Ryazan Oblast
The Ryazan region is part of the Central Economic Region. Agro-industrial complex
Ryazan region with a territory of 39,600 square meters. km is located in the southeastern part of the Non-Chernozem zone of the Russian Federation. The climate of the region is temperate continental; the region is characterized by fairly warm summers and moderately cold winters. Agroclimatic conditions are heterogeneous, they change from northern to southern territories, they are influenced by relief, landscape, soil type and other natural and local features.
The Ryazan region is a region with developed agriculture, located 180 km from Moscow, which is the largest market for agricultural products. The region's agro-industrial complex currently employs about 31 thousand people. The region's agro-industrial complex includes 328 agricultural enterprises, 2,536 peasant farms, and over 200 enterprises operating in the food and processing industries.
The main branches of agriculture in the Ryazan region are dairy farming, poultry farming, pig farming, grain production, and feed production. The land fund of agricultural enterprises and citizens engaged in agricultural production is 2,556.2 thousand hectares, of which 2,328.5 thousand hectares are farmland, 1,470.6 thousand hectares are arable land, 813.5 thousand hectares are forage lands.
The production volumes of eggs, milk, grain crops for food purposes, as well as potatoes and vegetables fully satisfy the region's needs for these products, a significant part of which is supplied to the city of Moscow and other regions of Russia. The main producers of milk, grain, meat and eggs are agricultural enterprises; potatoes and vegetables are mainly grown on private plots of citizens. In the Ryazan region there are about 289.4 thousand private farms.
In 2012, gross agricultural production reached 34.1 billion rubles, which is 105.5% of the physical volume of agricultural products produced in 2011. The share of livestock products produced in the total volume of production in 2012 was 47.1%, crop products – 52.9%. In 2012, the total profit of agricultural producers exceeded 2.2 billion rubles. Profitability in this area was 14.4%.
The population of the Ryazan region is decreasing, and some areas are already inferior in population to large villages.
Back on January 25, Ryazanstat announced its estimate of the population of the Ryazan region by the beginning of 2021: 1 million 114 thousand 312 people. This figure was obtained based on previous estimates and the results of the 2010 census, to which all births were added and from which all deaths were subtracted, and also took into account population movements.
In 2021, 16 thousand 389 people officially moved to the Ryazan region (excluding illegal immigrants) from other regions of Russia, and 17 thousand 887 people officially left for other parts of the country. International migration amounted to 4,324 arrivals and 3,375 departures, and almost 98% was the movement of citizens of other CIS countries.
Depopulation
The term "Depopulation" means a decrease in population. There is a stereotype in the public consciousness: until the 1990s, the population grew, and then began to decrease. This is true, but for Russia as a whole. But in the Ryazan region the population is declining all the time; now it is at the level of 1954. Here are the data from all censuses over the last 60 years:
- 1959 - 1 million 444 thousand 755 people;
- 1969 - 1 million 411 thousand 590 people;
- 1979 - 1 million 361 thousand 839 people;
- 1989 - 1 million 345 thousand 924 people;
- 2002 - 1 million 227 thousand 910 people;
- 2010 - 1 million 154 thousand 114 people.
The region's population declined even when the birth rate was higher than the death rate. Why? Because the Ryazan population migrated. The children grew up, went to study outside the region and stayed there. Various good specialists left for a better life in Moscow, other big cities, as well as all sorts of large ones, where salaries were higher. The countryside was especially deserted: in 1959, 70% of Ryazan residents lived there, in 1979 - already 42%, and in 2010 - 29%.
Loneliness of a large circle on the map
It is interesting that among our neighbors this process was more “softer”. Here are the statistics on this matter.
There are five cities with a population of over 50 thousand people in the Tula region (Tula, Novomoskovsk, Donskoy, Aleksin, Efremov), in the Vladimir region - five (Vladimir, Kovrov, Murom, Alexandrov, Gus-Khrustalny), in the Nizhny Novgorod region - seven (Nizhny Novgorod , Arzamas, Dzerzhinsk, Kstovo, Sarov, Vyksa, Pavlovo), in the Penza region - three (Penza, Kuznetsk, Zarechny). There are two such cities even in Mordovia (Saransk, Ruzaevka), Tambov (Tambov, Michurinsk) and Lipetsk regions (Lipetsk, Yelets).
And only Ryazan is alone in its region: only 30.7 thousand people live in the second largest city in the region, Kasimov.
Moscow and Ryazan “people suckers”
In the 20th century, Ryazan worked like a large mechanism for sucking residents out of the countryside - a “people sucker”. It was in Ryazan that, from the late 1950s, large industrial enterprises and tens, and then hundreds of thousands of square meters of housing began to be built annually.
From 1959 to 1979, the city more than doubled (from approximately 215 to 453 thousand people). And even in the 1990s, when the crisis began and the factories stopped, people still flocked to the regional center.
In 1991, 527 thousand people lived in it, and in 1999 - 531 thousand. After that, from 2002 to 2009, the population decreased little by little (to 510 thousand in 2009), but then the graphs shot up again: by 2021, there were 538 thousand 962 residents of Ryazan.
But in the outback everything is still bad. Agriculture is developing, and where 200 collective farmers previously worked, now 40 employees of a branch of an agricultural holding can cope - and they produce not less, but more. Where do the rest go? Old people die, young people leave.
For example, by the beginning of 2021, only 5,158 people lived in the Pitelinsky district. The whole region had less population than the village of Polyany alone (6623 people) near Ryazan! District centers, one after another, become “two-thousanders”: in Zakharov during the 2010 census there were 2,739 residents, in Chuchkovo (already in 2017) - 2,619, in Pitelin - 2,043.
Through the spacious fields and forests of the eastern part of the Ryazan region, you can drive an SUV for many kilometers and not see a single soul. On topographic maps, next to the names of villages, the following is increasingly written in parentheses: “non-residential.”
The turning point will come if...
But the situation can be fixed. The economic factors that have depopulated the Ryazan region have been in effect for the last decade. We are seeing more and more people, no matter where they live, working remotely using the Internet. And it’s not just programmers: even good fashion designers have started selling their exclusive clothes through online stores. If by 2030 Russia does become a digital country, many salaries in the city and countryside will be equal - because the employer most often will not even know where his “remote employee” lives.
But one more factor will remain: convenience of life. As long as there are no good roads, good communications, gas supply, schools and kindergartens, hospitals, service services, or various retail outlets in rural areas, there will be no revival of the village. Today’s axiom “First, residents of a populated area need to earn money in order to then live well” will be replaced by a new truth - “If the residents of a populated area do not live well, soon there will be no one there to earn money.”
There is a “Sustainable Development of Rural Territories” program that is updated every few years, both federal and regional. They provide for large investments in rural infrastructure: roads, first aid stations, sports facilities. Of course, when looking at most villages away from federal highways, it becomes clear that there is no end to the work.
In April 2021, a meeting was held in Ryazan on the implementation of the national project “Demography” in the region, at which Governor Nikolai Lyubimov said that funding for this project until 2024 would amount to 9.9 billion rubles.
We will be able to see where all this will lead in 2021-2024. By this time, according to the authorities' calculations, earnings in young families should increase and the birth rate should rise.
