In the upcoming year, farmers are planning to plant various crops on their fields, including root vegetables, wheat, sunflower, and corn.
The Department of Agriculture and Food Industry of the Tyumen Region has announced that over a million hectares of land will be sown with various grains, vegetables, and oil crops in 2024.
The equipment of the company "Agro-Sib-Alliance" has already been sent to the fields in the Tyumen region. Carrots have already been sown on five hectares in four districts: Zavodoukovsky, Tyumen, Uporovsky, and Yalutorovsky.
This became possible thanks to the tracked vehicles capable of dealing with wet areas of the fields, which could bog down wheeled machinery.
Agricultural work has already begun on fragrantly moist fields. Over 3700 tractors, 2718 seeders, and 1084 cultivators will be involved in spring work in the Tyumen region. Farmers are ready to work, awaiting only favorable weather conditions and optimal soil moisture.
Thanks to the weather conditions, early harrowing has already been completed on almost all fields in the Tyumen region, except for some districts. Over 93,000 hectares of land have already been processed, which is 11% of the planned work.
In addition, agricultural producers have created 83 kilometers of mineralized strips, which is 6% of the planned volumes, and disinfected over 18,000 tons of seeds, which is 11% of the required volume.
