The methodological base of the study is formed on the basis of the convergence of systemic, synergetic and evolutionary approaches, as well as the basic principles of theories of regional economics and regional governance, the economic landscape, spatial distribution and use of resources and productive forces. The article analyzes the state and trends of the modernization development of agro-industrial complexes in the regions of southern Russia from the perspective of solving the problem of balanced socio-economic development of their territories in modern imperatives of informatization and digitalization. The authors demonstrate the possibilities of intellectualizing the potential management processes of regional and interregional agricultural holding structures. It is shown that the use of adaptive, taking into account the agricultural specialization of the regions, tools for supporting management decision-making in the field of regional agribusiness will contribute to its involvement in the regionwide dynamics ofmodernization.
