Sheep population in Russia by region and category of agricultural producer
The 94 rows in this table show the sheep population by constituent entity of the Russian Federation as of the end of 2021 and 2022. Rosstat data allows for tracking animal numbers both nationwide and for each federal district or individual region, such as Belgorod Oblast. Each row corresponds to a specific region, enabling a comparison of livestock farming scale across different parts of the country over a two-year period without complex calculations or external reports

All table numbers are series: 367
How to read this table
Rows are categorized by federal district or specific constituent entity, including a summary row for the Russian Federation. Values can be compared within a single year or dynamically between 2021 and 2022. The 'Russian Federation' row shows the total sheep population, which was 19148.212 in 2021 and 8007.379 in 2022. These figures make it easy to assess changes in livestock population at the regional level during the reporting period
What is visible in these numbers
Five highest values: RUSSIAN FEDERATION — value (19 148), RUSSIAN FEDERATION — Household plots (8 179), RUSSIAN FEDERATION — Peasant (farm) households (8 007), RUSSIAN FEDERATION — Agricultural organisations (3 041), CENTRAL FEDERAL DISTRICT — value (759.3). Gap between highest and lowest — by 27 872 times. The top five account for 96.9% of the total across all entries — distribution is heavily skewed toward the top
Observations are annual, with 2 observation periods in the dataset. There are 50 values in the table out of 50 possible, i.e. 100%, meaning the table is almost completely filled
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
