Sverdlovsk Region is currently one of Russia’s fastest-growing regions in terms of agricultural produce. The agricultural output growth index comes to 109.9, thus making the region Russia’s 6th fastest-developing constituency in this respect, the Ministry for Economic Development’s online report on the economic, financial, banking, and social situation in the Russian federal constituencies in January-May 2011 says.

Among the country’s top five most agriculturally successful regions are Chukotka Autonomous District, Novgorod Region, Novosibirsk Region, Tver Region, and Voronezh Region.

As it happens, Sverdlovsk Region was not on this list in the previous report.

At the same time, the total agricultural output in Russia has remained virtually the same over the given period.
