New varieties of potato and grain seeds, bred by breeders of the Moscow Region, showed good results, despite the difficult weather conditions of this sowing campaign. This was announced to reporters by the Minister of Agriculture of the Moscow Region Andrei Razin at the All-Russian Field Day 2017 agrotechnological exhibition in Tatarstan.
“Fulfilling the president’s instructions, Moscow region agrarians use seeds from the Moscow Region selection, especially in grain farming. Our seed growers also work on seed potatoes, ”said Razin.
The sowing campaign was complicated in the Moscow region due to the fact that until the end of May the region had frosts of -2 ° C, and June was rainy. Also on May 29 and June 30 thunderstorms with heavy rains, hail and strong winds took place in the Moscow region.
