In Ukraine they could not even dream of this! – Crimean Tatar agrarian
In five years since joining Russia, agricultural businesses have felt the support of the state and have reached new levels of production. This was reported in a TVC report, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
The winemakers are happy with what is happening - in five years the area under vineyards has increased fivefold, and with it the harvest.
“Last year we made 63 varieties. 63 types of wine from our varieties that grow here in Crimea. We are on a quest to find those wines that are particularly suitable for our region, and at the same time highly rated by wine critics around the world... Russia has provided a huge market. People who understand wine have already been prepared in many ways. The second is a sharp rise in viticulture due to very large subsidies, which reach 80% of costs. Equipment leasing – 3%. In the Ukrainian period it was 15-17%,” says winemaker Valery Zakharin.
The Crimean Tatars do not feel the “repression” that Kiev propaganda talks about. Enver Bekirov from the Bakhchisarai region grows peaches in his garden. In recent years, he has managed to increase the planting area and plant new, later varieties of peach.
“A bunch of programs have appeared that did not exist in Ukraine. For example, there is support for small businesses, they provide lifts, people buy tractors. Who takes the seedlings - who needs what. They took advantage of maternal capital when they built a house with their wife. There is already something, something has been drawn...
People are coming, the time of their arrival has simply changed. Previously, they came in May-June, there were a lot of tourists. Now, for some reason, they prefer August, September, October,” the farmer shares.
His mother Zera Bekirova is also pleased with what is happening: “Look at the roads we are building. This did not happen. And now we have it, we can see right away that we are improving. They give subsidies until retirement, which is very important. If you need something, you contact them, they help.”
