This article analyzes the theoretical foundations of the concept of resource use efficiency, its role in industrial
economics, and the specific features of its application in the grain products industry. The study examines scientific
approaches ranging from the representatives of the classical economic school to modern theories of efficiency. In addition,
various methods for assessing resource efficiency are analyzed. The results show that the rational use of resources is an
important factor in increasing enterprise competitiveness, reducing production costs, and ensuring sustainable industrial
development.
