The Problems of Competitiveness of Domestic Pig Production on the Foreign Market

The article discloses the ways of increasing competitiveness on the international market of pig production. It has been proved that due to a significant depreciation of the national currency against the currencies of the world, the purchase prices for pig production in Ukraine are much lower compared to other countries. The influence of the "grey" import of pork on the balance of the pig production market was analyzed. It was proved that the best method of regulation of import in the pig production has to be quotation for a long time. We believe that the introduction of administrative and fiscal measures to protect the domestic market and domestic producers on the international market of pig production should be made with the development of technological regulation requirements for production and regulation of quality of raw meat. An important mechanism to support exporters is the insurance which can be carried out on foreign and domestic markets. Moreover, it is worthwhile creating an Export insurance agency of agribusiness. Therefore, the actions taken to support the export of pig products will stimulate export potential in key areas of activity starting from optimization of production costs and reduction of investment costs for the withdrawal of products to the final markets.
