PROMOTION OF AGRICULTURAL EXPORTS FROM THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
The active promotion of agricultural exports of the United States as the world`s leading country in agricultural production has been based on a flexible combination of various elements of systemic support, encouragement and assistance to this sector of the economy from the state for many years. For scientific consideration of the process of the promotion evolution of American agricultural exports as an economic phenomenon, a study was conducted to identify trends and forms of stimulating the export of US agricultural products in the period 1946-2019. A theoretical analysis of the problem of the appropriate combination of means, tools and methods of their implementation allowed us to find out a number of effects of stimulating US agricultural exports. Based on the use of historical, abstract-logical, and statistical-economic research methods, the author shows a significant and decisive role of stimulating US agricultural exports in the formation of its volume and positive trade balance. Structural complement of direct and indirect measures to stimulate exports of US agricultural products at certain stages, allocated within the considered time period, contributed to the active development of large export-oriented American agricultural producers by a competent combination of financial-market and direct distribution (dirigisme) approaches.
