The article considers the scientific problem of balancing the system of strategic planning for the development of the agricultural sector, the compliance of the level of planned work with new tasks in the field of providing the population with affordable products and achieving rational consumption standards. The purpose of the article is to substantiate modern approaches and methods of strategizing the agricultural sector that contribute to enhancing the convergence of physical and economic availability of products. When assessing the suitability of strategic approaches, we proceeded from the need to implement planning procedures at the industry (federal) and territorial levels. It was revealed that of those proposed by science and tested in practice, the most significant, taking into account the current realities, are the program-target, object-oriented, project and foresight approaches. The possibilities of their comprehensive application in the process of forming strategies and implementing programs in agriculture are shown. Scientific developments are useful for participants in strategic planning for preparing management decisions in the process of forecasting and planning the socio-economic development of the agricultural sector as a basic area for providing the population with affordable and high-quality products.
