Objective of the study was to determine the place and role of physical culture and sports in the system of agricultural education in the USSR and the Russian Federation, carrying out a comparative analysis.
Methods and structure of the study. The following methods were used: participant and non-participant observation of physical education teachers, interviews with physical education teachers and sports coaches, and a sociological survey of first-year students. The example of the country's leading agricultural university, the Timiryazev Academy, demonstrates the evolution of approaches to teaching physical education in the USSR and the Russian Federation.
Results and conclusions. The article presents data on the teaching of physical education at the Timiryazev Academy in different periods of its history. The article presents the results of a sociological survey among students of the Timiryazev Academy, according to which the overwhelming majority of students have a positive attitude towards the GTO standards, which were the normative basis of the Soviet system of physical education. The university has adopted the Program for the Development of Physical Education and Sports for 2021-2030, one of the areas of which is the popularization of the All-Russian Physical Culture and Sports Complex "Ready for Labor and Defense". The main scientific result: the timeliness of turning to the positive developments of the Soviet era is substantiated, but taking into account modern realities. This is the approach that is being implemented at the Timiryazev Academy.

Keywords: physical education, agricultural education, USSR, modern education system.
