Agricultural producers in Russia’s Far East will gather in Ussuriysk on September 18-19 for the annual Field Day event, where 10 companies and 3 research institutions will present 67 corn hybrids and 50 soybean varieties alongside modern agrotechnologies. This premier agricultural showcase comes as Primorsky Krai strengthens its position as a key player in Russia’s Far East farming sector.
What’s New in Crop Development
The demonstration plots will feature:
- High-yield corn hybrids adapted to the region’s climatic conditions
- Disease-resistant soybean varieties optimized for export markets
- Integrated crop protection systems combining innovative pesticides and fertilizers
Regional Governor Oleg Kozhemyako emphasized the government’s commitment to agricultural modernization, noting recent successes in:
✔ Expanding vegetable and rice production
✔ Renewing farm machinery fleets (regional subsidies cover 30-50% of equipment costs)
✔ Boosting soybean exports (Primorsky Krai accounts for 18% of Russia’s soybean production)
Why This Matters for Farmers
- Yield Potential: New hybrids demonstrate 15-20% higher productivity than standard varieties
- Climate Adaptation: Specially developed varieties withstand the region’s unpredictable monsoon rains
- Economic Viability: Modern crop protection systems reduce input costs by up to 25%
Beyond Seeds: Full Agricultural Showcase
The event will also highlight:
🔹 Precision farming equipment
🔹 Drone-based crop monitoring systems
🔹 Soil health management solutions
Shaping the Future of Far East Agriculture
The Ussuriysk Field Day represents more than just a product exhibition—it’s a critical platform for:
- Knowledge exchange between researchers and practitioners
- Adoption of climate-smart technologies
- Strengthening regional food security
As Primorsky Krai continues to modernize its agricultural sector, events like this ensure farmers have access to the tools needed for sustainable productivity growth.
