The yield is 150 centners per hectare, last year it was 219. The maturation of root crops, like other crops, has shifted by at least 3 weeks due to the cold and rainy summer. Therefore, the department predicts that potatoes may still grow.
Provided that the weather is warm. For the same reason less than 1% of vegetables have been harvested. Cereals, too, are not yet ripe everywhere. At the moment, 23% of the plan has been removed. The yield is 17 centners per hectare. Last year this figure was slightly lower. But then they were able to remove all 100%.
Sergey Ivanov, director of the agro-industrial complex department: “With regard to grain, it should be borne in mind that about 4 thousand hectares have perished in our country, so we will definitely collect less grain, we estimate preliminary grain losses of about 30%, that is, the shortfall with last year ... purchase of seeds, especially seeds of grasses and elite grains, in order to purchase them this year at a relatively cheap price, so that by next year it will come out with a stock of seeds.
