The head of the organization known as LLC "Northern Garden", Viktor Karpov, announced that various events, including seminars, conferences, master classes, and product tastings, will be held in a special pavilion. Additionally, within the grant project, excursions with an exhibition and sale of their own products, such as juices, jams, and preserves, are planned.
Viktor Karpov emphasized that tourists are not allowed to freely move around the industrial garden area. However, he realizes that city dwellers would like to have the opportunity to pick berries and eat them right from the bush. That's why a section will be organized near the pavilion where red, black, and golden currants, gooseberries, raspberries, sea buckthorn, and strawberries will be grown.
With the arrival of spring, the production site of the enterprise will open its doors for the "Advanced Engineering School" project, which has been successfully operating at the "Northern Garden" for several years.
This year, two groups of students from the Biological Institute of TSU worked at the enterprise. One group, consisting of biology students, worked on developing a plant nutrition system to increase productivity. At the same time, ornithology students suggested installing artificial hollows in the forest belts where predatory birds such as owls, falcons, and merlins prefer to inhabit. These birds are natural enemies of thrushes, which can cause serious damage to the harvest, up to its destruction by 35%.
Grants within the "Agrotourism" program from the Ministry of Agriculture of Russia are aimed at increasing productivity and implementing modern technologies in berry cultivation.
