On October 13, 2021, the Molyanov Agro Group company, well known in the Russian market as a producer of seed potatoes of elite and reproductive categories, celebrated its fifth anniversary. The general director, Vladimir Molyanov, tells about the results the company has achieved by this date.
WHERE IT ALL STARTED...
MAG was founded in 2016. One of the important tasks of the enterprise was the establishment of production and improvement of potatoes
foreign varieties on the territory of our country in order to remove dependence on import conditions. We purchased minitubers in Russia and abroad. This material allowed us to launch an expanded production of healthy potatoes. Now we have our own high-quality seed material of the "super-elite" and "super-super-elite" classes and can offer our customers good elite and reproductive potatoes.
VARIETIES THAT OUR CUSTOMERS NEED
We cooperate with many well-known breeding companies, including: Bavaria-Saat, Europlant, Potato FRC named after. Lorja, Comptoir Du Plant, Solana. Thanks to this, Molyanov Agro Group works with a large portfolio of varieties - from early ones, such as Riviera (Agrico selection) and Colomba (Agrico selection HZPC), to mid-season and chips.
CLEANING RESULTS 2021
Many of our varieties this year showed such results that the season cannot be called "non-potato". The record holder was Grand with a yield of 720 c/ha (in some areas - up to 1000 c/ha!). Colomba gave a yield of 600 c/ha, Sevim and Bettina - from 400 c/ha and above.
Harvesting was completed in mid-October, by which time a significant part of the harvest had already been sold. The trend of recent years: regular customers make pre-orders for seeds in the spring and during the summer. Due to the fact that cultivation is carried out on irrigated areas and in
different regions of the country, we can guarantee the buyer that he will receive the products of the required quality and in the right volume.
DEVELOPMENT OF DOMESTIC SELECTION
In 2016, many asked - will the new company be involved in breeding? Then it seemed to me that we do not have such an opportunity. But we are still involved in this process. The main reason is the launch of the FSTP subprogram “Development of selection and seed production of potatoes in the Russian Federation”. With the support of partner breeders, based on their own experience, they developed a project and won a grant. In 2018, a selection center was created, and crossbreeding was carried out. With the help of colleagues from the Federal Research Center for Potato named after Lorja and Bavaria Saat received seedlings, of which in 2019
selected a promising variety (it was named Julia). They tested it in different conditions for two years, and then applied for state tests. We hope that this early maturing, high-yielding variety will soon be included in our lineup.
SUCCESS FORMULA
There is no formula, of course. But we have a slogan: “The success of our clients is our success”, which can be realized only with the support of a team: well-coordinated and professional. Our team is working to ensure that the customers of our potatoes are always happy with the harvest in the field and, as a result, they buy good agricultural machinery and drive good cars. This is the result you can be proud of.
