Gomel Region increases sunflower cultivation volumes

The Gomel Region increases the volume of sunflower cultivation. One of the experimental sites is a farm in the Rechitsa District. Last year, 30 hectares of sunflower were sown here, this year – 50 hectares. Sunflowers are a valuable melliferous plant and a support for the local apiary. After harvesting, it’s used as additional import-substituting fodder protein for animals.
