Results - the main elements of its construction in  agro-industrial complex of the republic are identified, the influencing factors are analyzed; shows the dynamics of “green” subsidies based on economic and mathematical modeling. The results achieved in various countries regarding the investment of new mechanisms for environmentally sustainable development are summarized. A calculated forecast model was obtained, taking into account possible risks, characterizing the expansion of the scope of environmental policy in the country.
