It represents a set of official views on the goals, objectives and main directions of the state economic policy in the field of food security of the Russian Federation. Food security of the Russian Federation is one of the main directions of ensuring the national security of the country in the medium term, a factor in preserving its statehood and sovereignty, an essential component of demographic policy, a prerequisite for implementing a strategic national priority - improving the quality of life of Russian citizens by guaranteeing high life-support standards. The strategic goal of food security is to provide the country's population with safe agricultural products, fish and other products obtained from aquatic biological resources and food.
