Deputy Prime Minister of the Republic of Tatarstan - Minister of Agriculture and Food of the Republic of Tatarstan Marat Zyabbarov reported on the results of the development of the livestock industry in the first quarter of this year at a republican meeting in the Government House of the Republic of Tatarstan.

The Russian Ministry of Agriculture held meetings, dedicated to ensuring the smooth operation of agricultural producers in the context of the coronavirus epidemic.

Scientists at TatNIIKhS believe that no barley plant protection measure has such a high return on investment and effectiveness as seed dressing, since more than 60% of phytopathogens are transmitted through seeds. Sowing with infected seeds leads to the transfer of diseases to vegetative plants and thereby creates and maintains foci of infection in crops.

No modern livestock enterprise can be effective without modern herd management programs. The most successful managers know this, because it is impossible to effectively monitor, analyze and manage all livestock production processes on the farm without automated accounting, without which the head of the enterprise is “blind” and does not control the process on the farm, but turns into a team leader involved in the process.

The agricultural enterprises of Tatarstan do not stop working during the coronavirus infection pandemic and began to deliver products to the hospitals of Kazan. One of the first such assistance was provided by the Mamadysh factory "Alphabet of cheese".
