Abstract: This article analyzes the development of dairy cattle breeding in a large subject of the Russian Federation, the Vologda region in the XXI century. The main indicators of milk productivity and production volumes were studied, statistical processing of digital arrays, including correlation analysis, was carried out. It is noted that in the Vologda Oblast, as well as in the North-Western Federal District and in the Russian Federation, milk production had a positive vector of intensification of many indicators, which was associated with regional favorable conditions for the development of the industry. Which include both autochthonous (forage base) and anthropogenic factors (zoned cattle breeds, breeding work, balanced feeding). Indicators of gross dairy production, milk yield of cows, the narrative of genetic and breeding potential indicate sufficiently high regional indicators of dairy cattle breeding. Currently, enterprises with herds of dairy cattle have been established here, which are not inferior in terms of milk yield to well-known European lines. An increase in the volume of dairy products has always been given great importance, but in modern economic and sanctions conditions, an increase in the productivity of the dairy herd is becoming particularly relevant. The analysis of the development and effectiveness of the dairy industry of the Vologda Oblast makes it obvious that the region is a possible platform for the implementation of innovative methods of feed production, breeding work, increasing the genetic potential of livestock in order to disseminate the results obtained in other regions of the country.
