Siberia is relativelty stable, from what I have gathered, Mongolia and Manchuria have replaced the east as far as crop production. With the severe shift in climate from Doomsday, these areas have become more fertile and Siberia has seen some thawing. Siberia also controls what is OTL Xinjiang, which is a major agricultural region with 6.2 million ha of land being ariable. In the ATL, it is likely less of this would be usable, but there would still be significant amounts of agriculture. In Mongolia there is approximately 1.3 million ha of crop supporting land, and in the provinces that make up ATL Manchuria, there are crops of rice, sorghum, apples, peaches, pears, apricots, plums, soybean, wheat, potatoes, and corn grown.

Considering the severe drop in population, these new breadbaskets, fishing, as well as trade with Korea, Victoria, and other friendly nations, they would have plenty of food.
