Annual grasses, such as vetch, clover, lupin, and others, are sown for soil improvement, livestock feed, or green manure. The table shows the area occupied by these crops in all categories of farms across Russia and federal districts. The hectares represent the total sown area of annual grasses at year-end, excluding inter-seasonal changes
Dynamics of annual grass sown areas in all categories of farms in Russia for 2024–2025
Rosstat data for 2024–2025. Rows: 416, periods: 2. Breakdown by items: 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; Vladimir Region — All categories of farms and others
Russian Federation — All categories of farms: the indicator fell from 2,799 to 2,413 for 2024–2025 — by 13.8%. Of the 25 largest rows, 4 increased, 21 decreased
Table columns show area in hectares for two consecutive years. When comparing data, note changes within a single federal district or region: a decrease in area may indicate a shift to other crops or a reduction in livestock numbers, while an increase indicates an expansion of forage grass cultivation
What is visible in these numbers
Five largest values: Russian Federation — All categories of farms (2,799), Central Federal District — All categories of farms (370.6), North-Western Federal District — All categories of farms (67.2), Voronezh Region — All categories of farms (55.3), Bryansk Region — All categories of farms (33.4). The gap between the largest and smallest is 6,910 times. The top five account for 91.6% of the total across 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%, meaning the table is almost completely filled
The dataset includes data for 2024 and 2025. Indicators are updated annually and published in the 'Agricultural Status Bulletins' section. This information is intended for farmers, agricultural market analysts, and government agencies for assessing fodder resources and planning sowing campaigns
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
