The article deals with the primary directions of resource saving of grain production in Western Siberia which make it competitive on grain market studied by the departments of agriculture and economics of Siberian research Institute of Agriculture.  The study showed that the increase of crop productivity is closely connected with the increase of energy costs if consider the increased volume of material consumption during the last years. That’s why resource saving should become a primary task of production for the farms of all types in the region as there’s no alternative to this process for the development of agriculture. The factors of resource saving can be combined into two groups: technical-technological and organizational-economic. An economically approved acquisition of agricultural machinery and formation of resource saving technologies in the system of zonal agriculture belong to the first group. The most important thing is a choice of combined and more productive agricultural machinery and equipment for every technological operation. It’s necessary to think about the distribution and position of tractors for agricultural work. Saving of chemicals, seeds and development of methods for increase of grain quality and for improvement of infrastructure are important reserves of the resource saving. The article shows economic efficiency of four types of technologies, worked out by SibRIA for forestry steppe in Omsk region. The second group includes level of wages in the branch, which is a serious stimulus to save resources under definite conditions of production; complex planning of solving of the task; development of norms and regulations as a basis for planning of economy and substantiation of demands in resources; management of expenses based on a budgeting with conventional methods of cost accounting.
