine a hypothesis; the worse its food security and agricultural development was at a national level, the larger Korea’s ARD aid the country received. Methods: To test the hypothesis, data collected from World Bank, Global Hunger Index Reports and Korea ODA Statistics are sorted and analyzed. Then comparisons are made between Korea’s grant disbursements to ARD and the status of food security of the five African countries: Ethiopia, Ghana, Mozambique, Rwanda, and Uganda. Results: Results from the data indicate that there seems little consistency between the status of agriculture and food security of the five African countries and the allocated amounts of Korean ARD grants. Conclusion: Therefore, selection criteria for ARD grant allocation should exist and policy suggestions are made for Korea to formulate more consistent and systemic strategies for ARD support in sub-Saharan countries.

The article examines the state of food security in the Republic of Moldova and the provision of the country’s population with food since the last quarter of the XX century. Until now. Based on the analysis of various information for the specified period, the author showed that by the end of the XX century. due to the destruction of the main production potential of the agro-industrial complex, Moldova lost its food independence. On the one hand, this is the result of a significant decline in domestic food production. On the other hand, this trend is explained by a sharp increase in imports of traditionally produced in the country types of food products. In conclusion, it is concluded that ensuring food security in Moldova is possible on its own production basis, which is due to significant natural resources sufficient for the production of all major types of food products in the required quantity and proper quality. Due to the fact that in modern conditions agricultural production and food markets, being neither self-regulating nor self-sufficient, cannot successfully function without state regulation and support The government should take responsibility for the development and implementation of a specific state program in the field of national security in the food sector to provide the population with its own food. Keywords: agro-industrial complex, Moldova, food security, reform, physical accessibility, development strategy.

The article proposes the methodological tool and comprehensive indicator for assessing the food security of the regions. The index of food security is determined on the basis of the systematic groups of indicators. In the distribution of food products, the following indicators are analyzed: the indexes of food prices, the magnitude of the change in real incomes of the population, the population with incomes below the subsistence minimum. Among the indicators in the distribution of food products the volume of food consumption in accordance with rational consumption rates, the share of food expenditure in the structure of household consumption expenditures are considered. In the field of production the indexes of production of various types of agricultural products in the region are considered. The ranking of the Southern Federal District (SFD) regions by selected groups of indicators made it possible to determine the leaders in food security among the regions. In 2017, Krasnodar Krai, the Republic of Adygea and Rostov Region were among these regions. On the basis of the analysis performed, the authors established risks and threats in food supply of the SFD regions: imbalance of the consumer ration; decrease in real incomes and purchasing power of population; a high proportion of the population with incomes below the subsistence minimum in the region. The practical significance of the proposed approach lies in the possibility of justifying the choice of priority measures to optimize agrarian policy, taking into account the need to maintain an acceptable level of food provision in the regions of Russia.

The article presents an analysis of the prospects for the development of aquaculture in the southern regions of Russia. It is shown that the volume of aquaculture in the southern regions of the country in 2020 amounted to more than 78.6 thousand tons, which is 24% of the all-Russian. The Southern Federal District is one of the three leaders in the production of aquaculture products, its volume amounted to 81.4 thousand tons in 2019 and 70.2 thousand tons in 2020. About 90.6% of aquaculture products were received in the Rostov and Astrakhan regions, Krasnodar Krai. The volume of commercial production in the Republic of Crimea has increased significantly (by 23%). Pasture aquaculture, pond and industrial fish farming, recreational aquaculture, and mariculture are promising areas in the federal District. There is a great variety of growing objects, these are both traditional species for the region and the country — carp, herbivorous, sturgeon, and pike, common and channel catfish, walleye, perch, pilengas, paddlefish, buffalo. In addition, shellfish farms are actively developing on the coast of Crimea. The prospects of interaction between fundamental, branch, university science and enterprises of the real sector of the economy are shown. In order to achieve sustainable development of the country’s aquaculture, it is necessary to strengthen state support measures, especially for small businesses and fish farming. At the same time, support should be provided not only at the state, but also at the regional level.

The research was carried out in September-November 2020 within the framework of the project «Ethno-demographic processes in the Asian Russia: the current situation, forecasts and risks» (scientific supervisor, Doctor of History T. Smirnova) in order to identify the consequences of internal and international migration in the FEB. The Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) is one of the largest subjects of the Far-Eastern federal district, but sparsely populated. Migration exchange in the region has occurred and continues to occur due to the arrival of flows of migrants from different regions of the Russian Federation, the CIS countries and the PRC. If representatives of the Central Asia began arriving en masse in the post-Soviet period, then migrants from Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Ukraine, as well as other regions of the Russian Federation began to arrive from the beginning of industrial development of the territory of the Republic. Obviously, such a long-term interaction with migrants forms a tolerant attitude towards them among representatives of the local community, as evidenced by the empirical data obtained. It should also be noted that the current trend of internationalization of higher education through academic mobility of the students, the implementation of joint educational programs with double diploma, etc. contributes to the expansion of interethnic and international contacts of students. Of course, this cannot but influence the expansion of student contacts. The respondents assessed the consequences of migration in the region, indicated in which case the outflow of young people in the region could stop. The article analyzes the primary material that was collected by the method of quota questionnaire survey of university students in Yakutsk, the sample size was 200 respondents.

The Far Eastern Federal District is one of the most disadvantaged regions of Russia with a high level of recidivism. In 2019, the proportion of crimes committed by persons who had previously committed crimes among those investigated was 64.7%. Recidivism rate per 100 thousand people reached 660.5, which is 1.6 times higher than the national average. More than half of all recurrent crimes detected in the Far Eastern Federal District are in Primorsky, Zabaikalsky, Khabarovsk Krais. Zabaikalsky Krai, the Republic of Buryatia, Magadan and Amur Oblasts are leading in terms of the recidivism rate. In the structure of recidivism, in addition to embezzlement, drug crimes and criminal violations of traffic rules occupy a noticeable place (Art., 264, Art. 264.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation).
