Abstract: The strategic development of grain production in modern conditions is an important aspect of the state agrarian policy, and the mechanisms that ensure it should be focused on the long term. Already, in some advanced farms, including the Nizhny Novgorod region, we note gradual changes in agrotechnological processes based on the introduction of digital technologies. However, the digital transformation of production in agriculture, including the grain industry, faced a number of factors restraining its development, the main of which is that farms are at different levels of digital maturity, which indicates the relevance of our chosen research direction. At the same time, based on a critical analysis of methods for assessing digital maturity, it was found that existing ones are poorly applicable to grain production due to the specifics of its agricultural technology, which indicates the need to develop a methodological algorithm for analyzing digital maturity of grain production in the region (including analysis in three areas of agrotechnological processes, field mapping, crop monitoring,) and a scale of digital maturity levels of grain production in the region to interpret the results obtained. As a result of the application of the author's methodological algorithm, on a scientific basis, municipalities of the Nizhny Novgorod region were distributed according to the level of digital maturity and a cartogram of the digital maturity of grain production in the region was compiled, and it was also established that peripheral centers for the development of digital maturity of grain production were formed in the region
