Abstract

The work examines the influence of foreign markets on the spatial differentiation of vegetable prices in Russia using the example of regional tomato markets. To this end, a comparative assessment was made of the spatial differentiation levels of tomato prices calculated before the introduction of the food embargo, which prohibits, including the import of tomatoes from the EU, during the embargo and during the ban on the import of tomatoes from Turkey. The level of spatial differentiation of tomato prices was determined by calculating the volatility indicator. According to the results of the study, it was determined that foreign markets influence the spatial differentiation of tomato prices. Thus, the introduction of the food embargo in 2014 led to an increase in spatial price volatility, and the ban on the import of tomatoes from Turkey in 2016 further aggravated the situation. At the same time, the largest price reactions to the restriction of tomato imports in 2015 were observed in the Far Eastern, Siberian and central regions of the country, in 2016 - in the Volga, Ural and central regions.
