Under the leadership of President Serdar Berdimuhamedov, the comprehensive work carried out in the agricultural sector on the initiative of the National Leader of the Turkmen people, Chairman of the Halk Maslahaty of Turkmenistan, Hero Arkadag, is being brought to a qualitatively new level. These measures contribute to the successful solution of important tasks to ensure food abundance in the country and open up great opportunities for the further development of the specialised sphere.

Currently, the role of the private sector in the agro-industrial complex is increasing. Joint-stock companies, dayhan and private farms are provided with land plots for growing agricultural crops from the Special Land Fund, created for the purpose of further implementation of reforms in the specialised sphere, efficient use of land and water resources, and the widespread involvement of private producers in agriculture.

As is known, at the meeting of the Cabinet of Ministers held on the 29^th of May of this year, President Serdar Berdimuhamedov blessed the beginning of the grain harvest.

According to the relevant Resolution of the President of Turkmenistan, tenant farmers, joint-stock companies, peasant and private farms that have received land plots from the Special Agricultural Land Fund, having grown a rich harvest of wheat, make a worthy contribution to replenishing the Motherland's harman.

The harvested crop is transported from grain receiving enterprises to warehouses and elevators.

Program activities are successfully carried out to strengthen food abundance, further improve reforms in the agricultural sector, organise modern working methods and widely attract private producers to the industry. Special land funds for growing agricultural crops are regularly created for them, benefits and opportunities are provided for the purchase of high-performance equipment and units from well-known world companies, modern equipment for enterprises, the widespread introduction of advanced experience in production, and financial support for farmers from the state is of great importance.

Large-scale work is being carried out to address issues of efficient use of arable land and its irrigation, increasing crop yields and soil fertility, developing virgin lands, introducing advanced technologies, developing agricultural science, seed production and selection.

Significant investment funds are directed to technical equipment and modernisation of structures and service areas of the agricultural complex, construction of elevators, enterprises for processing agricultural products, plants for the production of mineral fertilisers, water management facilities. All this creates great opportunities for the productive work of the non-governmental sector.

Thanks to the support of the President of Turkmenistan, the private sector in the agricultural sector during the wheat harvest season effectively uses modern grain harvesters from such well-known companies as John Deere and CLASS. The equipment used around the clock creates the preconditions for accelerated collection of a generous harvest without losses.

It should be noted that in Turkmenistan, relying on international practice, great importance is attached to selection. Scientific research conducted in the new historical period in the field of selection, seed production, consistent improvement of experience and professional level of scientists have a positive impact on the development of the agricultural sector.

This season, the country's agricultural lands were sown with high-yielding varieties of white wheat «Serdar», «Arkadag» and «Pyragy». The breeding of new varieties of winter wheat at the Research Institute of Grain Growing of the Ministry of Agriculture of Turkmenistan indicates the successful implementation of the instructions of the head of state to improve selection and seed production work, and develop the industry on a scientific basis.

In this way, the high grain yields grown this year by domestic agricultural producers are an indicator that the tasks set by President Serdar Berdimuhamedov to ensure food abundance in the country are being successfully implemented.
