A map of agricultural zoning on the territory of Armenia is elaborated in 1956 and is in need of serious processing. A map of agricultural zoning of complex mountain territory of the republic is elaborated on the basis of analysis of indices of heat-and-moisture supply and conditions of wintering of agricultural crops as well as a number of other elements of climate and landscapes. Two agroclimatic districts, 8 regions and 16 subregions are revealed. The agroclimatic characteristics of each region is represented as 14 elements of climate by altitudinal belts in 200 and 500 m. The upper borders of cropping and possibility of achieving aftercrop a year are defined. The map of agroclimatic zoning is a basis for drawing up a new project of agricultural zoning of Armenia as well as for the solution of tasks connected with specialization of agriculture by regions, agricultural belts and large-scale farms.
