Abstract
The paper analyzes the most important segment of horse breeding in the conditions of a fundamental change in the general economic situation in agriculture in general and the horse industry in particular. In a significant time aspect (1991-2018), the dynamics of the producing composition of the stud farms’ breeding stock and their placement in the federal districts of the Russian Federation are rigorously analyzed. The modern livestock of horse stud mares has been categorized, included in the state breeding register and in the main breeding areas. Changes in the producing composition of the breeding stock of all breed directions are investigated. Analysis of the number of horses in the country (for 28 years) shows that the total number of factory mares decreased from 6.3 to 3.4 thousand heads or by 49.2%. The number of saddle mares increased by 42.5%, from 362 to 516 heads. It was established that during the analyzed period, all production and economic indicators of horse breeding decreased. Successfully tested in many foreign countries, a system of financial sustainability and high efficiency of horse breeding in the form of targeted support (using the national equestrian sweepstake) has not been established in the industry.
