Abstract: Optimal placement of agricultural production is a successful guarantee of providing the population not only with affordable and high-quality domestic food, but also preserving the rural way of life and employment of the population. Currently, large organizations, absorbing small producers, peasant farms, and private farms in rural areas, deprive local residents of jobs, destroying the competitive environment in the sale of agricultural products. In modern conditions, the placement of agricultural production is mostly spontaneous and is accompanied by competition. In order to preserve the way of rural life, employment of the population, the attractiveness of work in rural areas, providing the population with quality and affordable food, it is proposed to expand and update existing agricultural towns through state regulation, as well as create new ones in localities based on advanced agricultural organizations. It is impossible to solve the problem of optimal placement of agricultural production without legislative consolidation of the concept of «agro-industrial complex», which should receive a status at all levels of management.
