Assessment of factors for the increase in the productivity of grain crops

Grain production is a strategic element of the agricultural and food complex in Russia, which predetermines its fundamental importance security. The task increase level grain yields still urgent, despite full satisfaction needs domestic market Russia due to benefits from exports. authors assess influence intensification processes on yield taking into account elimination scale factor. During research such statistical methods as correlation-regression cluster were used analysis tools. revealed pattern that higher costs per 1 hectare crops provided correspondingly yield. In context total large grain-sowing companies with an area 4 11 thousand hectares, relatively high elasticity was (0.87), than group medium-sized (from 2 hectares) by 0, 37 points. factor had significant process respectively. model relationship between size cultivated areas qualitatively described parabola degree stochastic relationship. maximum value reached 5 10 while very lower at average for region.
