The Berd () is a river in Russia, a right tributary of the Ob.
The Berd begins on the western slopes of the Salair ridge, flows 30 km in Altai Krai territory and the rest in Novosibirsk Oblast. The river empties into the Novosibirsk Reservoir, which submerged 40 km of the original Berd river after construction.
The Berd is 363 km long and was formerly 416 km long. Its drainage basin covers 8650 km2. The Ik is a tributary flowing into it from the north. Another river flowing into it is the Anfimov Mocheg.

Discharge averages 45.8 m3/s. Ice forms on the river in the first weeks of November and breaks apart in mid-April.
Naming, it is thought, is from Turkic languages "Berdi" with the meaning of "given".
Two cities, Berdsk and Iskitim, are along the river.
