Technical equipment of Minsk oblast farms allows harvesting grain and leguminous crops for 20 days, the chairman of the Minsk regional executive committee Anatoly Isachenko told reporters today, BelTA has learned.
"In the Minsk region this year cereals and legumes are to be cleaned on an area of 518 thousand hectares, there are more than 2.1 thousand harvesters in the farms, almost all of them have already started work." The load per harvester allows for 20 showers Days to remove all areas, "- said Anatoly Isachenko.
According to the experts of the agricultural sector, the grain harvest in the Minsk region this year is 10-12% higher than last year. Tentatively, the agrarians will receive about 2 million tons of grain without taking into account corn. The main task of the chairman of the Minsk Regional Executive Committee called the high-quality and timely harvesting.
Anatoly Isachenko noted that farms are provided with fuel and fuels and lubricants. The capacities of the region's drying facilities make it possible to take about 170,000 tons of grain a day. With the projected harvesting of 100 thousand tons of grain a day on average, there should not be any deterrent factors during the drying process, the governor believes.
In the region, considerable attention is paid to the motivation of agricultural workers to ensure a quality harvest of grain. So, if the machine operator, on average, threshes 1 thousand tons of grain, his monthly salary in the equivalent will be $ 1 thousand
Chairman of the Minsk Regional Executive Committee noted the existence of personnel issues in individual farms, but assured that they will not affect the overall picture of the harvesting campaign. He drew attention to the fact that in the region there may be difficulties with carrying out winter sowing because of a shift in the timing of harvesting. "It is necessary to start sowing winter rapeseed already on August 10. A decision has been made to additionally attract machine operators to work on energy-saturated tractors," said Anatoly Isachenko, "We agreed that no tractor should stand in the workshop, except for those that are under repair Tractors that are engaged in plowing will work in two shifts.This approach will allow the completion of harvesting and subsequent sowing campaign activities at the right time. "
The Minsk region makes a significant contribution to ensuring the country's food security. A quarter of all agricultural production is produced here. Anatoly Isachenko stressed that certain measures are being developed that should allow making this contribution even more significant.
