Abstract: The article assesses the social and economic consequences of the market agrarian reforms in Russia in the context of food supply security, improving rural livelihood and social modernization of the Russian village. We analyze the Russia's food self-sufficiency, size of agricultural import, and food availability for different demographics. Dynamics of rural livelihood and the existing social structure of income are evaluated. We draw an inference that there are no economic and institutional preconditions to form and develop the middle class as a support for economic and social modernization of the village. The paper ends with a conclusion on the low social efficiency of market reforms in the agricultural sector of Russia
