The objective of the study was to perceive mutual characteristics of the communes in central Serbia (Yugoslavia) based on 39 statistical indicators showing the achieved developmental level of agricultural production. On the basis of these indicators, the communes were classified into clusters (groups) forming homogeneous units with the objective of eliminating the weaknesses in the policy of regional development and enabling rational utilization of available resources. Six homogeneous groups of communes were obtained using cluster analysis of previously chosen indicators. Each cluster has its own specific properties depending on the level of manifestation of the indicator tested, which is the result of different territorial and climatic conditions.
