The farmers of Grain Alliance (Baryshevskaya Grain Company) have begun collecting soy and corn.
The company also continues to harvest sunflower, the company said. The crop yield this year reaches 3 tons / ha.
Soybean showed an average yield of 2.4 centners per year. In addition, a generous corn crop is expected at the Grain Alliance.
According to Alexander Aleksenko, an agronomist at the Slavia branch, the abnormally high air temperature that was observed during August affected the soybean yield this year.
Slavia grows soybeans on a total area of 5 thousand ha. Currently, farmers managed to collect soy from 30% of the area. This year's crop showed an average yield of 2.3 c / ha. The company grows soybean varieties of early, middle and mid-late ripeness. All were bred in Canada.
For information, Grain Alliance's core business is agricultural production. It conducts its work on the territory of Kiev, Poltava, Chernihiv and Cherkasy regions, cultivating 50 thousand hectares of land.
