The features of the regional differentiation of agricultural production in the Russian Federation are considered, given the existing climatic, financial and economic characteristics for 1990-2012. The natures of the variations of indicators of crop and livestock production are investigated, and an analysis of structural changes in the distribution of indicators of agricultural production by federal districts of Russia is conducted. The results of multidimensional classification are received in order to assess the level of development of the crop production in the regions of the country. The factors of crop production development are derived, and a regression model is built describing the influence of the derived factors on gross yield of grain and leguminous crops.
