Typology of the central Russia regions according to indicators of chicken eggs production per capita

The statistical analysis of the eggs production dynamics per capita in the regions of the Central Federal District in 2010-2016 from the standpoint of selfsufficiency in this product has been carried out. Linear regional models of indicator dynamics have been obtained, the parameters of which reflect the average level and the average annual growth in production. We offer to group the regions according to the egg production level per capita with the help of the psychophysical desirability function of Harrington, the parameters of which are set taking into account the consumption norms and statistical properties of the regional area sampling. This approach allows us to establish a correspondence between the natural values of the indicator and the assessment of the self-sufficiency level.
