2022: System Implementation
At the end of May 2022, Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin signed a decree approving the creation of a Research and Production Center to ensure the introduction of advanced scientific and technical results in agriculture. It will bring together federal scientific institutions of an agricultural profile:
- All-Russian National Research Institute of Viticulture and Winemaking "Magarach";
- May Day sugar beet breeding and experimental station;
- North Caucasus Scientific Center for Horticulture, Viticulture, Winemaking;
- Rostov Agrarian Scientific Center.
The head structure of the center will be the Kurchatov Institute. The project will develop new types, varieties and hybrids of crops, as well as create new technologies for the production and processing of agricultural products. This will speed up the development of new breeding forms and increase the food security of the country, according to the Cabinet.
The task of the center, as reported in the order signed by Mishustin, is "to create competitive breeding forms, as well as new technologies for the production and processing of agricultural products."
We hope that the new center will present its work program in the shortest possible time and attract representatives of the agro-industrial complex to this process, - said Mikhail Mishustin at a meeting with Deputy Prime Ministers on May 30, 2022. |
According to him, such cooperation will become the basis for the emergence of better new plant lines with high yields.
At the end of May 2022, First Deputy Minister of Agriculture Oksana Lut announced that Russia would be able to provide itself with its own seeds no earlier than 2024. Under the Food Security Doctrine, seed self-sufficiency must be at least 75%.
If in wheat we are doing more or less well, more than 90% we have self-sufficiency, then in a number of other crops we have rather weak positions, - said Lut.[1] |
