Abstract: The paper analyzes certain regional aspects of increasing the efficiency of agriculture based on the integrated use of zonal differences in soil fertility. It has been established that the natural and climatic conditions of the Ryazan region are relatively favourable for the cultivation of grain crops, potatoes, vegetables, perennial and annual grasses, horticulture, and fodder crops and livestock development. The author's proposals are also given on the introduction of a system of measures to optimize the structure of sown areas in relation to all natural and economic zones of the region under study. The forecast calculations showed that the food sustainability of the region will increase if the composition and ratio of food, technical and feed crops are diversified. The development of production of crops (soybeans, rapeseed) new to the region should be effectively combined with the norms recommended by science for sowing oats, millet, mustard, flax, perennial and annual herbs, etc. It is advisable to use measures of differential economic support for agricultural producers specializing in the cultivation of the most valuable food and technical crops.
