Sheep population at the end of the year in Russia
There were 19785.39 thousand sheep in Russia at the end of 2020, and by the end of 2021 this number was 7983.353 thousand. The statistics cover all subjects of the country as well as federal districts, allowing for a comparison of sheep farming concentration across different parts of the state. The table provides data for the end of two years, where each row represents a specific region or district, allowing for an assessment of the geographical distribution of the population during the specified period
Sheep population in Russian regions at year-end 2020 and 2021 according to Rosstat data
Set in numbers
Rosstat data for 2020–2021. Rows: 367, periods: 2. Breakdown by items: RUSSIAN FEDERATION — value; RUSSIAN FEDERATION — Agricultural organizations; RUSSIAN FEDERATION — Household farms; RUSSIAN FEDERATION — Peasant (farmer) households …; CENTRAL FEDERAL DISTRICT — value and others
RUSSIAN FEDERATION — value: the indicator fell from 19 785 to 19 148 for 2020–2021 — by 3.22%. Of the 25 largest rows, 4 increased, 21 decreased
All table numbers are series: 367
How to read this table
Regions and federal districts serve as rows in this table, making it possible to compare animal numbers in different parts of the country. By comparing figures for 2020 and 2021, one can see how the number of sheep changed in each specific subject of the Russian Federation. Data are grouped so that the user can quickly find both national totals and detailed information for a specific region or territory, based on official Rosstat data
What is visible in these numbers
Five largest values: RUSSIAN FEDERATION — value (19 785), RUSSIAN FEDERATION — Household farms (8 577), RUSSIAN FEDERATION — Peasant (farmer) households (8 101), RUSSIAN FEDERATION — Agricultural organizations (3 107), CENTRAL FEDERAL DISTRICT — value (774.4). The gap between the largest and smallest is 25 596 times. The top five account for 96.8% of the total across all items — the distribution is heavily skewed toward the top
Observations are annual; total periods: 2. 50 of 50 possible values filled (100%) — almost no empty cells remain
The same indicator for other periods
These series cannot be stitched together Over the common period 2021 values diverge — Rosstat recalculated the indicator using a revised methodology. They cannot be combined into a single chart: a break would appear at the junction, which did not actually occur

Period and application
The information is relevant for monitoring the state of livestock farming by region for 2020 and 2021. Data are updated by Rosstat as sectoral bulletins are published and will be useful to agricultural specialists, analysts, and researchers in the agrarian sector studying livestock population dynamics in different parts of Russia
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
