is also highly sensitive to inter-annual climate variability, as expressed in growing season weather. Multiple studies have debated the relative roles of agricultural policy changes, weather variability and climate change in the performance of agriculture

Detailed analysis of climate variability and policy changes in the Russian Federation in the twentieth century can be found in Dronin and Bellinger (2005). Furthermore, Dronin and Kirilenko (2013) examined the relative roles of climate and state agricultural policies affecting production of cereals using statistical yield modelling and found a tight
