Assessing the investment appeal of the agricultural-industrial complex of Krasnodar krai under sanctions
This article assesses the investment attractiveness of the agro-industrial complex (AIC) of Krasnodar Krai under sanctions imposed by unfriendly states. It was determined that following the events of 2022, investment in fixed capital in agriculture significantly declined (by 20.5% from 2021 to 2025), and the financial condition of agricultural enterprises in Krasnodar Krai worsened.
