The aim of the study is to represent the author’s methodology for assessing the excellence of agriculture, which would be implanted into a single efficiency formula, which involves conceptualization of the assessment of fertility reproduction processes. The authors started from the hypothesis that post-industrial agriculture will be more and more regulated according to the criteria of ecological, not market perfection. The industry will not focus on market efficiency, but the market will adapt to environmental requirements. At the same time, ecological perfection will be determined by the dynamics of soil fertility. The methodology (logic of cognition) was built on the specified hypothesis, according to which the efficiency of modern agriculture should be evaluated by the carbon balance in the production process. Methodologically, this means evaluating the dynamics and overall balance of organic matter (humus) in agriculture.
