The grain harvesting campaign started in Turkmenistan on June 4. Grain growers from the Ahal, Lebap and Mary velayats have started mowing. Farmers from the Balkan and Dashoguz velayats will join them on June 11.

According to a centuries-old good tradition, the elders offered a prayer to the Almighty for a successful harvest, well-being and prosperity of the land and the entire Turkmen people. Having mowed the first full ears of grain with the words "May the harvest of your grain be abundant!", the elders handed over the symbolic sheaves to the combine operators.

This year, Turkmen grain growers will have to harvest 1 million 400 thousand tons of grain from 690 thousand hectares allocated for winter crops, including 400 thousand tons in the Ahal velayat, 345 thousand tons in Mary, 310 thousand tons in Lebap, 265 thousand tons in Dashoguz and 80 thousand tons in Balkan. The agricultural lands were sown with high-yielding varieties of food wheat.

On the occasion of the start of the mowing, seminars were held in the velayats, where a wide range of issues on the organized conduct of the harvest, the clear and coordinated work of the grain harvesting conveyor were discussed.

The 2025 harvest will involve grain harvesters and modern high-performance machinery. Their crews are made up of experienced machine operators.

During the harvest period, mobile repair and mechanical teams will service grain growers around the clock, supplying them with everything they need - fuel and lubricants, spare parts. Wheat will be delivered to receiving points, barns and elevators by trucks. The laboratories of the Main State Service "Türkmenstandartlary" are also fully prepared, and their specialists will use the latest equipment to quickly determine the quality of grain coming from the fields.

To mark the current season, exhibitions were organized at the edge of the wheat fields - in the places where the celebrations on the occasion of the beginning of the harvest - where various agricultural products, bakery products, modern agricultural machinery were presented. Performances by singers, dance and folklore groups from the velayats also took place here, the State News Agency of Turkmenistan reports.
