Abstract: The purpose of the study is to study and compare price trends in the market of agricultural products and used resources as the main criterion for achieving financial stability of the agricultural sector. The methodological base of the research is represented by the integrated use of such methods of scientific knowledge as monographic, monitoring studies, system analysis, economic comparisons, graphical techniques, dynamic analysis. The results of the conducted research indicate the existing price imbalances for agricultural products and industrial goods used in the production activities of farmers. In recent years, this disparity in prices has only intensified. Against the background of rapidly rising prices for used resources, unstable and low prices for agricultural products, the profitability of agricultural producers has significantly decreased. The Russian agricultural sector, taking into account the existing price imbalances, is becoming unattractive for investment. Agribusiness does not have the financial resources to actively modernize and technologically re-equip the industry. And high rates on credit products do not contribute to solving this issue. These negative trends make the industry's transition to a new innovative and technological level extremely difficult in the near future. The current situation requires the elaboration and implementation of a set of measures by the state to regulate price relations in the industry.
