Abstract
Ensuring the quality and safety of food products remains one of the key tasks of state policy in the field of food security. This article examines the main legal mechanisms regulating the production and circulation of food products in Russia. Special attention is paid to the analysis of current legislation, including Federal Law No. 29-FZ "On the Quality and Safety of Food Products," as well as subordinate acts aimed at protecting consumer health. The main threats to food security are highlighted, such as import dependence and the spread of low-quality and counterfeit products. The measures taken by the state under federal and regional programs, including in the agro-industrial complex, to strengthen the country's food independence are discussed. The authors emphasize the need to enhance legal regulation and improve the system for controlling product quality. Monitoring results are provided as examples, revealing a significant number of food products that do not meet established standards, including products intended for children and special dietary use. Specific measures are proposed, including mandatory certification, personal responsibility of officials, modernization of laboratory equipment, and educational efforts among the population. The authors also raise the issue of developing a Federal Law "On Food Security of the Russian Federation" to formally consolidate key principles and mechanisms for ensuring the safety of the food market. Thus, the article highlights pressing issues and offers solutions through the improvement of the legal framework and enforcement practices aimed at enhancing the quality of life and strengthening national food sovereignty.
