Abstract: The article presents a methodology for identifying interregional differences in the levels of development of the domestic food and processing industry, assessing their impact on the export potential of the industry in the regions and substantiating proposals to identify new "growth points" of the food industry in the agro-food complex of the country. The dynamics of food exports and imports for the period from 2010 to 2020 is analyzed according to the federal districts of the Russian Federation, which made it possible to identify uneven export growth at the same time with virtually unchanged imports, against the background of a disproportionate increase in production in the food industry over the same period of time. A general integral indicator developed earlier by the author is proposed as a generalizing indicator of interregional differences. Using statistical analysis methods, it is proved that interregional differences have an impact on the absolute indicators of food exports. The proposals on differentiation of state support for regional "growth points" in the agro-industrial complex are presented, provided that the country's food security is ensured.
