Russia has a huge amount of renewable freshwater resources. They are estimated at 4.3 thousand cubic kilometers a year.

This is the second largest in the world, after Brazil. 78% of this vast wealth is beyond the Ural Mountains - Siberia and the Far East. But even here there are problems. While in Russia as a whole volume of water resources per capita - one of the highest in the world (30,000 cubic meters per person per year, and in northern Siberia almost 320 000 cubic meters), then in these parts, the south-west of Siberia, only 14 thousands. And the neighbors to the south of the Ural District only 4.4 thousand cubic meters.
