The purpose of the research is to conduct a comparative analysis of rapeseed production in the territory of the Russian Federation and the Kemerovo region. During 2011-2019, on the territory of the Russian Federation (RF) and the Kemerovo region, a comparative analysis of the sown area, yield, gross harvest of spring rape was carried out. The research results showed that over the past 9 years, from 2011 to 2019, the sown area, both in the Russian Federation and in the Kemerovo Region, has doubled. At the same time, there is a strong variation in this indicator. The variation coefficient ranged from 43.3% to 54.1%. On the territory of the Russian Federation and in the Kemerovo region, an increase in the yield of spring rape is observed by 1.13 times and 1.04 times, respectively. It was revealed that an increase in the gross harvest of spring rape seeds occurs on the basis of an extensive development of production due to an increase in the sowing area and yield.

This article describes the analysis of existing problems and defining promising directions for the development of the agro-industrial export potential of the Kemerovo Region (Kuzbass) based on systematic-dialectical approach involving the consideration of factors that contribute to development and counteract it. The most significant factors contributing to the growth of the export potential of Kuzbass agro-industrial products were the presence of developed processing base, industry research and educational centers, as well as a regional center for supporting the export of Kuzbass agro-industrial products. The main factors affecting this process were: insufficient production of agricultural raw materials which are necessary for processing industry in the region, underdeveloped logistics infrastructure, lack of specialists with competencies in the export of agro-industrial products. The prospects for the growth of agro-industrial export by Kuzbass enterprises are associated with overcoming the shortage of raw materials on the basis of regional integration and stimulating domestic production, developing marketing and logistics infrastructure, and training personnel with export competencies. Keywords-export of domestic agro-industrial products, method of systematic-dialectical analysis, factors affecting the development of region's export potential.
