Subject. This article examines the impact of the natural and economic conditions and factors of Russia's regions on the development of agriculture.
Objectives. The article aims to assess the role of climate forcing in the development of agriculture.
Methods. For the study, I used the binning technique. An author-developed spatial database of Russia's regions for 2017–2019 was used as an information resource. The cadastral value of one hectare of agricultural land was used as an analytical expression of the natural and economic conditions of business activities.
Results. The article describes a directly proportional dependence of and relationships between natural-and-economic conditions and achieved results in the production and consumption of quality products per capita.
Conclusions. It is advisable to increase the amount of government support for regions with unfavorable production conditions, develop the competitive potential of the majority of farms in relation to products that are profitable for producers and consumers.

Keywords: strategic planning, natural and economic conditions, physical availability, economic affordability, product quality
