During a working visit to Logoisk district, the President of Belarus familiarized himself with the course of spring field work and the development of Minsk region. The Head of State paid particular attention to the work of those farms that had previously been transferred as sponsored organizations to large enterprises and private entities. Alexander Lukashenko inquired how effectively they work, and ordered them to be audited. Also, specific instructions were made by the leader, in particular, related to the rational use of fertilizers.
The Head of State was also shown the work of new types of agricultural equipment. In real field conditions, the experimental model of the MTZ 13-32 tractor turned out to be successful.
