Abstract

The authors of the monograph have devoted their long-standing work to a very important problem, which has been inexplicably sidelined by the official macroeconomic policy of the state government for the last two decades. Prosperity is one of the most significant state problems, even strategic, because the security of the state, as well as the quantity and quality of population reproduction, depends on its solution, i.e. it directly affects demographic development. The relevance of the development is essentially determined by the place and role of food balance for national security.
