4. The findings obtained in the theoretical section Foreign direct investment is an investment in which an investor resident in one country (donor country) places its assets in another country (the host country), subject to receipt (conservation) of control over these assets. Foreign investors when investing direct capital in another country, have the right of ownership to the enterprise invested and, accordingly, the right of control over its production activities and distribution of products. Analysis of foreign direct investment in agriculture of Ukraine testifies to their small volume. According to specialists, the investment required for this sector of the economy is about 7 billion USD. The small volume of FDI in agricultural production of Ukraine is explained, first of all, by the peculiarities of the investment process in this field. Agriculture is too risky sector for investments, because it is influenced by a variety of exogenous factors that man is hardly able to control (natural disasters, epidemics, pests and diseases of agricultural plants and animals).
