Abstract
A possible means to replenish the state treasury of the Moscow kingdom was the practice of leasing state and other lands to private individuals. The tenants paid rent as a fixed sum (monetary payment) to the treasure. In the Arctic zone of the European North-East of Russia, the leased objects were hayfields and fishing grounds on sea or lake coast and on river banks of the Pustozersky district. Moreover, the land on which trading establishments were built was subject to quitrent. Over the course of the XVI and XVII centuries, the register of quitrent lands in the Pustozersky district expanded and, consequently, the income received from them by the state increased.
