The aim of the article is to identify the most important areas of ensuring food security in foreign countries and Russia based on the development of the milk and dairy products market. The main organization performing the task of providing the population with high-quality products is the Food and Agriculture Organization United Nations - FAO. The authors analyze the production and processing of milk, the productivity and number of cows, and the condition of the feed base. An analysis of the development of the feed base indicates that the specific feed intake in Russia is 1.4-1.5 times higher than in developed countries. This problem can be solved through the intensification of field fodder production and the radical improvement of natural forage lands. To increase the efficiency of the industry and develop the market for milk and dairy products, the authors consider it appropriate to implement a set of measures, such as state interest, development of feed production, re-equipment of processing enterprises and the creation of new high-quality products, equalization of per capita incomes.
