The study relevance is due to the fact that commodity lending is a fairly new procedure for agricultural producers in the state support. The study purpose is to diagnose the mechanisms of commodity lending in the livestock industries in the Samara region AIC and to develop methods for their optimization. Today, the current state of commodity lending is largely a prerequisite for the development of the economy and an integral element of the country's economic growth. At the same time, we propose to introduce a system of control over the use of funds aimed at commodity lending, grants, subsidies, state support, to optimize the purposefulness of the received commodity lending funds, in order to prevent their further use for other purposes. The recommendations will contribute to improving the process of commodity lending to the AIC, both in the medium and long term. Competent organization of the commodity lending process will ensure the uninterrupted and effective work of the SUE SR "Veles", the Ministry of Agriculture, agricultural producers in the field of commodity lending and, as a result, will strengthen the economy of the region as a whole. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
