Abstract. In the present article the current condition of the sphere of agro-industrial complex (AIC) in Russia is analyzed. The authors reveal the main problems and propose their solutions which are relevant at the present stage. The authors also highlight the need to activate the creation of complex innovative system which would allow modernizing agro-industrial complex of Russia taking into account regional features. It is proved that the policy of import substitution realized in Russia assumes the development of competitive domestic production. Taking into account the problems of ensuring food security in the conditions of the increasing external threats, implementation of innovative projects in the AIC is necessary. At the same time, according to the authors, the institutional Russian conditions of implementing the projects connected with production capable to replace import analogs created during the last 2 years, have considerably expanded a range of the factors and conditions determining the potential of competitive import substitution in the AIC. The authors consider realization of cluster policy to be among the important directions of realization of competitive potential of import substitution in the AIC. This policy allows to carry out innovative projects, involving in them subjects with low technological ways and to promote their modernization on the basis of association and rational addition of potentials of participants. The article emphasizes that today, taking into account new geopolitical and geoeconomic conditions, the state should revise the concept of development of agriculture in short- and medium-term perspective. It is necessary to include the economic specialization of agroindustrial type for regions where agriculture is a key branch, in the documentation on strategic development.
Key words: AIC, sanctions, innovative system, import substitution, clusters, strategy, development, modernization.
