Methods: generalization, system analysis, statistical analysis, economic and statistical modeling, graphical, abstract-logical, questionnaire survey.

Based on the study of industrial experience, the place of women in the financial and economic processes of agricultural production is determined, their special role in the economic development of its small forms, as well as in the reproduction of their human capital, is noted. Thanks to the conducted questionnaire survey, the degree of participation of women in new Russian territories in the reproduction of certain elements of human capital of small forms of agricultural production – capital of health and longevity, intellectual and social capital was revealed. The measures for further formation of the human capital of small forms of agricultural production, taking into account the gender factor, are proposed. Based on the conducted research, conclusions are made about the key role of women in the formation of human capital of small forms of agricultural production, which can be used to predict socio-economic processes in rural areas.
