September 5, Omsk was the venue for the 2nd regional Rural Youth Forum, which was attended by more than 400 young specialists of agricultural enterprises, students of the Omsk State Agrarian University (member of Omsky Biocluster) and students of the agro-technological college. In addition to the plenary part, which provided for a meeting with the head of Omsk region Alexander Burkov and the Minister of Agriculture and Food of Omsk region Maxim Chekusov, the work of the sections was organized when young people could visit the enterprises most successful in their field.
SIBAGROCOMPLEX Group (member of Omsky Biocluster, co-founder of the Interregional Center for Agro Industry Engineering) has become one of the sites of the forum (Innovative Livestock Section). SIBAGROCOMPLEX Group has been successfully developing and mastering new directions for more than 20 years, starting from the production of equipment for livestock companies, processing of grain and finishing with engineering services in the field of dairy cattle genetics and breeding. The company has organized an excursion around the exhibition grounds and production facilities of the enterprise for students and specialists of the industry, demonstrated modern equipment and techniques used to improve the efficiency of reproduction of the herd and artificial insemination.
Anatoly Shulakov, Director General of SIBAGROCOMPLEX Group:
"At present, the issue of updating employees in agriculture and improving the quality of education in agrarian universities and colleges is extremely relevant throughout the Siberian Federal District. We work in six Siberian regions and have an objective picture. At the same time, even if yesterday's graduate with great desire is going to work in the profession, at the first stage he experiences the greatest stress, since the knowledge obtained at the university or college is often just not enough to work in real conditions. The employer has exaggerated expectations and demands for a young employee that, in the absence of moral and professional support from an experienced mentor, is most often the reason for the escape of young specialists from the countryside. The reason is precisely the factors listed, and not in social conditions, to which we are constantly appealing. Therefore, the team of highly qualified specialists of SIBAGROCOMPLEX offers a program for the adaptation of young employees, which provides for additional training and development of special skills, information and consulting support. We have a great experience of personal communication with both managers and specialists of agricultural companies from all over Siberia. As a result, we have the opportunity to help the employer form staff from the moment when students are enrolled in universities and colleges. On the other hand, we can provide the new employee with moral support for the existing team, mentoring support for professional issues, an optimal psychological microclimate, which facilitates adaptation and the fastest and most effective entry of a young specialist into the production process.
