The article deals with the important issues of increasing the efficiency of crop production in Russia. Material is presented on the size of cultivated lands for different types of crops and separately for cereals and legumes, the volume of gross production and yield. Issues of reduction and expansion of crops in the context of individual types of crops have been discussed. The prospects for the development of crop production in the short and medium-term horizons, taking into account various factors such as state support for agricultural producers, the creation and maintenance of favorable conditions for attracting investors, the search for new markets, emphasizing the importance of state support to expand access to foreign markets are identified. As indicators of the efficiency of crop production, information is presented in actual prices, including per 100 hectares of agricultural land and 100 hectares of arable land. The main agricultural crops that bring consistently high profits to agricultural producers – oilseeds – have been identified. At the same time, many farmers are looking for more and more opportunities to develop and grow alternative crops. And legumes, including chickpea, are seen by many farmers as such priority crops. Legumes have a number of advantages, including being attractive due to their high demand and price. In addition, these crops have other positive characteristics.
Keywords: agriculture, crop production, state support, forecasting, cultivated land, crop yield, gross production, production efficiency.
