Короткий опис(реферат):
The research sets the aim to argue theoretical fundamentals and outline the methods to make diagnostics of the
added value of products, produced by farming enterprises. To determine reserves for improvement of competitive
advantages of farming enterprises the work proposes to use an analytical instrument, called a “value chain”. The
instrument helps to interpret production potential as a basis for the chain of values, which creates the added value.
Applying the instrument, the research suggests that the structural indicators of the added value of farming
enterprises demonstrate distortions, which are manifested in neutralization of a socially important element, i.e.
labor payment, and in prevailing of a commercial constituent, i.e. profit. It is forced by inappropriate branch
structure of large agricultural enterprises. Consequently, efficiency of the added value according to its reproductive
capacity is higher at large farming enterprises, and according to the social focus – at family farms. It means that
large farming enterprises have better reproductive capabilities and higher competitive advantages. At family
farming enterprises of Ukraine, the added value can be increased and competitive advantage can be improved by
means of valorization of their products basing on innovative activity. Such approach secures production focus on
narrow markets and on specific needs of some individuals. It also creates preconditions for modernization,
economic growth and improvement of competitive capacity of farming enterprises.
