Logistics of temperature-sensitive cargoes as a factor of agro-industrial complex development

The article is devoted to the study of the dynamics of changes in exports in the market of temperature-sensitive cargoes in the period from 2019 to 2023, the impact of the organization of their transportation on the development of agro-industrial complex in modern conditions.

Materials of open sources of the Internet, methods of system analysis and statistics were used.

On the basis of the analysis of statistical and reporting data of export of agro-industrial complex products, the main positions of supplied products, the countries-importers of Russian foodstuff s and the types of rolling stock of railway transport used in the supply chains were identified. The ways to increase transportation volumes through the use of advanced technologies are proposed.

The main types of export products of the agro-industrial complex are: cereals, fish and seafood, fats and oils of animal or vegetable origin, alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, meat and edible meat by-products. The main importing countries of Russian thermosensitive cargo from the Russian Federation in the period under review from 2019 to 2023 are China, Turkey, Kazakhstan, Middle East and African countries. To ensure the quality of supplied temperature-sensitive cargoes and their nutritional value, it is necessary to use specialized rolling stock that preserves or maintains the temperature mode of transportation along the entire route.
