This year Druzhba-Avtyuki agricultural cooperative society (Kalinkovichi district) intends to produce 2,000 of corn seeds, four times as much as in 2005, Belarusian president Alexander Lukashenko was told today as he was visiting the society.
The local agrarians explained, this year the society increased corn seed cultivation area from 150 hectares to 500 hectares. The source believes the crop to be most promising thanks to its radiation resistance as well as good profitability. Due to these reasons the society plans to continue increasing corn production in the future. Therefore, Druzhba-Avtyuki is actively renewing its corn machinery fleet.
