Abstract

Food supply for special consumers is the most dynamic subsystem of the system of procurement for power ministries and departments. In modern conditions, its functioning should take into account the peculiarities of the organizational structure of units and the nature of the tasks performed. The aim of the study is to systematize the existing methods for assessing the food security of the region and develop a methodological approach to assessing the food security of special consumers. As a result of the analysis of the existing methods for assessing the level of regional food security, conclusions were drawn about the absence of a single universal methodology for assessing food security, a variety of criteria and assessment indicators, the impossibility of unification, and comparative analysis by territories in accordance with their specificity and zoning. A conceptual diagram of an integrated assessment of the level of food security of special consumers is proposed.
