Is this a heritage of Khruschev era, urban households growing vegeables in
the backyard? Russia has land in plenty, but how much is cultivable?

Russians have higher per capita income than Indians. They can afford $200
per sq. metre. An urban Indian is happy if he can afford 6 x 6 apartment to
live in Metro towns !

Russia began to import large quantities of corn in the Brezhnev era to feed
the livestock. Have they stopped all that?
