Tatarstan President inspects harvest campaign in Tyulyachi region

On August 6, during his working trip to Tyulyachi region, Tatarstan President Rustam Minnikhanov made a helicopter flight over the region’s fields and talked with heads of the local farms.

With a total of 22,100 hectares of grain crops to be collected, 3,000 hectares or 14 per cent of the total area have been harvested. As many as 6,800 hectares of crops have been threshed, with the average crop yield of 22.8 centners per hectare.

Speaking to journalists, Rustam Minnikhanov noted that he positively assessed the harvest campaign in the republic. “Southern regions have already reached the half-way point. But you are ready here too, yield could be higher but it is not bad. I hope we will provide population with necessary forage, food and vegetables provided there are no natural disasters,” the President said.

Estimating the harvest campaign in Tyulyachi region, Tatarstan President said that he has no claims against the region, because it is one of the most organized regions in Tatarstan.
