The Minsk Region is also a leader in the Republic of Belarus. We produce more than a quarter of the country's crop and livestock products. The Minsk Region is a national brand thanks to the quality and environmental friendliness of its raw materials. "By 2025, the cattle population will reach 900,000 head and 17 million head of poultry. We have raised over 500,000 tons of the main livestock and poultry species," he said.
In 2025, the Republic of Belarus imported $48.8 million worth of products to the Republic of Tatarstan, while exporting $50.2 million worth of products in support of the national "Export" project.
At the meeting, prospects for further cooperation and export potential were discussed, along with joint projects in crop production, livestock farming, and mechanization.
