Abstract 

The study focuses on assessing the resilience of the agricultural sector in the context of Russian aggression, using the example of the Kyiv Prydniprovia region. The ability of the agricultural sector to adapt to wartime conditions was investigated. A methodology is proposed for studying individual sectors of agricultural production, combining indices of production localization and sector resilience between specific periods. Studies and calculations were carried out for 14 sectors for the period 2021-2023. A series of maps and a web application were created on the ArcGIS Online platform to visualize spatial changes. The results showed significant differentiation in resilience, both by individual sectors and by territorial changes. The methodological approaches used with the application of cartographic representation showed the possibility of its use in other regions of Ukraine.
