Multilevel Positioning of Agrarian-Territorial Systems
This article delves into the examination of natural, social and economic objects, specifically focusing on the agro-industrial complex and rural areas as parts of a single framework. Through the practical application of a systemic approach, we argue for considering these objects as integral components shaping agrarian-territorial systems (ATS), comprising three primary subsystems: natural, social, and economic. The objective is to stratify and position the ATS of Russian regions across multiple levels. The study hypothesizes that determining common developmental patterns among groups of heterogeneous agrarian-territorial formations is feasible through multilevel positioning. Results, derived from system analysis and multidimensional statistics, validate this hypothesis. The main outcome is an implemented method for multilevel positioning of regional ATS, accounting for intra-cluster and inter-cluster ratios of their key subsystems (economic, social, natural). This methodology makes it possible to identify general developmental patterns within Russia’s agrarian-territorial systems, offering insights applicable to the formulation and revision of subject- and object-differentiated ATS development programs.
