Abstract: The article analyzes the efficiency of using the main factors of agricultural production in the Novosibirsk region and based on the data obtained; promising technologies for improving efficiency are proposed. In addition to economic efficiency, these technologies should not harm agro ecosystems and support social well-being. These are the basic principles of sustainable agricultural production. Production functions were used as the main analysis tool. The analysis of the parameters of the constructed models showed that the increase in agricultural production in the region is due to the intensification and increase in the capacity of machinery and equipment. New agricultural machinery displaces labour from the production process. Such intensification of agricultural production, despite its economic efficiency, harms the environment. At the same time, the main factors of production – labour and capital are used inefficiently. Therefore, the priority technologies of agricultural production in the region should be technologies that increase its efficiency by saving resources, increasing labour productivity, as well as environmentally friendly. These are genetic technologies for increasing the productivity of farm animals and plants, agro ecological technologies and precision agriculture technologies.
