ABSTRACT
This article describes the agricultural enterprises located in different natural climatic
zones, which were analyzed on the basis of the energy approach on the example of
Western Siberia and North Kazakhstan. The comparative analysis of enterprises functioning by the criterion of energy efficiency was conducted. The values of farming resource potential were identified. It shows that the density of energy consumption is very heterogeneous at different territories.

Keywords: energy efficiency, energy approach, resource potential
