Abstract: The article presents strategic indicators for the development of the agricultural sector of the Rostov region, taking into account industry priorities for the medium-term (2025-2027) and long-term (2028-2030) period. The strategic indicators include the main types of agricultural products: grain, sunflower, sugar beet, vegetables, potatoes, milk, varieties of all types of meat, eggs, the increase in production volumes of which will ensure the formation of the agro industrial pole of Russia in the region. The information and analytical base of the study was the indicators of agricultural production in agricultural and peasant (farmer) farms, including individual entrepreneurs, for the period 2008-2021. The justification of the strategic indicators of the production of the main types of food was carried out according to two key scenarios: inertia and target – depending on the volume of financing of the industry from the federal and regional budgets. Our calculations have shown that in the medium and long term, agricultural organizations will focus in crop production on increasing the production of the least labor-intensive types of products: grain, sugar beet and sunflower, in animal husbandry, high growth rates of production volumes will be provided due to the development of the pig industry, the restoration of poultry in large agricultural formations, state incentives to increase livestock meat breeds. The long-term trend in the development of peasant (farm) farms will be associated with the development of meat and dairy cattle breeding, as well as the increase in the production of industrial and grain crops, potatoes and vegetables. In general, strategic guidelines for the development of the regional livestock industry in agricultural organizations and peasant (farmer) farms require a rethinking of the directions of state support.
