Background

[edit]

The village Rybnaya Sloboda was formed at the end of the 16th century by the decree of Boris Godunov. It was erected near a fort which was intended to secure the external borders of the Russian state on the right bank of the Kama river. The settlement received its name in honor of the national fishing industry, which was practiced by many residents of the Kama villages.[4][5][8]

Rybno-Slobodsky District as an administrative unit within the TASSR was formed on February 14, 1927. Until 1920 the territory was a part of the Laishevsky District and from 1920 to 1927 was included in the Laishevsky canton. On March 26, 1959, new territories which had previously belonged to the abolished Kzyl-Yulduz district were added to the Rybno-Slobodsky district. On January 4, 1963, the district was abolished and part of its territory transferred to the Mamadyshsky district. Yet already on January 12, 1965, the Rybno-Slobodskoy district was restored as an administrative division.[9]

Modern Rybno-Slobodsky District

[edit]

From 2008 to 2017, the Rybno-Slobodskoy district was headed by Ilham Valeev. He was removed from office as a result of numerous violations revealed in the course of an investigation by the anti-corruption department under the President of Tatarstan. Two years later, Valeev's former deputy, Rafik Gadeev was convicted of abuse of power. In 2018, Ildar Tazutdinov was appointed as the new head of the district.[6][10][11]

Population

[edit]

As of 2020, the district had a population of 25,052. The ethnic composition of the region is 78.5% Tatars, 20% Russians, 1.5% other nationalities.[6][4] In 2019, the Rybno-Slobodsky district recorded the worst fertility-to-mortality ratio in the region with elderly residents composing 26.5% of the population and the district death rate exceeded the birth rate by almost two times.[12] The district also faces low birth rates with 153 children were born in 2016 and only 81 in 2017.[13][14] Only 30.81% of the district's population lives in urban conditions (the village of Rybnaya Sloboda).

Municipal-territorial structure

[edit]

The Rybno-Slobodsky municipal district is divided into 1 urban and 26 rural settlements with 78 settlements within them.[15]

Previously existing but abolished settlements of the region include the following: the villages of Bolshoi Atmas, Kolos, Nosovo and Tatarskoye Mordovo, and the villages of Baiteryakovo and Yamash.

The average monthly salary of employees in the district is 25 941 rubles. Salaries of employees of municipal institutions of culture and art earn 29 987 rubles while employees of municipal educational institutions receive an average of 18 260 rubles monthly.[6]

There are several large industrial enterprises in the region including the Rybnoslobodsky butter-dairy plant, the fishery "Krug" (annual catch - about 160 tons) and the brick factory "Stroykeramika".[4][16]

Agriculture

[edit]

The agricultural industry in the region is focused on meat and dairy farming and crop production. Spring wheat, winter rye, barley, oats, peas, and corn are among the main crops cultivated in the region. The total area of agricultural land in the Rybno-Slobodsky district is 104.8 hectares, of which 84.6 hectares are arable land. There are 19 large and medium-sized agricultural enterprises, 77 peasant farms and 9704 private subsidiary plots.[4][14] The number of cows in the district in 2019 amounted to 4,791 units (out of more than 200 thousand throughout the country).[17]

Since 2016, the Rybno-Slobodsky district has been implementing a project of the Krasny Vostok agricultural holding for the production of marbled beef, which was supervised by State Duma deputy Ayrat Khairullin.[18] Было объявлено о инвестициях в компанию в размере 1,3 млрд рублей.[19] An investment in Krasny Vostok to the amount of 1.3 billion rubles was recently announced [36]. In 2019 the poultry enterprise "Rybno-Slobodskaya agrofirm " KAZ " specializing in geese breeding was opened on the territory of the Russian-Oshnyaksky rural settlement. The amount of declared investment for the first stage of construction amounted to 6 million rubles.[20][21] Another large farm in the region, Krug, is engaged in fish farming and fish processing. The annual catch of the plant is about 160 tons; the plant smokes most of its catch and delivers it to stores ready-made.[21] At the beginning of 2020, a plant for breeding African Clarius catfish and catching river fish "Clarius" was opened, where it is planned to farm up to 50 tons of fish per year. At the moment, the project has invested 12 million investments, the total planned amount is 15 million.[22]

In 2012, the construction of a fish hatchery began using support from the republican sectoral program, eventually becoming associated with one of the largest corruption scandals in the region which lead to the dismissal of former head Ilham Valeev. Initially 73 million rubles were allocated for the project from the federal budget, 20 million from the Tatarstan budget. The beneficiaries of the project were the companies of Valeev's relatives. As a result of their embezzlement, construction was frozen due to lack of funds. After this incident, the president of the republic began to personally control the income of regional administrators.[23][24]

Investment potential

[edit]

Five large agricultural investment groups occupy 46% of the agricultural land in the region: the Rybno-Slobodsky butter-dairy plant "Vamin Tatarstan", the largest milk producer in the republic "Krasny Vostok - Agro", the agro-industrial center "RATSIN", and the foreign agricultural machinery concern " Sabagro "[3]. Their average investment volume is considered to be relatively small and amounts to 8,051 rubles per capitaя.[6][7][4]

Since 2018, the district has been implementing a program to improve the working conditions for investors and entrepreneurs. For example, in the village of Bolshoy Mashlyak, an enterprise for the production of sweets was funded with investment attracted from Turkey. Another Turkish investor is Food Alliance, which is building a 100 hectare greenhouse complex. The total amount of declared investment in the project is 17 million rubles. Food Alliance is also the main investment partner of the Tatarstan Hectare project (70 million in investment) - a cooperative on an area of 200 hectares where farmers will be able to grow strawberries, raspberries and currants as well process and pack products on-site. In total, 13 major investors have been attracted to the district in 2018 bringing with them a total of 854 million rubles of investment.[11][25]

In July 2020 the Agency for Tourism Development in Tatarstan announced plans to launch a grant program for the development of the Rybno-Slobodsky District. In this program, small and medium-sized businesses may apply for subsidies of up to 3 million rubles for the development of new tourist routes and tourism infrastructure, including the installation of signage, the creation of audio guide systems, general improvements, the development of a network of glamping sites and the purchase of required equipment. Within the framework of another republic investment project "Five Winds" in the region, there are plans to build a sports and recreation camp with an occupancy of 200, a sailing school, sports and cinema hall as well as an all-season park for active family recreation and a camp site for 120 people.[26][25]

Meteorological studies were carried out in 2019 to assess the potential for wind power generation capacity and renewable energy investment in the region, which is located next to a large body of water, resulting in estimates of a potential for 600 MW of production capacity. As of 2020 construction of a wind farm is planned in the area.[27]

Transport

The M-7 (Volga)Moscow - Kazan - Ufa” highway passes through the north of the district. In the south-west of the district the P-239 "Kazan - Orenburg - border with Kazakhstan" leads to the bridge over the Kama along with the 16K-1091 "Shali - Sorochi Gory" "(Backup R-239 in the section from M-7 to Kama). The road Polyanka (R-239) - Rybnaya Sloboda - Bolshoi Mashlyak (M-7) runs through the district from the south-west to the north-east of the district.

In 2017, two sections of the federal highway M-7 Kazan-Moscow were opened in the district. At the same time, more than 92% of the local population does not have access to bus or railway connections with the administrative center and there are no railway stations. Just over half of the roads in the district meet regulatory requirements.[28][6]

Since 2019 a 19th-century mosque in the village of Bolshaya Yelga has been undergoing restoration under the leadership of the architect Alexander Popov.[30][31][32]
