"The village is good, the collective farm is great!" Farmers from 75 countries and Gerard Depardieu came here to study

May 25, MINSK . The DIRECTOR of JSC "Ozeritsky-Agro" Nina Zheleznova is known to many people not only in our country. In the household, which she manages, they always receive in our way, in Belarusian - hospitably. They show how grain is grown, where MILK rivers begin .

Nina Zheleznova hosted delegations from 75 countries, including heads of foreign governments and even the president of one of the states. The famous French actor Gerard Depardieu also came to see her, who at that time, according to rumors, had a farm near Saransk, in RUSSIA. Then the artist was walking with a sweeping step through the barn with open windows and fans driving cool air. He asked in bewilderment: "Where are the flies? Why are there no flies?" - "No dirt - no flies!" - Nina Zheleznova explained to the incomprehensible monsieur.

Now winter barley is earing on the fields of JSC "Ozeritsky-Agro". Winter wheat is gaining strength. “About 4 thousand hectares of winter and spring crops, 2 thousand hectares of corn, 280 hectares of potatoes have been sown. The state order will be fulfilled in full . After the sowing week, we will take a break and start harvesting fodder. Milk rivers and MEAT banks are daily work, "Nina Zheleznova notes. In the 15 years she has been in charge of the farm, a lot has changed in it. For example, production has grown exponentially. "We supplied 30 tons of milk, now - more than 90 tons. The milk rivers of Ozeritsky are our wealth. The cow is a sacred animalnot only in India, but also in Belarus. She, like a fabulous antelope, fills the country with white gold," the director believes .

Nina Zheleznova is another heroine. With her, we talk about what farmers tell children in live lessons about what they have for the 2023 harvest and who, regardless of whether he was born in a village or in a city, they call their man.

Every week in the newspaper "7 days" and on the BELTA website we look at the world through the eyes of ordinary Belarusians who sincerely love their work, family and country. All our heroes are unique, but they are united by one thing - loyalty to themselves and the land where they live.

The project was created at the expense of targeted collection for the production of national content.
