The development of the Russian grain economy is an important part of implementing the federal food import substitution programme. The purpose of this study is to identify and analyse the spatial and temporal patterns of the grain economys transformation, trends in the change of sowing areas, and the ratio of the main grain crops across the regions of Russia. The dynamics of acreage and changes in the yield of grain crops within the main agricultural territory of Russia over the past two decades have been analysed. Spatial and temporal patterns of grain economy differentiation were identified, and the main directions of its development in different regions were analysed. The identified trends are shown by an increase in the territorial concentration of grain crops in areas with high natural agropotential. Russias role as the worlds largest exporter of grain, primarily wheat, is demonstrated. A critical assessment of the ongoing changes in the geography of the grain economy in various regions of Russia was provided, and the main directions for its development were identified. Further improvement of the territorial organisation of Russias grain economy involves developing a scientifically based programme for the industrys development to create conditions for the effective specialisation and territorial concentration of grain crops through the creation of specialised high–tech zones for the production of various types of grain.
