Factors of pricing of agricultural products

Introduction. Price is the main factor that has a direct impact on results of enter­prises, especially agricultural. The pricing policy able to maintain competitiveness enter­prise, ensure its solvency and stability. Problem. Pricing carried out in complex interaction set internal external Factors. corresponding complexity phenomenon leads need include many Factors model, which can negatively affect result. numerous number necessitate use methods allow identification most statistically significant assess their relationship with resulting feature. aim article identify influence formation change price agricultural products using Factor analysis. Methods. Different such as mathe­matical statistical (factor analysis, principal component), economic (multiple regression method based scores) generalization were applied article. Results. application analysis components determine influencing prices. author used different dimensionality reduction obtained three components: supply, demand, po­pulation. This helped reveal between variables without multicol­linearity problem. Conclusions. ana­lysis component method; it take into account peculiarities relationships indicators characterize potato pricing, eliminate multi­collinearity independent indicators, get fewer common than original variables, obtain quantitative assessment latent variable. orthogonal rotation distribute load all more evenly, simp­lified further interpretation save 95 % total primary information after rota­tion reduce fea­ture space, high indicator for prac­tical tasks.
