Abstract: Private farm holdings in Russia make a great contribution to livestock production. In recent decades there is a decrease in production of some kinds of livestock products produced by them. This trend leads to the fact that in the future production of milk and cattle and poultry meat will disappear in the households of the Central, Northern, North-Western economic regions, cattle meat and eggs — in the holdings of the North, North-West economic regions, wool — in farms of the Central, Central Black Earth, Volga-Vyatka, Northern, North-Western, Volga, West Siberian regions. Livestock private farm holdings are operating most successfully in the Urals, Volga, North Caucasian economic regions and in the future in these regions they will increase livestock production. The total production of milk, cattle meat and honey in private farm holdings will increase and the production of pork, chicken, eggs, and wool will reduce. The obtained results allow coming to the conclusion that in order to improve the efficiency of the livestock industry in the Russian private farm holdings it is necessary to provide these holdings and agricultural enterprises in the Urals, Volga, North Caucasian economic regions with dynamic development and further development of the sectors of livestock and beekeeping in private farm holdings of our country.
Keywords: Russia’s large economic regions, private farm holdings, milk, cattle and poultry meat, eggs, wool, honey.
