Hitherto, the studies about Russian agriculture and peasantry have realized great results. But many studies focused Central Agricultural, Middle Volga regions and former serfs (excluding former State peasants). As a result, the backwardness of Russian agriculture and the poverty of Russian peasantry have exaggerated. The statistical analyses of Russian grain production and landownership from the second half of the 19th century to the beginning of the 20th century show us that the production of wheat and barley increased more than that of rye and oats and main grain producing regions shifted from Central Agricultural and Middle Volga to New Russia, Lower Volga and North Caucasia. Consequently, Russian grain production increased greatly. And in New Russia and Lower Volga peasants bought vast arable land from nobles. Thus Russian agriculture developed considerably. But, on the eve of World War I, the grain production in New Russia and Lower Volga was reaching the limit. Russia had to export cereals in large quantities to promote industrialization. On the other side industrialization increased domestic consumption of cereals.
