Abstract: The purpose of the study was to analyze the dynamics of changes in the profitability of agricultural production in the North-West regions in modern economic conditions. The financial results of organizations operating in crop production and animal husbandry in the whole country are considered. The dynamics of a decrease in the share of unprofitable organizations and an increase in the amount of profit per 1 organization, a higher level of profitability of crop production and the degree of its variation over the years than in animal husbandry are shown. By grouping the subjects of the Russian Federation according to the level of profitability (loss-making) of all agricultural organizations, significant positive spatial changes in the average Russian level of profitability of products and in the regions of the Northwest have been identified. This is the result of years of subsidizing industries during the implementation of government Programs. Based on a comparative assessment of the trends in profitability of production in the context of the Northwestern Federal District regions in recent years, their lag in the level of profitability of products sold from the indicator in the whole country, as well as the processes of sharp territorial differentiation in restoring the profitability of the industry to date, have been noted. Therefore, it is necessary to pay special attention to territorial imbalances in the profitability of products in territories with less favorable conditions for agribusiness, which will allow timely influence on the economic situation in the industry.
