A new seed farm will appear as part of the Agroproject of the August company. The agricultural enterprise, on the basis of which this direction will develop, is located in the Tyulyachinsky district of the Republic of Tatarstan and covers an area of 10 thousand hectares. It is assumed that in the future it will provide seed for the expanding lands of Agroproject in the Volga region, as the company "August" plans to continue to increase the land bank - up to 250-300 thousand hectares.
Another farm on the territory of the Volga region became part of the Agroproject of the August company. The new agricultural company includes a dairy farm and areas for plant growing - grain and fodder crops were grown here. The farm area is 10 thousand hectares, it is located in the Tyulyachinsky district of the Republic of Tatarstan. The previous owner of the land was Tatagroleasing JSC. The deal for their acquisition was closed at the end of September 2020.
“In the days of the USSR, this enterprise of the agro-industrial complex was quite widely known as the“ Experimental Production Enterprise named after V.I. Lenin ". Subsequently, both its names and owners changed, and this autumn it came under the management of the August-Agro Management Company. The farm is located in the very center of the Republic of Tatarstan. It has its advantages, in particular, its rather extensive areas - about 10 thousand hectares - are consolidated in one place. It is convenient from the point of view of logistics, - explains Aydar Galyautdinov, General Director of the August-Agro Management Company. - We had an idea to create a new seed farm in these territories. It is assumed that it will be implemented within the next 3 years. Strengthening the seed production direction will be necessary if we take into account the plans of the company "August" to expand "Agroproject" in the Volga region and increase the acreage. "
The new farm in Tyulyachinsky district will grow grain and leguminous crops, rapeseed, sunflower and forage grasses. The development of dairy farming will also continue at this site: the existing dairy farm will be reconstructed (per 1 head of cattle). As Aydar Galyautdinov notes, among other plans - investments in the modernization of infrastructure for agricultural machinery and grain-flow facilities, as well as the development of corporate social initiatives aimed at both farm workers (in particular, increasing the average wage) and the local population in the whole.
