AGRICULTURAL ENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY AND ITS EFFICIENCY IN THE MODERN ECONOMIC CONDITIONS

Abstract

Within the framework of the study of the parameters of the internal environment in relation to the level of economic sustainability, the article presents the main strategies aimed at increasing the level of integrated economic sustainability of an enterprise structure in the face of crisis situations and phenomena. These strategies include: the strategy of preserving the existing level of economic sustainability by ensuring the stability of business processes, the strategy of accelerated growth of the level of economic sustainability due to increased demand for the goods and services sold, the strategy of growth by using the "advantages" of the consequences of crisis phenomena, and a number of others. The article proves that the formation of integrated economic sustainability occurs through active interaction and mutual influence of management strategies and professional competences of economic behaviour of an entrepreneurial entity. Increasing the efficiency of this complementary organisational process contributes to increasing the level of sustainability and the ability to ensure stable and balanced functioning of the business structure in the face of crisis phenomena of a completely different nature and impact. Objective. A comprehensive study and further systematic development of the theory and methodology of strategic management of economic sustainability of business structures in the context of developing corporate strategies is timely and relevant. Methodology. The methodological basis of the study was formed by the provisions of the systemic approach and analysis, a synergistic approach to assessing the essence of sustainability as a separate scientific category, and a process approach in the context of developing methodological provisions for ensuring the integrated economic sustainability of business structures. Practical implications. The competencies of economic behaviour of business entities described and analysed above can be correlated both with the peculiarities of doing business in a stable market system and with the impact of crisis phenomena (by analogy with the first methodological approach to assessing the integrated economic sustainability of an enterprise structure). Value/Originality. The article identifies and characterises key directions of the state policy aimed at ensuring economic sustainability of entrepreneurial structures, including in the context of the current crisis.
