Abstract

The article examines the dependence of the development of the global agricultural system against climate change of the planet. It is argued that agricultural production in the period beyond 2015 is playing an increasingly prominent role, and it will increase in future. The current vulnerability of climate system largely depends on a delicate balance between greenhouse gas emissions caused by human activities, a policy aimed at mitigating these harmful effects and the natural dynamics of the functioning of terrestrial and ocean systems. This, in turn, depends on the number of sources of greenhouse gases that affect climate. Unprecedented climate change seriously threatens agricultural production and food security. It is therefore essential the further development of new areas of science, including a reliable methodology for monitoring greenhouse gases, advanced modeling tools, collection and aggregation of big data. Despite the good preconditions for the development of the food sector, the risk of impacts of climate change on natural ecosystems remains high, even under favorable temperature conditions. Thus, solutions must be found in the change of our paradigms.We must change the attitude towards agriculture as a separate component of the food system. Agriculture should be an important element in mitigating the effects of climate change and adaptive strategies. The author argues that Russia is a promising candidate among the boreal regions. Russia is able to take advantage of the situation and to turn from an importer of agricultural products into solid world exporter of food. The article presents several factors that can become the basis for a new agricultural and food strategy of Russia. But to fully take advantage of such capabilities it is required significant transformation. Taking into account some changes in the agricultural sector, the author provides recommendations that could enhance the role of the Russian Federation on the agrofood world markets. В статье анализируется зависимость развития глобальной агропромышленной системы от изменения климата планеты. Утверждается, что сельскохозяйственное производство в период после 2015 г. играет все более заметную роль, и в дальнейшем она будет усиливаться. При этом нынешняя уязвимость климатической системы во многом зависит от тонкого баланса между выбросами парниковых газов, вызванных деятельностью человека, политикой смягчения этих пагубных последствий и естественной динамикой функционирования земных и океанских систем. Это, в свою очередь, зависит от количества источников парниковых газов, оказывающих влияние на климат. Беспрецедентное изменение климата серьезно угрожает производству сельско-хозяйственной продукции и продовольственной безопасности. Поэтому крайне важно дальнейшее развитие новых направлений науки, включающих в себя надежные методологии мониторинга парниковых газов, передовые инструменты моделирования, сбора и статистической обработки больших данных. Несмотря на хорошие предпосылки для развития продовольственного сектора, риск воздействия климатических изменений на природные экосистемы остается высоким, даже при наличии благоприятных температурных условий. Таким образом, решения должны быть найдены в изменении наших парадигм. Мы должны изменить отношение к сельскому хозяйству как к отдельному компоненту продовольственной системы. Сельское хозяйство должно стать важным элементом смягчения последствий изменения климата и адаптивных стратегий. Автор утверждает, что Россия является перспективным кандидатом среди бореальных регионов, способным воспользоваться сложившейся ситуацией и превратиться из импортера сельскохозяйственной продукции в солидного мирового экспортера продовольствия. В статье представлено несколько факторов, которые могут стать основой новой агропродовольственной стратегии России. Но чтобы в полной мере воспользоваться такими возможностями, необходимы существенные преобразования. Подводя итоги некоторых изменений в аграрном секторе, автор дает рекомендации, которые могли бы повысить роль Российской Федерации на агропродовольственных мировых рынках.
