The article considers the level of economic efficiency of the agro-industrial complex of the Sverdlovsk region. The purpose of the study, based on an analysis of the main indicators characterizing structural imbalances, is to develop recommendations for increasing the economic efficiency of the agro-industrial complex of the Sverdlovsk region. The object of this study is the agro-industrial complex of the Sverdlovsk region, and the subject is business processes that ensure the development of the agro-industrial complex of the Sverdlovsk region and factors affecting them. The methodological aspect of the analysis of the effectiveness of the agro-industrial complex includes a comprehensive assessment that combines quantitative and qualitative indicators that reflect economic and social aspects. The information base is formed on the basis of external (international, regional statistics) and internal sources (reporting by agricultural enterprises). Analysis of the key components of the use of the gross regional product (GRP) of the Sverdlovsk region for the period 2022-2024 was carried out. As part of the assessment of the effectiveness of the agro-industrial complex of the Sverdlovsk region, an analysis of key indicators was carried out including: the structure of municipalities and urban districts; formation of profits and costs of the agro-industrial complex; structure (production) of gross agricultural output of the agro-industrial complex; employment of workers in the agricultural sector; livestock; development of poultry sub-complex. One of the problems identified is the imbalance between production growth and the reduction in the number of employees, which may indicate an increase in labor productivity, but also potential problems with staffing the industry in the long term. In addition, an increase in production and sales costs, despite the growth of gross output, may reduce the profitability of individual farms and require further analysis to identify the reasons for the increase in costs and develop measures to optimize them.
