Abstract
Food security concerns gaining considerable importance nowadays represent the realities of contemporary world and raise the issue about the efficiency of the agrarian sector inevitably. Limited agricultural capability stems from scarce internal resources of many countries. Consequently, foreign investment is a necessary prerequisite for the sustainable development of agriculture. The article justifies the conclusion that modern foreign investment trends in agriculture do not provide for the fundamental needs of the sector. The essence of the agribusiness global value chain and its stages is defined in the piece of research. The study demonstrates greater involvement of countries with developing and transition economies in international capital flows in the main segment of the agro-industrial complex – the agricultural production (farming) stage, likewise clear dominance of developed countries in foreign investment processes in international downstream and upstream segments. Investment trends in various sectors of the agribusiness global value chain are detected in the study. The article reveals factors that are increasingly driving foreign investment in agricultural production today. Approaches to designing and implementing government investment policy that is aimed at maximizing efficiency of the agrarian sector by means of foreign capital inflows are outlined in the study.
