The regions of the Volga Federal District are included in the Volgo-Vyatka, Povolzhsky and Uralsky economic regions... In most of the territory of the Volga Federal District, natural conditions are favorable for human life and management economic activity... This part of the district is located in the zones of steppe, forest-steppe, mixed and deciduous forests. Fertile chernozems and gray forest soils, located on a weakly dissected plain, prevail. In the northern part of the district, located in the taiga zone, infertile podzolic soils prevail, a high degree of waterlogging of the territory is due to excessive moisture... As a result, the development of many sectors of the economy here is significantly hampered by natural conditions.
Of the natural resources, the most important in the Volga Federal District are the deposits of fuel minerals. Various ore and non-metallic minerals are distinguished East End districts. Here are located large deposits potash and sodium chloride, rare building materials (granite, marble, etc.) as well as small deposits of copper, nickel, chromium, lead, iron ore, titanium, diamonds, phosphorites (Kirov region), native sulfur (Samara region), limestone (Samara and Saratov regions) and other common building materials (clays, sands, gravel, etc.).
The main branches of market specialization are in industry - oil and gas industry, electric power industry, mechanical engineering (especially the automotive industry), ferrous and non-ferrous metallurgy, chemical industry, food industry, and in agriculture - the production of grain and sunflower, vegetable growing, meat and dairy cattle breeding.

The Volga Federal District is located in the east of the European part of Russia in the basin of the Volga River and its tributaries. The distribution of the population is extremely uneven. The main zone of settlement runs along the Volga, the district-forming significance of which gave rise to a number of large energy-intensive industries, which later became the branches of the district's specialization.
The Volga Federal District in terms of raw materials has a fairly clearly expressed oil specialization. Accordingly, the region's economy has the largest share in production mineral resources occupies oil and gas production. Oil and gas reserves account for 13% and 2% of the total Russian reserves, respectively, while the production level is 25% and 5%, respectively. The Okrug has the highest share of reserves (at least 70%) that are difficult to recover. 54% of zinc production and 19% of copper production are concentrated here, with reserves of 19% and 16%, respectively, of the total Russian level... Silver mining is at a fairly high level (35% of the Russian level) with reserves of 14%. There are gold deposits in the district (about 8%), the development of which gives 7% of Russia's production. The Volga Federal District has unique reserves of potash salts (about 96% of all explored resources of the country) and phosphorites (60%), which are used for the production of mineral fertilizers. There are large reserves of various raw materials for the production of building materials in the district. On a massive scale, building materials are produced based on the resources of sand, clay, gravel and building stone, as well as drinking and from underground water sources.

The production specialization of the Nizhny Novgorod region is mechanical engineering. Automotive, shipbuilding, machine-tool, diesel-building enterprises operate in the region. In addition, the chemical, food, and other industries are represented in the Nizhny Novgorod region. The industry of the Perm Territory specializes in woodworking and the production of mineral fertilizers. Machine-building, chemical and petrochemical enterprises also operate in the region. In the Republic of Tatarstan, the production of trucks ("KAMAZ") and equipment for petrochemical industry, and in the Samara region - the production of cars ("VAZ") and metal-cutting machine tools.
