The Doctrine of Food Security of the Russian Federation, approved in a new edition by the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation No. 20 of January 21, 2020 [1], determines that this Doctrine is a strategic planning document, which reflects the official views on the goals, objectives and main directions of the state social economic policy in the field of food security of the Russian Federation. In paragraph 4, it is established that this Doctrine is the basis for the development of regulatory legal acts in the field of food security, development of agriculture and fisheries. It should be noted that this Doctrine (paragraph 5) takes into account the recommendations of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) on the share of imports and food stocks taken. Familiarization with the content of the Doctrine allows us to conclude that the Doctrine, according to the rules of normography [2] and legal technique [3], cannot be qualified as a legal act. It would be more correct to call this document as a concept for ensuring food security, which sets out general approaches to the formation of the main directions of state policy in the field of food security. The constituent parts of the concept are:
a) sustainable development of agricultural production based on medical indicators per capita;
b) ensuring the range, quality and safety of food products;
c) meeting the domestic needs of the Russian state in domestic agricultural products and increasing their volumes for export, which confirms the stability of the agricultural sector in the agri-food market in terms of ensuring food independence; d) increasing the economic availability of high-quality food products to form a healthy diet for all groups of the population; e) ensuring the physical availability of food products through the trade system, agri-food markets, catering facilities of various types.
