Spring fieldwork is in full swing. The sowing campaign is proceeding at an intensive pace in all regions of the country. Agrarians work all day long. Weather conditions help. This year's spring is early. The main bread crops for sowing are barley and oats, they are less demanding. And yet it's important to keep up with the moisture in the soil. Special attention is paid to technology and quality land preparation. The government has to promptly solve the problems that arise.
Ivan Krupko, Minister of Agriculture and Food of Belarus: "Virtually all the machinery, which is 93%, is ready for sowing. I think that the readiness of agricultural machinery will increase day by day. Enough fuel has been accumulated to conduct the sowing campaign in the shortest possible time."
The sowing of early spring crops is scheduled to be completed within a week. The risks from drought are much higher, as compared to frost. That's why more space this year was given to corn. Its planting will begin about mid-April.
Sowing campaign proceeds at high pace nationwide
