Importance In the conditions of the financial crisis and introduction of economic sanctions, there is a need to review the development strategy of agriculture in general and of an individual farm in particular. The results of the strategic management analysis of external environment may serve as information base for the review, and the article presents the main aspects of such analysis.
     Objectives The main objective of the research is to develop practical recommendations on the strategic management analysis of external environment of agricultural organizations under conditions of introducing innovative mechanisms of management and increasing efficiency and competitiveness.
     Methods To develop practical recommendations, we used the data of local offices of the Federal State Statistics Service of the Perm Krai, the Ministry of Agriculture of the Perm Krai, and financial statements of agricultural organizations of the Perm Krai.
     Results The practical importance of the research consists in the possibility to apply and use the obtained theoretical and methodological findings and results to work out strategies and programs of social and economic development of farms of the agro-industrial complex, and to improve the management practice of agrarian production under innovation development conditions.
     Conclusions and Relevance We tested the technique of complex assessment of trends in external (close-in) business environment of agricultural organizations of the Perm Krai as a combination of factors of their competitiveness formation within the Perm Krai and the Volga Federal District. In our study, we identified low competitiveness of agricultural entities of the Perm Krai at the Volga Federal District level, the main development trends in the agriculture, hunting and forestry sector, and strategic opportunities of farms for expanding the domestic sales markets for meat, dairy, eggs and vegetables. We obtained a database for assessing the main trends in the external (close-in) business environment of a farm, its competitive position, opportunities and risks of further development of agricultural production in the Perm Krai.
