Демографические вызовы развитию сельских территорий и кадровое обеспечение АПК
The article considers the demographic-institutional challenges of Russian rural
areas and their impact on staffing of the agro-industrial complex (AIC). The authors focus
on such key trends as depopulation, aging and urbanization, which reduce labor resources
in agriculture, on structural changes in the age and gender dynamics of rural population,
migration and degradation of social infrastructure (health, education, culture), which
exacerbates the shortage of personnel in agriculture. The article describes the impact
of demographic changes on the rural labor market in terms of growing latent unemployment,
archaization of employment and declining quality of human capital, and regional
differences in the demographic situation and their implications for sustainable rural development.
Based on statistical data, the authors predict a further decline in rural population
and a deterioration in its age structure, proposing such measures as the development
of rural infrastructure, labor mobility and modern technologies in agriculture.
