Abstract
The relevance of this research topic is that the fundamental economic transformations occurring in the agrarian sphere of our country are reflected in the social development of rural areas. Geopolitical changes also contribute to this, affecting the competitive advantages of agro-industrial enterprises. However, despite the ongoing processes of socio-economic stabilization in the country, the situation of rural youth remains quite unstable. The key problems faced by rural youth remain unchanged: placement and employment, housing, and, of course, social adaptation to rural living conditions. As practice shows, a developed social structure positively influence the stability of the rural population, but in a comprehensive solution to these issues.
This article examined relevant literature, defines youth as a social group, and discusses the term "rural youth" as the main resource for replenishing the production sphere in rural areas. In order to assess the level of satisfaction with living conditions of rural youth, the authors conducted a questionnaire study in rural areas of southern Tyumen region in 2024. The findings allowed them to create a ranking the main issues faced by rural youth.
The study concludes that rural youth are a crucial link in the development of agriculture and the agro-industrial complex, as the future of the food market hinges on their participation. Thus, rural youth can be regarded a "hidden resource" that must become socially active in addressing existing problems. Therefore, the revival of the "Russian village" and the future of rural areas significantly depends on rural youth and their potential.
