Abstract

The main objective of this study is to rank the territories of Kyrgyzstan by calculating integral indicators consisting of certain parameters of the agricultural sector that affect their sustainable development. The paper presents an approach to selecting territorial indicators considering the reflection of social, economic, and environmental aspects of development, namely: employment in the agricultural sector and poverty level; gross agricultural output per capita and its growth rate; reforestation and pesticides used in agriculture. In accordance with the methodology for calculating integral indicators, composite indices were determined reflecting the influence of the agricultural sector on the regions of the country for the following years with a five-year step: 2013, 2018, and 2023. The average composite indices of the influence of the agricultural sector on all regions by year were 2.81 (2013), 3.30 (2018), and 2.99 (2023). According to the results of ranking individual territories, the Chui and Issyk-Kul regions have consistently high results of the influence of the agricultural sector on their development. Batken region had the lowest rating for all observed periods, and Talas did the same during 2018–2023. In general, this methodological approach allows for similar calculations of the influence of any industry/sector on the development of the territory of a country or group of countries.
