There are three determined groups of factors to increase income level of households, i.e. elimination of “holes”, causing money flow out of the economy; measures of macro- and microeconomic character. Originality. The necessary level of household incomes is substantiated, which will allow for positive changes in the economic behavior of agricultural enterprises. Practical value.
