Efficient use of production potential is a strategic priority for ensuring dynamic and sustainable development of the agro-industrial complex of Russia. In this regard, there is an objective need to conduct scientific research, evaluative monitoring, study the directions and factors that ensure rational use of the resource base and contribute to increasing the profitability of developing the production potential, taking into account the requirements and principles of functioning of agriculture in modern conditions. The purpose of the author’s research is to study the basic postulates, conceptual theoretical provisions, assess the current state and identify key trends in the development of the resource base and production capabilities of agricultural organizations. The article provides the author’s justification for the presented theoretical interpretations of the concepts of “resource potential” and “production potential”. Conclusions are presented based on the results of the analysis of the production potential of agricultural enterprises of the Oryol region for the period 2015 - 2023, which are presented in the form of monitoring the current state of available resources and the dynamics of production volumes. It is concluded that the emerging positive trend of increasing the efficiency of using the production potential of agricultural organizations in the region is associated with achievements in the development of individual areas and industries, including crop production and livestock farming, optimal use of resources and attracting investment. The theoretical and practical significance of the obtained research results lies in the possibility of using them to conduct a comprehensive assessment monitoring of the development of production potential in the agricultural sector of the agro-industrial complex of the regions of the Russian Federation.

Social entrepreneurship as a special type of business is aimed at reducing social tension in society, ensuring employment, accessibility and variety of social services. Most social entrepreneurs in Russia belong to the category of small businesses. Improving state regulation of the development of small social entrepreneurship helps to reduce the severity of social problems and strengthen interaction between the state and business on this issue. The purpose of the article is to assess trends in the development of small social entrepreneurship in the country, current measures of state regulation and develop proposals for their improvement. The study revealed trends in the development of small businesses in the social sphere in Russia, reflecting high growth rates in the number of small social entrepreneurship entities, its spread to various areas of activity with a predominance in the areas of education, social services and sports and leisure. The growth in the number of social entrepreneurs is mostly observed in large conglomerations. However, the continuing low share of social enterprises in the total number of small businesses in the country, the analysis of the implemented measures of state support for them, does not allow us to draw a conclusion about the sufficiency of the conditions created in the country for the support and promotion of social entrepreneurship. State regulation of the development of small social entrepreneurship is proposed to be carried out in the direction of improving the institutional environment, expanding the range of entities that ensure the development and promotion of small businesses in the social sphere.
