Анотація

The growth of scientific and practical interest in the problems of corporate social responsibility relates to the public demand for value orientations of modern life, which are based on the principles of democracy, objectivity and justice. The basis of multifunctional rural development should be recognized as the social responsibility of all stakeholders interested in improving the quality of rural residents’ lives. The purpose of the study is to conceptually reveal and substantiate the activation processes of corporate social responsibility in the rural development of Ukraine in the conditions of European integration. The methodological basis of the study is based on the use of various methods of scientific knowledge, in particular: abstract-logical, structural-functional, induction and deduction, concretization, and graphic methods. During the conducted research, an assessment of the level of corporate social responsibility was carried out based on the parameters of the increase in the volume of social expenses and their structure among business entities in the agricultural sector of Ukraine for 2014-2022. Using consolidated reporting (financial and non-financial) of the leading producers of agricultural products in Ukraine, a correlation-regression model was formed. An assessment of the impact on the social costs’ quantity of agricultural holdings of factors such as capital profitability, land profitability and the volume of net income per 1 ha of agricultural land was carried out. Based on the modelling results, it was established that the mentioned agricultural producers have the necessary financial resources to strengthen social activity in rural areas, primarily thanks to the rational use of land capital. The main results of the study are aimed at integrating the corporate social responsibility of agribusiness into all areas of life in rural areas, ensuring a combination of moral and ethical, and socio-economic foundations of rural development.
