  2. Outline I Theoretical Framework II Results

  3. 1.1 Somestylizedfacts on the Russian agricultural sector • Some inefficient farms have been preserved • Some Corporate farms keep their social roles • Some Individuals farms develop social roles • Barriers to entry / inefficient economic rules (Csaki et al., 1996 ; Shagaïda, 2005 ; Brooks et al., 1994, 1996 ; Lerman (ed.) 2008 ; Serova, 2005, 2008) ; eyes on elections (Amelina, 2002) ; • Hybridation process (Wegren, 2005 ; O’Brien et al. 1998, 2004) Existence of multifunctionality of farms

  4. 1.2 Theoreticalapproch Multifunctionality Industrial Organization approach Patrimonial concepts Community of interest Commercial relationship and patrimonial relationship The concept of « productive configuration » can help us to understand all the strategies of actors and to link market and non-market productions according the institutional context Multifunctionality can be considered as strategies that economic actors apply in order to develop business and reproduce communities of interests in a highly competitive context

  5. 1.3 Empiricalwork • Goal : understandwhatkind of rolethe integration of farmsintovarioussupplychainsplays in their MFA strategy. • Problems in the statisticalanalysis • Not easy to identify the relation between agriculture and agro-foodindustry in Russianstatistics • The Soviet « troïka » representation of farmsdoes not evolve 50 interviews with farmers and agro-businessmen in the Orel Oblast’ Statistical tests to validate our typology

  6. Outline I Theoretical Framework II Results

  7. Typologie of FarmsAccording to the Goskomstat Data : Goskomstat, 2010

  8. Who are the actors of the transition in the agricultural sector? • The « Farmers » : individual farmers, managers of agroholdings (public or private), directors of corporate farms and owners of household plots. • Public actors : governor of Orel Region, department of agriculture from Orel Region, “Ministry” of agriculture • Private actors : Investor from work sector, from oil sector, from agribusiness sector, middlemen, individuals and communities which own plots of land.

  9. 2.1 Productive configurations

  10. 2.1 Productive configurations

  11. PrivateAgroholdings in the Orel Region

  12. 2.1 Productive configurations

  13. Example : Eksima Agro 20 corporate farms or factories in Russia (4 corporate farms in the Orel Region) 46 000 ha. of land (35 000 ha. Of arable land) Owner of Mikoân (a kolabassa manufactory, 20% of the Moscow delicatessen market) Feed production (760 million Rubles in 2009, 22 million euros) Eksima spent 75 million rubles (2,1 million euros) in housing, roads, gas networks and subsidies to public schools

  14. 2.1 Productive configurations

  15. Example : ONO Novosil’skoe • Looks for its outlets by itself • Signed a contract with a dairy factory in Tula (N. sells 90% of its milk production • The local household plots benefit from this commercial contract (at the same price)

  16. 2.2 typology of present corporate farms according to the transformations 20% of corporatefarms in the Orel Region

  17. 2.1 Productive configurations

  18. To conclude • Multifunctionality can be considered as a strategy to insure interests of a community of interests and to develop agricultural activities. • We observed four kinds of strategy which depend on the size and on the political position of the farmer • We observed that, in the Orel Region, the policies have been particularly helpful for the agribusiness investors • Then, Multifunctionality appears as the result of compromises between politicians, oligarchs and communities • We deconstructed categories of statistic in the aim to describe transformations in the agricultural sector and in all the supply chain
