Melon crops refer to areas allocated for the cultivation of watermelons, muskmelons, and other similar plants. The table provides nationwide data for 2022 and 2023, including figures for the Russian Federation, federal districts, and individual regions. Comparing the columns for the two years shows how the scale of cultivation for these crops has changed across different territories
Chart of sown areas of melon crops by Russian regions for 2022 and 2023
Rosstat data for 2022–2023. Rows: 225, periods: 2. Breakdown: Russian Federation — All categories of farms; Central Federal District — All categories of farms; Belgorod Region — All categories of farms; Bryansk Region — All categories of farms; Voronezh Region — All categories of farms and others
Russian Federation — All categories of farms: the indicator fell from 94.2 to 93.1 in 2022–2023 — by 1.2%. Of the 24 largest rows, 10 increased, 14 decreased
The rows in the list are categorized by administrative level, ranging from the national total to specific federal districts and regions. This approach allows for comparing the contribution of individual constituent entities to the total sown area and assessing production concentration in specific regions. Data are presented without units of measurement, requiring reference to the original bulletins to clarify the scale
What is visible in these numbers
Five largest values: Russian Federation — All categories of farms (94.2), Southern Federal District — All categories of farms (42.4), Volgograd Region — All categories of farms (22.6), North Caucasian Federal District — All categories of farms (10.3), Astrakhan Region — All categories of farms (8.44). The gap between the largest and smallest is 219,099 times. The top five account for 87.3% of the total for all items — the 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, which is 100%; data gaps are virtually absent
Data from electronic versions of agricultural status bulletins are updated annually. The information covers all categories of farms and is useful for agronomists, vegetable market specialists, and economists studying the structure of the agro-industrial complex
How it is calculated
Data on sown areas, yield and livestock numbers are used in planning raw material procurement, crop assessment and forecasting food prices
