Some 91.9 million hectares (227 million acres) are pastureland, representing 5.6% of the total area. In 2005, the livestock population included: cattle, 22,987,700; sheep, 15,499,700; and pigs, 13,412,800. Russia also had 1.5 million horses, 328.9 million chickens, 2.7 million geese, and 2.5 million turkeys in 2005.

The 2005 meat production amounts included (in thousands of tons): beef, 1,915; pork, 1,610; mutton, 123; and poultry, 1,130. In 1999, Russia's livestock production was only 50% of what it had been in 1990. During 2002-04, livestock production was 7.8% higher than during 1999-2001. Milk production in 2005 was estimated at 30.9 million tons (down from 55.7 million tons in 1991), and egg production amounted to 2 billion tons in 2005. Infrastructural and distributional problems have exacerbated declining production. Many Russian dairy farms have been unprofitable due to low-quality dairy cows, limited supplies of quality feed, and lack of support services. Continued decline in livestock production, especially poultry, as well as the rapid growth of imports have been a source of trade friction. In 2004, Russia imported over $2 billion in meat and meat products.
