Food security is the most important task of national security provision for any state. However, it was not a priority for Russia, in spite of the long period of this problem research. Especially this fact was evident in the post-Soviet space. This period of time turned out to be the most destructive for the food security of the country, since agriculture and the agro-industrial complex were destroyed under the influence of market economy laws. Of course, the laws of market economy are completely subject to effective functioning, but Russia at that time could not afford to exercise a proper state support to the agricultural sector in the form of transfers and subsidies from the federal and regional budgets due to the extremely deficit budget and huge external debts [1]. At the same time, it is known that the agricultural potential of the country ensures its food security.
