({{langx|sl|pomurska statistična regija}}) is a statistical region in northeast Slovenia. It is predominantly agricultural with field crops representing over three-quarters of the total agricultural area (twice as much as the Slovene average). Climate and soil combined have made it the region with the highest crop production, but its geographical position and inferior infrastructure put it at a disadvantage and it is the region of Slovenia with the lowest GDP per capita (EUR 12,267) and the highest rate of registered unemployment.{{cite web |url=http://www.stat.si/eng/novica_prikazi.aspx?id=3687 |title=Labour force, Slovenia, November 2010 - final data |publisher=Statistical Office of the Republic of Slovenia |date=18 January 2011 |access-date=10 February 2011}}
