Abstract: 

This article discusses how to transform ecological and economic face of Russia and its regions in the post-Soviet period. The latest trends in environmental management and its territorial organization have been presented. The volumes of subsurface natural material extraction have been calculated on the regional level. It was revealed that the prevalence of the gardening border in agriculture has shifted from dry steppes in the 1980s up to tundra today. As a result, the extent of agricultural impacts on natural systems has changed. The widening gap between diminishing factors of agricultural production (acreage, fertilizers, machinery and livestock) and its relatively stable productivity has been identified. These imbalances lead to the degradation of agricultural landscapes.
