This paper examines the extent of interregional integration of Russian food markets
from different perspectives. Though food price levels in Russia are converging after
the period of hyperinflation, remote regions like the Far East seem to be on a different
price path. With regard to the interregional commodity flows, it could be shown that
interregional transportation of grain is unlikely to have decreased significantly,
if the figures are corrected for imports and feed use. But a cross-sectional regression
analysis using differences between regional production and consumption revealed that
regional surpluses as well as deficits for all products tend to diminish, which means
that the Russian regions increasingly rely on their regional production and not on
interregional trade.
