At JSC "Berezinsky Rayagroservis" of the Berezinsky district at the Polozhino MTC, all livestock buildings required repairs to the facade, roof, gates, and stalls.

Thus, in the KSUP "Imeni Kutuzov" of the Kalinkovichi district at the MTF "Davydovichi" no studies of feed were carried out for suitability for feeding and there was no complete zootechnical analysis. On this farm, most of the cows had lameness of their limbs; no work was done to trim the hoof horn and trim the hooves. As a result, over 9 months , livestock mortality on this farm increased by 1.6 times, and the average MILK yield per cow decreased.
