Therefore, in its general form, it forms the vector of movement of any national food system to an ideal state. Economic development of the state, its potential, stability and position in the modern world are determined by the ability to ensure the country’s food security. This article analyzes the state of food security based on the following indicators: gross agricultural production, production of the main agricultural products, the structure of foreign trade in food, the level of food independence and economic accessibility.The state should serve as a basis for social stability, which ensures the existence of the state itself.
