How to read this table

The twelve rows of the table divide total expenditures into categories, allowing for a comparison of the contribution of the state budget and non-budgetary sources to the development of scientific activity. The growth dynamics of government investment can be compared with the activity of the organizations themselves in seeking their own funds. The table structure illustrates the relationship between various channels of funding inflow into the research sector, providing an opportunity to analyze the financial stability of the scientific sphere by year
