Abstract

In this article the author describes the main functions of agriculture from the perspective of the reindeer husbandry industry in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia): industrial, geopolitical, environmental, socio-cultural and economic.
From a practical point of view, the analysis helps to take into account the features of the multifunctional industry and form an additional source of information to ensure the development of the territory of the Far North, including to improve the program of state support for the development of agriculture.
The authors also notes that in recent years the industry has been characterized by stagnation. The main reasons for the stagnation of livestock are: outdated material and technical base in reindeer herding farms, reindeer grazing, low level of staffing, various animal diseases.
