On November 13, a solemn ceremony was held in Chaussy to commemorate the Day of Agricultural Workers and the Agro-Industrial Complex Processing Industry.

The event brought together the region’s leadership, residents of Chaussy district villages, industry leaders, distinguished guests, and representatives of labor collectives.

A video showcasing the district’s agro-industrial development in 2026 was screened. Following this, regional farm managers took the stage to receive loaves of bread made from the new harvest. The main loaf was then passed to Sergei Dorozhkin, Chairman of the Chaussy District Executive Committee, amid applause.

He welcomed everyone whose collective efforts had contributed to this year’s harvest and expressed gratitude to all those who support farms, including village council chairmen and heads of organizations and enterprises.

Sergei Anatolyevich emphasized that this celebration rightfully belongs to the people whose hands feed the nation—those who grow wheat under challenging conditions, work on farms, feed livestock, and care for animals, dedicating not only their labor but also their hearts to this work.

This year, grain crops were harvested across 20,341 hectares in the region. The district’s total grain yield, including corn, was 41,978 tons, with an average productivity of 20.1 tons per hectare.

Sergei Anatolyevich extended special thanks to the workers of farms and dairy production complexes.

As of October 1, 1026, the number of cattle in the district’s agricultural organizations was 16,000, with 6,166 cows in the dairy herd. 5,072 calves were born.

Gross milk production reached 12,674 tons, equivalent to 88.8% of the 2025 level. The overall milk marketability across the district’s agricultural organizations was 86.4%.

Over the first nine months of 2026, 1,246.1 tons of cattle were produced, with an average daily weight gain during fattening and rearing of 421 grams. """

""" Livestock farming is thriving in the region. This year, four new barns have been constructed in Raduchy, Vojnile, Volkovichi, and Duzevka. A list of calf prevention facilities has been earmarked for 2026–2027, with construction funded by the regional budget. A total of 23 facilities will be built. Construction of 12 new calf pens is already underway this year, which will help increase livestock numbers and milk production in the future.
