Abstract: As a result of the events of 2020–2022 and the introduction of mutual sanctions, the role of farming has increased as an essential part of the production structure of the agricultural industry of Russia and as a social group of significant importance for economic and social development and settlement of rural areas. At the same time, the role of farms both from the point of view of the economy and the social conditions they create in rural settlements has been little studied due to the lack of accessible financial reporting and the high labor intensity and complexity of field research. The existing official typology of farms and individual entrepreneurs is reduced to a legal classification according to the form of registration and the presence of assets (resources) in peasant (farmer) farms for conducting production activities – the area of farmland, the number of livestock, etc. These data allow us to distinguish large and small farms. But this is not enough to form a targeted policy and targeted support for the development of farming. The article is devoted to the analysis of indicators that can be used as the basis for the typology of farms in Russia.
