In the village of Kamyshi, Kurtamyshsky district, the second stage of the pig farm is being prepared for commissioning. Agrofirm Russkoe Pole built a reproducer for 500 sows, farrowing and nursery areas, as well as two fattening areas. Now the exterior finishing of buildings is underway, street lighting and a video surveillance system are being installed, floors are being laid, and in April it is planned to bring in breeding stock.



The entire technological process will be controlled by computers, including providing an appropriate microclimate, feed and water supply, as well as a manure removal system. However, it is planned to employ 12 operators at the new production facility. The construction of the second stage of the pig farm was not cheap for the farm: the total costs amounted to more than 200 million rubles.

“No matter how difficult it was, we managed without borrowed funds and did not take loans for construction,” said Sergey Koryukin, founder of the Russkoye Pole agricultural company.

With the launch of the second stage and the output of the pig farm to its design capacity, the number of pigs on the farm will increase from seven to fifteen thousand heads, which will make it the largest in the region.

To date, 120 people work in the agricultural company "Russian Field" - these are residents of the village. Reeds and nearby settlements. The farm pays great attention to the social sphere, including providing housing for the company's specialists - in recent years the farm has built nine apartments, which are allocated to its employees free of charge, and after ten years of work they become their property. In addition, more than ten apartments were purchased by the farm on the secondary market and also transferred to its employees.

In 2021, it was an anniversary year for the enterprise - the agricultural company celebrated the 20th anniversary of its activity. During this time, a path has been passed from a small peasant farm with 500 hectares of arable land to a modern enterprise with high-tech production and a well-established infrastructure for marketing products.
