The food ban announced by President Putin in August 2014 flows from the 2010 food security doctrine. Russia is food insecure in animal husbandry production and relies on imports to meet domestic demand. Households, which account for over 40% of food production, are integral to attaining food security. Russia could reduce meat imports if households would sell more animal husbandry products. The article presents a profile of commercialized households, showing that behavioral variables have significant explanatory power. It examines government policy toward behavioral variables, showing some inconsistency in promoting behavior that increases household meat sales
