It constantly demonstrates growth. Last year, Kirov livestock breeders received almost 860 thousand tons of milk.
The sowing campaign is coming to an end in the region. Spring crops have been sown on about 300 thousand hectares (more than 84% of the area). Dmitry Patrushev drew attention to the fact that farmers must be provided with all the necessary resources to carry out field work.
The meeting also discussed issues of ecology and nature conservation. The Deputy Prime Minister noted that the Kirov Region is rich in forest resources and issues related to forest management are strategic for the socio-economic development of the region.
Alexander Sokolov spoke about the development of the waste management system in the Kirov Region. By 2030, the region plans to create 10 solid municipal waste management infrastructure facilities. The most significant project for the region is the construction of the Central waste processing complex in the Slobodskoy District. The enterprise will become one of the elements of the smart waste collection system, its sorting and processing into raw materials for further production.
The meeting summed up the results of the implementation of the national project “Ecology” in the region. In the Kirov region, six unauthorized dumps were eliminated, measures were taken to preserve forests and improve the system of handling solid municipal waste. Almost 3 billion rubles were allocated from the federal budget for these purposes.
Within the framework of the new national project “Environmental Well-being”, which was launched this year, work in these areas will continue.
