en.Wedoany.com Reported - In mid-July, the traditional pre-harvest mutual inspection was held in Khokholsky District, with heads and agronomists from 16 major agricultural enterprises and farms participating. The inspection results showed that winter wheat yield on some plots reached 80 centners per hectare.

According to A.N. Dedov, head of the Khokholsky District department of the Russian Agricultural Center's Voronezh Region branch, the season faced multiple challenges from the start. The prolonged spring led to about 2,000 hectares of spring crops not being sown in time, and low temperatures during early crop growth prevented herbicide application, with weeds posing a threat to the harvest. Subsequent sufficient rainfall and field management by agronomists effectively mitigated the risks, and four farms have now started harvesting early grain crops.

During the mutual inspection, participants exchanged experiences in cultivating major crops and discussed common issues and new industry challenges. Khokholsky District is an important agricultural production area in Voronezh Region, where the agricultural production index reached 105% in March 2026, with grain output playing a significant role in the region's agriculture.

As a federal budgetary institution, the Russian Agricultural Center has branches in various regions, providing technical support and seed quality testing services to agricultural producers. This field inspection activity in Khokholsky District is a routine task to assess crop conditions before harvest and guide subsequent field operations. The district's agricultural department will continue to monitor harvest progress to ensure the achievement of grain production targets.
