Features of Machine-Technological Stations Organization in the System of Agro-Industrial Production

Abstract

Abstract The creation of modern machine-technological stations (MTS) causes a lot of disputes about the effectiveness of their operation. The majority of MTS are commercial enterprises, independent of services consumers, which, in the conditions of decreasing equipment availability of agricultural producers, turned out to be monopolists comparing with them. Agricultural enterprises could not become founders of MTS and do not have the ability to influence on the activities of service enterprises directly. The efforts of the stations are greatly aimed to get their own profit and much lesser to increase the efficiency of served arms. Many experts have the opinion that the achievement of economic well-being of MTS often is due to the decreasing of the economy of services consumers. As a result of the direct economic effect of the MTS activity - the profits of agricultural producers are not yet available. The reason of this, in our opinion, is explained by the fact that the relations of stations are not connected with final results of agricultural production. The efficiency of their functioning will become economically viable only when their own profitable activities ensure the effectiveness of services for agricultural producers. The purpose of the research is to justify the need of creation machine-technological stations in the system of agroindustrial production.
