Агропромышленный комплекс (АПК) представляет собой крупнейший межотраслевой комплекс, который объединяет несколько отраслей экономики, специализирующихся на сельскохозяйственном производстве и его обслуживании, переработке сельскохозяйственного сырья и получении конечной продукции, доводимой до потребителя. АПК играет важную роль в обеспечении устойчивого социально-экономического развития общества и государства. Его главное назначение заключается в удовлетворении потребностей населения страны в основных продуктах питания, создании сырьевой базы для смежных отраслей экономики, обеспечении экономического равновесия в природно-хозяйственной среде. Благодаря своей многофункциональности сельские территории выполняют не только производственную функцию, сохраняя продовольственную независимость государства, но и социальную, обеспечивая занятость населения на обширных территориях страны.
