TFR by Federal Subjects
This is a list of values of total fertility rates by federal subjects of Russia

The historical variation in TFR in RF is given in the table below. 

Historical TFR for CIS is given below. 

Live Births by federal regions of Russia for the period 1990-2004 is given below. 

TFR by Ethnic Groups
TFR is usually high for non Slavic groups like Caucassians and Mongoloid people. But for some minorities like Balkars (Caucassian) and Karelians (Finnic) it is lower than the general population. Jews have the lowest TFR among the larger groups, while Nenets have the highest for the 25-29 and 30-35 age groups, which reflect recent births. Out of the dozens of groups listed here, only 6 have an above replacement fertility(2.06) for the 30-34 age group. They are Nenet(2.372), Chechen(2.228), Dargwa(2.118), Avar (2.111), Chukchee(2.081) and Ingush(2.072). For Jews, the TFR is less than half of that needed for replacement. For the 30-34 group, the lowest TFR were for Jews(1.071), Russians(1.323), Balkars(1.389) and Byelorussians(1.395). TFR for the 25-29 group gives the latest trends on birth rate. For that group, highest TFR were for the Nenet(1.749) and Chukchee(1.615), while the lowest were for Jews(0.791),Balkar(0.808), Osset(0.896)and Karachai(0.940). The fertility for 25-29 group is not completed and so it is difficult to predict. But comparison with 1989 census shows huge drop in fertility in West Caucassia (Esp. Karachayevo Cherkissia, Adyghea and North Ossetia) and some parts of Arctic Russia (Murmansk, Komi.etc). The Fertility in East Caucassia is fairly stable, although decreasing. The figures given are from 2002 census and it should be noted that the lowest birth rate recorded in Russia was on 1999 and it increased there after. After 2002, it continued to increase and for the first half of 2007, the birth rate is 10.7 compared to 8.7 in 1999. . Fertility rates for the period after 2002 is not available.
