Each row contains current figures grouped for convenient analysis of livestock dynamics in organizations that do not meet small business criteria

Period and application
Information is updated annually after the reporting period based on reports from agricultural organizations. The information is useful for agro-industrial complex specialists, analysts, and researchers studying breeding livestock in various regions of Russia. Data for 2024 and 2025 are official Rosstat statistics and represent a snapshot of the population as of the end of each specified year
How it is calculated
This year’s harvest and livestock determine next year’s procurement prices: processors need such rows earlier than the supplier’s price list
