The results of the harvesting campaign summed up in the Sverdlovsk region

Agrarians of the Sverdlovsk region completed the harvesting campaign of 2026 and created a reserve of fodder for the winter period. Despite difficult weather conditions, the farms of the region fulfilled the planned indicators for harvesting the main crops.

According to operational data, the region collected: 430.3 thousand tons of grain; 176 thousand tons of potatoes; 26.3 thousand tons of vegetables; 65.4 thousand tons of oil seeds.

34.2 centners of feed units per nominal head of livestock were harvested – this is higher than the required standard (30 centners) and exceeds the figure of the previous year.

For harvesting, a significant fleet of equipment was used: 4.7 thousand tractors, 800 grain harvesters, 373 forage harvesters and 116 potato harvesters, as well as grain drying equipment and storage facilities.

An important area of work is the growth of the share of domestic seeds. According to preliminary estimates, in 2026 Russian varieties were used in the following volumes: 96.5% - for grain and leguminous crops, 100% - for corn, 85.7% - for oilseeds.

Due to unfavorable weather conditions, a regional emergency regime was introduced in 37 municipalities by the decision of Governor Denis Pasler. This measure helped farmers to keep grants and subsidies from the budget, as well as receive insurance payments for lost crops.

Now the cleaning is fully completed, and agricultural producers have moved to preparations for the next season: ploughing of chicks is made on an area of 243 thousand hectares.

Earlier, MK-Ural wrote that the Sverdlovsk region suspended the implementation of large agricultural projects due to a lack of investment. This was told by the Minister of agro-industrial complex and consumer market of the Sverdlovsk region Anna Kuznetsova. According to the minister, there is no question of the complete cancellation of the projects - they have been postponed until better times.
