Ragana air field name was an airfield 48 kilometers northeast of Riga, Latvia.
The airfield was built by the Soviet Union in the 1975-1985 timeframe. It was used for agricultural activities by state-run Aeroflot. It consisted of a small runway and a single medium sized platform to the southeast of the runway.


No photos of the airfield while in use have been located

Latvian Airfields (now MyAirfields) described the airfields condition in April 2011 as 'quite poor':
There are lots of trees and bushes around the runway. Asphalt surface of the runway is damaged.
The airfield is uncertified and officially closed to all taffic. The airfield appears to be relatively intact, but in a very bad shape.

Ragana clearly has a drainage problem, as about 100m of the western end of the runway is covered in water in this 2013 photo (MyAirfields).
