The current conditions of international cooperation on export-import policy and the development of the country’s domestic economy require special attention to ensuring food security, especially in relation to animal breeding products, which occupy a significant share in the volume of imports in the Russian Federation. The high degree of differentiation of regions in terms of the development of agricultural production due to differences in climatic conditions and historically determined sectoral characteristics of production are the basis of the relevance of a close study of the conditions and development potential of beef cattle breeding at the regional level. This paper contains a statistical analysis of the conditions for ensuring food security in the Samara Region as a territory that has a high resource potential for livestock breeding, but does not fully realize it, turning into an import-dependent market. Based on the application of the grouping method, analysis of time series, and correlation analysis, the region features, livestock production trend are identified, the main factors affecting the food independence of the region are established.
