Statistics On Agricultural Reforms

• Russia was the world's leading cereal exporter
• Stolpyin's encouragement of emigration took 3.5 million peasants away from the over-populated rural districts of the south and west to Siberia- helped Siberia to develop into a major agricultural region, specialising in daries and cereals
• However, 50% of the land remained in the hands of the nobility and probably less than 1% of peasants achieve Kulak status
