Economic development of agrarian enterprises on basis of diversification of its activities

The purpose of the article is to reveal dynamic changes in a resource potential and causal effect of its use in branches of crop and animal production, as well as identify structural changes in agrarian production and causes of imbalance between the main branches of agriculture and justify its minimization, based on diversification of enterprises. Research methods. The research was based on the dialectical method of cognition. Among particular research scientific methods were used: analysis and synthesis for assessing a situation between the branches of agrarian production; economic-statistical for calculating and characterizing resource indices; computational for forecasting a level of growth of production efficiency on basis of diversification activities of agrarian enterprises. Research results. According to the research results, negative impact of branch imbalances on efficiency of the agrarian production was revealed. As a result, there was determined an inadequate growth between resource potential of agricultural enterprises and benefits from efficiency of it. Elements of scientific novelty. Scientific novelty of the research lies in an improvement of perception of diversification category as an expense provided category and an integration form in the same field of agrarian production. It is characterized by quantitative and qualitative parameters and requires introduction of innovative technologies in order to increase labour results. Practical significance. The practical value of the research results is ability to identify and direct the diversification activity of agrarian enterprises towards increase production volumes per resource unit and increase the level of labour productivity.
