Theoretical Aspects of Economic Essence and Institutional Principles of Development of the Meat Market of Ukraine

Anotace: The purpose of the article is to study and substantiate the theoretical foundations of the development of the market of meat and meat products of Ukraine and the ways of its development, taking into account industry and territorial features. According to the results of the study, it is established that the market of meat and meat products of Ukraine should be considered as one of the segments of the integrated food market; as a complex institutional system in which a set of objective economic laws operates; as a system of interaction of economic agents arising under the influence of supply and demand. Assessment of the functioning of the national market of meat and meat products suggests that it does not have any features of a developed market as an elaborate production and economic system.
