Abstract. Introduction. The article examines the problem of organizing the provision of service people in Siberia with grain reserves, which were collected as a special tax from the lands of the south-eastern part of the Pomorye during the reign of B.F. Godunov along the road from Sol Kamskaya to Verkhoturye.
Methods and materials. The source base is the official material of the Verkhoturye and Solikamsk administrative huts, individual documents of the Siberian order. The method of diachronic analysis obtained a year-by-year picture of how transportation functioned from 1596/97 to 1605. The method of comparative analysis clarified the dynamics of changes in the amounts of salary fees for each individual region of the Pomorye.
Analysis. The article clarifies the idea of the administrative management of Verkhoturye at the end of the 16th and beginning of the 17th centuries, gives a general description of the system for collecting and sending grain reserves, as well as the accompanying duty in the form of a ship case, clarifies the features of the organization of supplies, and systematizes and calculates their norms by year.
Results. It was possible to establish that the Moscow government, first from the court of clerk I. Vakhromeev and, after 1599, from the Order of the Kazan and Meshchersky Palace, directly controlled Verkhoturye. Until 1597, supplies were carried out through Cherdyn and Lozva, and from 1598 through Sol Kamskaya in Verkhoturye. In 1596/97 and 1597/98. The largest volumes of grain reserves were supplied from the territories of Perm the Great and Vyatka. In 1600/01 and 1601/02, instead of the territory of the Pomorye, grain harvests were delivered to Sol Kamskaya from Kazan; the Pomors were engaged in transportation to Siberia. The share of transportation was higher near Vyatka and Ustyug the Great, as in 1604/05, when the collection of grain reserves resumed from the territory of the Pomorye. The scheme for public procurement of grain reserves developed by the government can be assessed as effective; however, management difficulties also arose due to the remote location of the region, abuse of the official powers of the governor, the forced need to quickly find funds to resolve issues locally, and attempts by carriers to find their own benefits and avoid losses.
Key words: Siberian grain reserves, taxation, Pomorye, Verkhoturye, beginning of the 17th century, Boris Fedorovich Godunov, Babinovskaya road, management.
