Emergency mode will be established in the Omsk region in the near future due to the late sowing campaign. As the head of the region Alexander Burkov said, according to the data for May 28, the spring sowing was carried out by only 40% of the area. Agrarians can not work in the field because of the waterlogging of the soil and incessant rainfall.
"I talked with the heads of the districts this morning, the topic of the sowing was discussed, it is difficult for us, they sowed only 40% of the area, the reason was poor weather conditions, heavy rainfall. Work can not be done. We are considering the possibility of establishing an emergency regime in some areas," Burkov said.
In this case, agrarians can lose not only the crop, but also increase debts. Agrarians will have to return subsidies from the federal budget. "If we do not succeed in sowing on time, then federal subsidies will have to be returned, so we are considering the possibility of establishing an emergency regime in the coming days," Burkov said.
The agrarians of the northern districts are in the most difficult situation, since there it is impossible to work in the field at all. There is a possibility of bankruptcies of agricultural producers.
