The article considers the semantic and methodological platform for analyzing the concept of balance. The structure of the subject-object configuration of integration interaction in the context of assessing balance is studied. Directions for ensuring the balance of functioning of regional agroindustrial holdings are proposed, including the coordination of interests of participants, the development of an investment strategy for the association, the creation of production units at the level of the management company, and the improvement of trade and sales activities.

From the position of the development of theoretical foundations of management, special attention is paid to the content of the model elements (principles, factors, methods, etc.).

In modern conditions, human capital is a priority factor in the development of rural areas of Belarus. The socio-economic character of its formation makes it necessary to study the specifics of human capital development in the territorial area. The conducted research, which is also based on a detailed study of sociological surveys, allows us to point out infrastructural factors that predetermine the concentration of human capital in rural areas. This fact actualizes the task of improving the methods of managing its development through the development of conceptual approaches to the formation of the concept of rural human capital development.
