On July 22, Tatarstan President Rustam Minnikhanov visited the Yagodnaya dolina (Berry Valley) farm in Zelenodolsk region, Tatarstan.

Head of the farm Ildar Sitdikov told Rustam Minnikhanov about this year’s harvest and plans to develop the farm and grow plant raising stock up to 500 species.
The Yagodnaya dolina farm provides assistance and support to other regional farms to develop fruit and berries industry (plant raising, etc.).
The farm employs 40 people. The preparatory works for large-scale production of ornamental planting stock for the needs of Tatarstan and other Russian regions are underway.
It is expected that in the future the Yagodnaya dolina project will have two main areas, including fruit and berries and ornamental flowers. According to Ildar Sitdikov, the project is implemented under the technical supervision of experts from KIKSI (Latvia) and Jan Langeedijk (Holland).
