Lukashenko outlined priority areas for agriculture development
President of Belarus Aleksandr Lukashenko has outlined a number of tasks for representatives of the agro-industrial complex at today’s meeting in Shklov that focused on the effective development of agricultural production in Shklov and Orsha districts
The Head of State noted that all heads of agricultural enterprises of the Orsha and Shklov districts had been invited to participate in the meeting, “It is necessary to discuss the issues in detail and make final decisions. There should be a return from what has been injected. There should be no mistakes, since much money was invested. Technological and performance discipline is the key point. Before asking for money, show that the each invested Rouble will give ten Roubles in revenue.”
In this regard, the President outlined a number of priority areas in the development of the industry, “Firstly, the integration of agricultural producers needs to be continued, and large companies with a full production cycle should be created in the areas they are in need. Secondly, enlargement should take place on the basis of strong farms with a clear and understandable specialisation – to set an example. Thirdly, transformations should be implemented in strict compliance with all technologies, a well-developed raw material base and the strictest discipline.”
Aleksandr Lukashenko added that not only the chairmen of district executive committees, but also the governors will bear responsibility for the result, “Specific officials from executive committees, ministries, the Government, the President Administration, the Property Management Directorate and the Academy of Sciences should be assigned for each event, organisation, field, farm and other objects of the programme.”
The Head of State stressed that he would like those present to make concrete proposals rather than to get engaged into self-reports and idle chatter.
