Abstract
The study determines productivity, biological and explotation stocks of the most common wild growing plants from Vacciniaceae family in Russia: lingonberry (Vaccinium vitis-idaea L.), blueberry (V. uliginosum L.), cranberry (V. oxycoccos L.), and bilberry species. These species have significant stocks in natural habitats in Russia and are being collected for industrial purposes and personal consumption. The largest volumes of raw material (fruits and also leaves in case of lingonberry) were being collected in 1985-1989, but they sharply decreased at the end of 20th century. Productivity of berry thickets differs within Federal Districts, administrative regions and plant communities.
