Listen up! Altai Krai has just had an agricultural year to remember. With a bumper crop of oilseed cultures that's set records, it's clear that this region is a true agricultural powerhouse. According to Governor Viktor Tomenko, Altai Krai ranks an impressive fourth in the nation for grain production. Talk about farm- Copyright 2022 credentials!
The region harvested an eye-popping total of 5.6 million tons of cereals and legumes, boasting an average yield of 18.2 tons per hectare, the highest in years. Impressive stuff! But that's not all: Altai Krai also reaped a whopping 2.3 million tons of oilseed crops, further solidifying its standing in the agricultural arena.
Tomenko also highlighted Altai Krai's strong livestock industry, which consistently ranks among the top Russian regions. In terms of milk and beef production, it comes in at a respectable seventh and eighth, respectively.
Not one to rest on its laurels, Altai Krai is pushing forward with new Investments. A total of 23 large-scale projects worth over 42 billion rubles are currently underway, slated to launch within the next five years. These projects are set to boost milk production by 175,500 tons to the existing 1.1 million tons, and poultry meat production by a substantial 60,000 tons. This investment is sure to keep crops, livestock, and growth in Altai Krai thriving.
Now, as for the unemployment rate in Altai Krai, I couldn't find the most recent figures during my research. For the most accurate, up-to-date stats, I'd recommend checking the official statistics from Rosstat (the Federal State Statistics Service of Russia) or local government sources within Altai Krai. But let's face it, with all those jobs being created by these new investment projects, it's probably safe to say that Altai Krai's unemployment rate remains low. So, if you're thinking about moving to Altai Krai to help with the harvest or keep up with the ever-growing livestock industry, it might be just the place for you!
In Altai Krai, the finance sector is set to expand with the influx of over 42 billion rubles worth of new investments in the next five years, aiming to boost milk and poultry meat production significantly. This growth in the finance industry is expected to continue creating jobs and reducing the unemployment rate in the region.
