Muslyumovsky District (Russian: Муслюмовский райо́н; Tatar: Мөслим районы) is a territorial administrative unit and municipal district of the Republic of Tatarstan within the Russian Federation. The administrative centre of the district is the village of Muslyumovo. At the beginning of 2020, 19,326 persons lived in the district. The entirety of the district population are rural residents.[3]
The district was established in 1930. In 1959, part of the territory of the abolished Kalininsky district was annexed to it. In 1963, the district was abolished with the transfer of its territory to the Menzelinsky and Sarmanovsky districts, but already at the end of 1965 it had been reestablished within its contemporary borders.[4]
There is a small oil field in the district. Since 2002, its development has been carried out by "Mellyaneft". The main engine of the district economy is agriculture. There is a state natural park of biological (botanical) profile "Narat-Astinsky bor" in the district.[5][6][7][8][9][10]
