Average live weight per head of livestock at year-end, 2021–2022
The average live weight per head of livestock at year-end allows for an assessment of the physical condition of the herd in each region of the country. The table distinguishes between three types of animals: cattle, cows (excluding cows on fattening and grazing), and pigs. All data are collected for two periods, 2021 and 2022, to allow users to visually compare indicators between these years within the same region to identify changes

How to read this table
Livestock weights are presented in the same units for 85 regions of the country, enabling comparison between regions and identifying both leaders and laggards in animal weight. The breakdown into three livestock types helps to understand where fattening is more intensive and where livestock weight is below the national average

Period and application
This information will help agribusiness specialists assess fattening efficiency, officials in planning state industry support, and farmers and scientists in analyzing the state of regional agriculture. Rosstat has prepared indicators for 2021–2022, providing up-to-date statistics for the in-depth study of livestock farming in all constituent entities of the Russian Federation
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
