| Summary: | The use of biodiesel in agricultural production is a prerequisite for reducing the cost price of manufactured goods. The purpose of the study is to identify how much equipment does the subject of the Russian Federation need for biodiesel production taking into consideration the structure of crop acreage, existing equipment, and available technologies. In the Samara region, a technology for production of biodiesel from vegetable oils was developed. Based on the needs in diesel fuel, a number of facilities needed for biodiesel production were determined. The amount of diesel fuel used for cultivation of the Samara region crop acreage was 77.1 thousand tons. To meet the needs of the region and reduce transportation costs, 5 biodiesel units should be located in every natural economic zone of the Samara region.
