For the majority of the population of the republic, a weekend is a legal time to relax, but the village lives its own special life. The fate of the harvest is in the hands of farmers today and every hour lost threatens with the loss of the crop. The days and hours are limited. Hard-working people are in the fields, ready to forget about weekends and holidays, just to collect a rich harvest and provide the population of their native region and republic with the necessary food.

The farm KAMAI-AGRO was the first in the region to start harvesting crops. Watching the progress of work in Toyma, one feels all the responsibility and importance of the moment.
