Abstract: In the current conditions of the new sanctions reality, the problem of the transfer of Russian enterprises and regions to the innovative stage of development has become relevant, which makes it necessary to focus strategic management on the intensification of intraregional interaction mechanisms in order to increase their investment attractiveness. Clusters can act as such a form of interaction. Today, active clustering processes are already being observed in the agro-industrial complex, however, of the many registered cluster projects, only a few are being implemented in practice. The key barriers to the widespread distribution of clusters are: methodological shortcomings, irrational separation of powers at the public and private levels, imperfection of the regulatory framework, lack of a single mechanism for regional integration processes based on clustering. The purpose of the work was to propose mechanisms for creating export-oriented cluster-type associations. The authors used monographic, abstract-logical and computational-constructive methods. As a result of the conducted research, the basic elements of organizational and economic mechanisms for the formation of an export-oriented cluster in the region were identified and structured on the platform of identified agricultural, processing and marketing enterprises with high export potential (participants of the protocluster), corporate programs of international competitiveness developed to ensure financing of export projects (insurance, banking services, export credits) by including in the institutional environment of the cluster servicing satellites (supplying organizations of educational, financial, credit and insurance spheres), coordinating structure (specialized organization of the cluster - the Center for Cluster Development). The paper also proposes a mechanism for strategic and operational management in agro-industrial cluster associations. The application of the developed mechanisms for creating cluster-type structures will ensure convergence of the interests of participating enterprises, harmonization of their production and commercial interactions, optimization of costs and commodity circulation processes, which, in turn, will lead to a significant reduction in the cost of production.
