One of the most problematic places in the agro-industrial complex (AIC) is the systematic implementation of resource conservation, in particular in agricultural engineering. To overcome this problem, the author proposed a scheme for selecting a resource-saving project in order to assess the effectiveness of technologies for conserving resources. The author aimed to analyze the effectiveness of the implementation of resource-saving measures in the complex of the first sphere of agriculture. To detail the goal, the task was to test the scheme of choosing a resource-saving project and determine the effectiveness of resource-saving measures. As a result, the model of multicriteria justification for increasing the resource saving of agro-industrial enterprises was evaluated as one that is adequate for assessing the efficiency of production and the level of resource saving. The economic efficiency of resource-saving technology of sowing of row crops by the sowing device with the batcher of the directed action is calculated. The average annual increase in profit from the introduction of an advanced sowing machine for the main technical row crops (corn, sunflower, soybeans, beets) is 1216,45 c.u. on sowing of one hectare. On the example of sowing one of the crops, the greatest economic effect is given by corn – 1,6 million c.u. per year, the smallest - sunflower (266 thousand c.u.). At the same time, the experimental sample showed itself best in sowing soybeans, reducing losses in terms of value by 98%.
