How to read this table
Rows are categorized by country, allowing for a comparison of poultry farming scales in Russia and abroad. Comparing the figures for Russia, Belarus, and Hungary highlights differences in population volumes. All values are expressed in millions of heads, facilitating the analysis of the world's largest poultry producers
What is visible in these numbers
The five highest values: Indonesia (3,865), Islamic Republic of Iran (1,036), India (878.5), Russia (551), Vietnam (544.9). The gap between the highest and lowest is 1,933 times. The top five account for 79.7% of the total across all positions — the distribution is heavily skewed toward the top
Observations are annual, with 7 observation periods in the dataset. There are 175 values in the table out of 175 possible, which is 100%, meaning the table is almost entirely filled
The same indicator for other periods
These series cannot be stitched together Over the common period 2010 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 period from 2010 to 2023 is covered by annual statistics, updated as data arrives from international sources. These indicators, in millions of heads of all poultry species, are useful for agribusiness specialists monitoring global populations and economists studying the global food market. Rosstat collects these figures to analyze the country's position in global agriculture and compare it with other nations
How it is calculated
Noted in the source itself: 2024 — 554 million heads. According to FAO data
1) 2024 г. – 554 млн голов.
2) По данным ФAO.
