The analysis of structural shifts in the distribution of agricultural production in the Central black earth region (Central Chernozem region) indicates that the CCA in the areas disturbed were formed over decades specialized areas of agricultural production, which was one of the major reasons for the decline of production, its sustainability and effectiveness. Results: the conceptual positions on the formation of specialized zones of production of separate types of agricultural products through state regulation of the rational distribution of agricultural production aimed at deepening specialization and concentration of production, efficient use of land labor, material and financial resources, ensuring food security in the region.
