Abstract: The development of biological resources in the Arctic is due to the fact that today almost all free water areas of the World Ocean are already divided between countries and against the background of a decrease in the total reserves of biological resources, each state seeks to develop those water areas that are in their jurisdiction, for Russia this includes the Arctic Seas. Ensuring the national interests of the Russian Federation in the Arctic zone, creating conditions for increasing the efficiency of development and extraction of aquatic biological resources, protecting natural areas and preserving marine ecosystems, protecting the habitat and traditional way of life of indigenous peoples, mutually beneficial cooperation are the main priorities state policy of Russia. Insufficient knowledge of the Arctic zone, which requires large financial costs for scientific research, poses problems for us, the solution of which will reveal the main directions of increasing the efficiency of using the raw material base of Russian fishing in the Arctic zone of the Russian. To create the necessary conditions for conducting profitable commercial fishing in the Arctic zone, it is necessary to develop a Target program for the development of biological resources of the Arctic zone of Russia, where the required volume of investments will be determined, which will show the scale and timing of the implementation of program activities.
