Abstract: The article presents an analysis of foreign publications, based on which the most common causes, patterns and connections of agricultural crises with other crisis manifestations in the economy, social and political spheres are identified. The results of the study are presented in the form of the periodization of economic crises with the inclusion of the most characteristic factors described in the literature review. The following crisis periods are highlighted: the crisis of 1992-1994 (due to the beginning of market reforms), the default of 1998, the crisis of 2008-2009 (as a result of the global financial crisis), the crisis of 2014-2015 (due to the introduction of sanctions and insufficient implementation of measures to eliminate the causes of the previous economic downturn), the crisis of 2017-2018 (as a result of tougher economic sanctions and falling energy prices), the crisis of 2020 (caused by lockdown and the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic). The volatility of the Russian agriculture indicators is calculated and explained. It is established that in General, the dynamics over 30 years shows a reduction in agricultural production. The highest rates of decline were recorded in 1991 (-50‰) and in 1992 (-60.2‰). As of 2019, the volume of agricultural production amounted to 28.6‰ of the base level of 1990. It is noted that the political and economic transformations that took place in the early 1990s led to a significant decline in the industry, and the country cannot eliminate their consequences to this day.
