The noise of combine harvesters can be heard again in the fields of "Avangard".
Here the "relay" of the grain harvest has reached the corn harvest.
This crop, which is one of the main components of compound feed for all types of livestock kept at the agribusiness, has been grown here for more than ten years. This year it was sown on 750 hectares. On Monday, when we were familiarizing ourselves with the progress of harvesting in the "Tan" division, 160 hectares had already been harvested. Three combines were working in the next 200-hectare field located near the village of Alkeevo. One after another the hoppers of the "steppe ships," operated by Firzar Khattapov, Ilgizar Sungatov and Ramil Sadykov, were being filled. Trucks taking the harvested grain to the Burundukovsky elevator and the Kaibitsky grain depot were also right there at the edge of the field. Filling their beds, covering them with tarpaulins, they would set off quickly. The conveyor did not stop.
"In the morning, as soon as it becomes possible, we head out to the field. While it's dry, we manage to cover up to 20 hectares. The crop is good; I send about 30 hoppers a day," says machine operator with 30 years' experience Firzar Khattapov.
According to the agribusiness's chief agronomist Khamit Gimatdinov, 1,876 tonnes of corn have been taken away to date. Four combines are used for threshing. One threshes in "Kommun." Together they perform work on an average of 60–70 hectares a day.
"Depending on the length of the day and weather conditions, the time the combines spend in the field decreases each day. Besides, we thresh the corn as it ripens. Thus, we plan to complete harvesting in 20–25 days," he said.
This year the weather has been favorable for corn. Average yields so far are 68–70 centners per hectare. There is even a field where this figure reaches 90 centners.
"This hybrid, capable of yielding 100 centners per hectare, was sown for the first time this year. The yield was 89 centners per hectare," says Khamit Gimatdinov.
In previous years the agribusiness sometimes harvested 80 centners per hectare. Regardless of yield, the agribusiness does not plan to reduce the area under cultivation of this nutrient-rich crop. Fields where it was grown are immediately worked. First they perform discing, then plowing. Since the soil is heavily depleted after corn, in the coming year it will mainly be left under clean fallow, worked all summer, and winter crops will be sown in the autumn.
Winter wheat is itself a good predecessor for corn. At the agribusiness corn is grown not only for grain but also for silage. The area under silage corn amounted to 854 hectares. A total of 18,878 tonnes of succulent feed were harvested.
