The article presents the indicators of the development of the agro-industrial complex of the Volgograd region, the achievements in the provision of agricultural products to the population, both in our region and the entire Russian Federation, are noted. One of the water bodies is considered, located on the territory of the Volgo-Akhtuba floodplain natural park, in the zone of agricultural landscapes, the resources of which are used by farmers for irrigating cultivated crops. The data of hydrological surveys of JSC “Volgovodproekt” carried out on the territory of the natural park have been studied. The main negative factors of agro-industrial production with an increase in irrigated areas and their impact on water bodies are analyzed. The hydrochemical indicators of the water quality of the Akhtuba River were investigated and the integral indicators of water quality were calculated. It was revealed that the use of the combinatorial index of water pollution is a priority for assessing water quality.
