Abstract: The main trade partners within mutual trade in agro food products in EEU are Russia and Belarus. In article features of development of foreign trade in food products and agricultural raw materials of these two countries are considered; top trends in foreign trade are revealed; an assessment is given to the main directions of mutual agrarian export. Estimating the prospects of development of the Russian export of agro food products, it is noted that goals can be achieved of increase in volumes of export up to 45 billion US dollars due to primary increase in export of products with high extent of processing, but not due to export of agricultural raw materials. The Russian agrarian and industrial complex has the considerable potential of increase in production of food products with high extent of processing which can be realized, carrying out construction of the hi-tech enterprises of the food industry that will demand not only increases in investments into production base, but also in innovative developments.
