More than 110 thousand hectares have been harvested - 77% of the mowed. This is twice as high as compared to the previous level of the year," said Lilia Gulinskaya.

According to Lilia Gulinskaya, the grasses have grown well this year, and now the main task is to clean up in a quality and timely manner. "The quality of forage grasses is monitored by the veterinary service, they take samples and check them. They monitor the quality of clotting, the introduction of preservatives - they completely monitor the technology.
