According to the Minister of Agriculture Vladimir Neznanov, according to the signed agreement between the Ministry of Agriculture RB and administrations of regions, areas under crops in these territories will not decrease. Thus, in Trans-Urals it is allocated 300 thousand hectares for sowing in 2013.

“Our grain is highly valued in the world market. We will not forget also that cattle-breeding production increases in our republic, therefore grain is necessary to receive mixed fodder,” Vladimir Neznanov marked. “Therefore our task is to support local farmers.”
