Abstract: The article assesses the current practice of strategizing the processes of regional agricultural development. To obtain it, we used the method of content analysis of updated strategies for socio-economic development of regions, supplemented by a comparative analysis of the key tasks of agricultural development presented in them, the measures that public authorities intend to implement, and the results they expect. The object base of the analysis includes subjects of the Russian Federation that represent different Federal districts and have a pronounced agricultural orientation. Among them: Voronezh and Tambov regions, Krasnodar territory, the Republic of Altai, Bashkortostan, and TA-tarstan. The strengths of the practice include: setting the key tasks related to the digitalization of agricultural production, the development of intensive technologies based on the use of a new generation of agricultural machinery and technological equipment, the development of production of environmentally friendly products, export-oriented production, the development and commercialization of competitive innovative products and technologies, and reducing the impact of production on the environment; the establishment demanded in the task of measures the implementation of which involves about the regulation mechanism of state management of the economy (the use of project management co-building, breeding and genetic centers of crops, innovation clusters); the introduction of new performance indicators (volume of production of ecologically clean products, export of agricultural products, a number of innovative developments implemented in agriculture, etc.). The weak side of the practice is the limited invariant (common milking of different regions) composition of new tasks for the development of agriculture and the measures required in their implementation, which are associated with the introduction of new forms and tools of public administration.
