Abstract: The article is devoted to the consideration of the issues of macroeconomic management of the placement and specialization of certain sub-sectors of agriculture of the border geostrategic Central macro-region of the Non-Chernozem zone of the Russian Federation in the context of the development of a common agro-food market in the integration process with the Republic of Belarus. The analysis of the state of cooperation between the subjects of the Russian-Belarusian border shows that both of them do not sufficiently use logistical proximity for more effective management of specialization and concentration of agricultural production, since the indicators characterizing it are not higher than the average country parameters. One of the essential features of the functioning of the Belarusian-Russian agricultural borderland is the radiation pollution of the territories of the subjects under consideration, which leaves its imprint on the system of agriculture and farming, requiring close macroeconomic management intervention, insufficient at present. To change this situation, it is recommended to create a single management body for the contaminated territories of the Union state, with the formation of a kind of decontamination agrarian economy here. Different results of agrarian reform in the Russian Federation and the BR, including in the border territories, indicate that in Belarus, so-called "points of outstripping growth" are being identified, the basis of which is a socio-economic mechanism of an integration nature, when the agricultural production of goods of a number of industries has reached an export-oriented level here, with the export of this products to all continents of the world. Such a scientific macroeconomic approach of Belarusians is a visual algorithm for improving managerial relations.
