Rybno-Slobodsky District (Russian: Ры́бно-Слобо́дский райо́н; Tatar: Балык Бистәсе районы) is a territorial administrative unit and municipal district of the Republic of Tatarstan within the Russian Federation. It is located in the central part of the republic, on the right bank of the Kama River. The administrative center is the urban-type settlement Rybnaya Sloboda. As of 2020, the district had a total population of 25,052 people. The total land area of the district is 2053 km2.[4]

The village of Rybnaya Sloboda was formed by the decree of Boris Godunov at the end of the 16th century. The settlement received its name in honor of the fishing industry widespread in the region, in which participated many residents of the Kama villages. The Rybno-Slobodsky district was formed as an administrative unit in 1927.[4][5]

The region is predominantly agricultural with around 1181.1 km2 of land designated for agricultural use. Five large agricultural firms operate in the region, occupying 46% of agricultural land: Vamin Tatarstan, Krasny Vostok - Agro, Kulon, Ratsin, Saba Agro.[4][6][7]
