The introduction of links with row crops in the Stavropol territory is associated with the assessment of the territory resource potential. The monitoring of changes in the area under row crops in various soil and climate zones of the region over the eleven period (2008-2018) showed that a significant increase was established in the arid zone, zones of unstable and sufficient moisture by 5.0, 6.3 and 5.4 thousand hectares, respectively. Accepted criteria for the survey areas of the region: humus content in the arable layer, %; presence of saline, %; the relative indicator of the hydrothermal coefficient of the spring-summer period and the energy availability of equipment, allow using certain mathematical operations to calculate a generalized indicator of the resource potential of the D fact for each specific area of the region. Areas with favorable resource potential have been identified (D fact > 0.889), which occupy 20 % of the territory’s area, districts with D fact within 0.78 – 0.889 have a satisfactory potential, their area is 51 %, the area with limited potential (D fact <0.78) is 29% of the territory. The map with different resource potential zones, taking into account the contours of administrative districts, will allow specialists to navigate when making certain technological decisions when cultivating row crops.
