The Swap as a Reflection of Social and Economic Lameness of Agrarian Policy

Abstract

The article considers the necessity of forming normal economic and social conditions for sustainable development of agriculture and vital activity of Russian peasantry. The harmful consequences of the so called swap, i.e. unjustified fiscal confiscation of the income produced in the sector in favor of the state and other subjects, are analyzed. In the framework of the concept of agrarian protectionism and in order to provide agrarian development priority the measures aimed at overcoming these consequences and corresponding changes in the agrarian and general state economic policy are suggested.
