The directions of the ecological-oriented development of enterprises of the agro-industrial complex have been analyzed through the implementation of the principles of rational resource consumption. The purpose of the article is to form the scientific basis for the effective use of non-renewable resources by enterprises of the agro-industrial complex in modern economic conditions. A study has been conducted on the causes of waste accumulation in agricultural enterprises and the stages of the greening mechanism of the enterprise functioning have been analyzed. The mechanism of greening the functioning of an enterprise has been considered on the basis of an analysis of the stages, which implies the consistent introduction of technologies and equipment, which makes it possible to reduce the negative impact of agricultural enterprises on the environment.On the basis of the developed general strategy of the enterprise in the field of resource consumption, two models of resource management of an agricultural enterprise have been presented through the use of insourcing and outsourcing tools. The model using insourcing tools assumes the reorientation of the company’s own assets, that are not used in production activities for the cleaning and processing of secondary resources. The model with the use of outsourcing tools assumes the involvement of third-party organizations for the collection and processing of waste in secondary resources. The range of effective implementation of the proposed models in the activities of an agricultural enterprise has been determined. The importance of advanced management training in the field of agricultural economics in the interests of sustainable development of the agro-industrial complex has been denoted and proposals from the State University of Management (SUM) in this area have been presented. The Department of Environmental Management and Environmental Safety has proposed the preparation of masters for the implementation of all activities stipulated by the educational standard in the field of agro-ecological management. The structure of the proposed educational program “Agroecological Management” contains disciplines (modules) of a theoretical and applied nature, that are relevant for the study by specialists of the agro-industrial complex in accordance with the need to solve modern environmental problems.

Currently, the problem of environment-focused use of resources in the agricultural enterprises relevant, as one of the ways to meet the resource requirements is the use of secondary resources. The article presents the results of the analysis of lubricants consumption by agricultural enterprises of the Rostov region. On the basis of the information processing array data on the qualitative and quantitative state of machines and tractors park of agricultural enterprises of the Rostov region developed a conceptual model of a closed secondary resources cycle, assuming the implementation of the rational use of secondary resources scenarios, based on environment-focused approach to the consumption of lubricants. This article demonstrated the results of the analysis of the scenario approach to the use of secondary resources, such as waste oils. For each scenario identified the alleged economic and environmental effects of the regeneration of waste oils and their uses. In conclusion, the authors provide recommendations for the development of technological capabilities of agricultural enterprises based on environment-focused approach.

The problem of reducing environmental risks in the process of functioning of the transport enterprise has been considered. The causes of risks due to wear and tear of vehicles have been analyzed. The directions of reducing environmental risks through the use of piggyback transportation of cargo have been considered. The economic and ecological advantages of using this method of transportation organization in order to reduce the volume of emissions of pollutants into the environment during the operation of vehicles have been analyzed. Based on the study of the functioning of a typical transport enterprise from the perspective of eco-oriented development, two potential strategies of the enterprise, based on the mechanisms of using secondary resources, have been presented.
