Historical background

The settlement of Oktyabrsky was established on 11 May 1960 by Decision No. 171 of the Troitsky District Executive Committee; prior to that, the locality was called "1st Department of the Proletary State Poultry Breeding Sovkhoz." In 1957, the kolkhoz named after Thälmann, with the localities of Petrovka, Pesyanka, and Bolshaya Rechka, was merged into the Proletary poultry sovkhoz; by 1959, the number of production departments had increased to seven. In March 1968, the Proletary state breeding sovkhoz was divided into two sovkhozes — the Proletary State Breeding Sovkhoz and the Petrovsky Sovkhoz; the enterprise retained five departments: Oktyabrskoye, Beryozovskoye, Razdolnoye, Klyukvennoye, and Zavodskoye, with a total land area of 18,952 hectares. As of 1 January 2026, the settlement's population is 374.
