Voronezh region for the first time exceeded the mark of 1 million tons of milk produced - Alexander Gusev

‘However, we have not reached the values of 2019 in crop production, but there are objective reasons for this, that year was a record yield for our region, and we will try to maintain the achieved level of records in this area. First of all, by improving technologies and introducing new fertilizers, this will create the necessary effect for us,’ the governor noted.

He also added that it is important that even in adverse weather conditions, the financial and economic situation of agricultural enterprises remains stable.

‘We see that the number of enterprises operating with profit has increased in economy as a whole and in agriculture in particular. Moreover, we see an increase in gross profit, an increase of about 12% in 2021 compared to 2019. This is confirmed by the receipt of income tax, it has increased by 16% in general. Therefore, I believe that our main achievement, which we were able to achieve together with the workers of our region, is overcoming the consequences of the pandemic,’ concluded Alexander Gusev.
