Application of organic fertilizers for crops in agricultural organizations
Volumes of organic fertilizer application to crops in Russian agricultural organizations are recorded in annual series from 1990 to 2025. Table rows are categorized by crop type: data is provided for sugar beets, sunflowers, and vegetable and melon crops. This allows for tracking changes in fertilization for specific plant types over thirty-five years
- vegetable and melon crops
- Share of area fertilized with organic fertilizers in total sown area, percent
- sugar beet
- fodder crops
- total sown area
- cereals and leguminous crops (excluding maize)

How to read this table
Row differences allow for comparing fertilizer application intensity across various crops. It is possible to see which crops require more or less organic matter based on the specific cultivation requirements of sugar beets or sunflowers. The data covers the entire territory of the Russian Federation and provides an overview of organic fertilizer use in the country's agricultural organizations
What is visible in these numbers
Highest values: total, million t (389.5), Organic fertilizers applied: (75), potatoes (36). Ratio between highest and lowest — 389.5 times. The top three account for 92% of the total across all items — distribution is heavily skewed toward the top
Observations are annual; total periods 34. 310 of 442 possible values filled (70.1%). Gaps are extensive: many items were observed only in certain periods, so comparisons between such series should be made with caution

Period and application
Annual dynamics cover the period from 1990 to 2025. The data is published by Rosstat and is suitable for analyzing the agrochemical load on soil during the cultivation of key crops. Data for each item is presented in a separate row to facilitate comparison of application volumes across different years
How it is calculated
