The paper investigates the interdependence and interrelation of the value of monetary and non-monetary expenditure incurred for the maintenance of private peasant farms functioning, with other socio-economic factors and differentiation of rural population food consumption in the regional context, namely on the case of the Volyn region of Ukraine. Based on the results of our study, it was found that households in which incapacitated persons predominate directly to provide much more financial, labor and other resources for the functioning of their own peasant households, that is, in such households, the activity on their own peasant households is dominant, the main one. The results of the study give grounds to claim that the peasant farms in Ukraine lose their previously dominant function - self-procuring of foodstuffs for personal consumption, transforming, gradually acquiring a new qualitative value, which in the case of successful economic decisions to further develop this organizational and legal form of management effectively adapt it to new economic conditions.
