Azerbaijan's agricultural production increased 1.4% in volume in January-October. Output at current prices totaled AZN 13.12 billion, according to official figures released on November 13.

Livestock production rose 1.6% and crop production 1.2%. Their shares of output value were almost equal, at 49.8% and 50.2% respectively.

Production growth is not a measure of farmers' income. Farm profitability also depends on selling prices and the cost of feed, fertiliser, energy and transport.
