Popis: | The Siberian agreement has been set up to unite the efforts of the 17 regions of Siberia in achieving economic growth and improving the living standards of the population. Its major challenge is that of feeding the people. The poor quality of the land, the inhospitable climate and the traditional methods of husbandry result in low yields of arable crops and animal products. The problem is aggravated by inadequate facilities for food processing and storage. However, advances in agricultural technology in the form of plant and animal improvement by breeding programmes and increased availability of fertilizers and other agrochemicals, coupled with better management, should ensure a brighter future for this area. |
