The All-Russian festival of honey was held last weekend in the Alekseevsky district. The Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Food of the Republic of Tatarstan Nazip Khazipov took part in the thematic conference of beekeepers.

During the conference, they discussed both the problems of the beekeeping industry (production costs, the death of bees) and the development strategy of this area.
“The cooperative created by our fellow countryman Sergey Katkov has become a worthy platform for discussing beekeeping problems and finding their solutions. We are always open for dialogue and ready to make every effort to support our producers, selling beekeeping products, among other things, ”said the head of the district Sergey Demidov.
“The festival, which takes place today in the Alekseevsky district, is a good platform for discussion and search for solutions to existing problems. I am sure that such an event has great prospects, ”said Nazip Khazipov.
The guests of the event were greeted with a concert of amateur performances and were treated to tea with herbs and fragrant honey. Also by the festival, an exhibition and sale of honey of various varieties was organized. In addition, not only the beekeepers of Tatarstan brought their products, but also beekeepers from Udmurtia, Rostov-on-Don and other regions of Russia.
