Sheep and goat population by category of agricultural producer
The Russian Federation had 284493.716 thousand head in 2020, and in 2021 the figure was 107306.605 thousand head. The data covers two years and is distributed across 94 rows, including totals for the country, federal districts, and individual subjects, such as Belgorod Oblast. Differences between rows allow for a detailed view of animal numbers in various administrative units, enabling comparisons of livestock populations at different levels of government and tracking changes over the specified period
Chart of sheep and goat population in Russia in 2020 and 2021 by farm category
Set in numbers
Rosstat data for 2020–2021. Rows: 366, periods: 2. Shown by positions: RUSSIAN FEDERATION — value; RUSSIAN FEDERATION — Agricultural organisations; RUSSIAN FEDERATION — Household plots; RUSSIAN FEDERATION — Peasant (farm) households …; CENTRAL FEDERAL DISTRICT — value and others
RUSSIAN FEDERATION — value: indicator increased from 284,494 to 288,232 in 2020–2021 — by 1.31%. Of the 25 largest rows, 13 increased, 12 decreased
All table numbers are series: 366
How to read this table
The breakdown by farm category in each row makes it possible to see what share of the population is kept in agricultural organizations and what share in household plots. Comparing this data between the two years shows how the distribution of animals changed within regions and across the country as a whole. Each row represents a data snapshot, allowing for an assessment of the scale of livestock farming in a specific territory, which is particularly useful for analyzing the structure of agriculture in different parts of Russia
What is visible in these numbers
Five largest values: RUSSIAN FEDERATION — value (288,232), RUSSIAN FEDERATION — Household plots (138,921), RUSSIAN FEDERATION — Peasant (farm) households (107,307), RUSSIAN FEDERATION — Agricultural organisations (46,627), CENTRAL FEDERAL DISTRICT — value (15,840). Gap between largest and smallest — by 12,010 times. The top five account for 95.2% of the total across all positions — distribution is heavily skewed toward the top
Observations are annual; total periods: 2. 50 of 50 possible values filled (100%), i.e. the table is almost entirely complete

Period and application
The coverage period is 2020 and 2021, with data available for all regions of the country. This information is useful for farmers, economists, and researchers studying the state of livestock farming in Russia. Rosstat prepared this information as part of its agricultural bulletins, ensuring high accuracy and comparability of indicators across all subjects of the Federation
How it is calculated
This year’s harvest and livestock numbers determine next year’s procurement prices: processors need such rows earlier than supplier price lists
