A methodological approach to assessing the level of compliance with economic security by agricultural enterprises is developed and tested, which is based on the use of an integral indicator that combines the definition of indicators of the level of insurance security and insurance self-sufficiency, which allows assessing the ability of the enterprise to cover possible losses from key risks at the expense of its own resources and insurance payments.

The directions of development of the system of management of economic security of agricultural enterprises have been substantiated. Procedures for forecasting key economic indicators of agricultural enterprises have been developed, taking into account the need to ensure an appropriate level of their economic security.
