Tyumentsev was invited to the village of Iska of the Nizhnetavdinsky district, located 45 km from the regional center, to pick up excess potatoes.
A video with tons of potato tubers collected in huge piles appeared on social networks. “Potatoes in unlimited quantities - come, take as much as you want. This is the harvest of 2019. It's stunned, ”says the voiceover and explains the approximate location of the“ free potato field. ”
The correspondent found out that the autumn "distribution of potatoes" in Iska is almost a tradition. For several years now, a local individual entrepreneur has been "getting rid" of substandard potatoes, distributing them to those in need.
Tyumen reacted ambiguously to the invitation. Someone - got on the road, someone - was wary, suggesting that the "thrown away" potatoes might be unsafe, someone - condemned those who refused the "excess harvest" and dumped it in piles in the open.
The situation was commented on by the first deputy head of the Nizhnetavdinsky district, Alexander Larionov. “The potatoes are located on the territory that belongs to an individual entrepreneur. Every year after harvest, the discarded part of the potato - substandard tubers - is collected and placed on the site. It is taken by the needy, as well as by those who keep the cattle, ”he explained. Alexander Ivanovich noted that distribution of potatoes in Isk in September is a common thing and if Tyumen residents take part in the analysis of potato debris, then no one will object.
It is worth noting that in early autumn, many Tyumen entrepreneurs-agrarians and agricultural enterprises traditionally "get rid" of the excess crop, inviting everyone to take it and those in need. As a rule, surpluses do not settle for a long time. Fans of a free crop manage to make it out in a couple of days. In the field, farmers leave, as a rule, substandard (this is not too beautiful, but of quite acceptable quality products), or that they simply did not have time to collect. If this crop is not harvested, it will simply remain in the field and rot, turning into fertilizer.
