The country's economy, as well as the health of the population, depends on agricultural products. The better the quality, the stronger the nation. Therefore, the work of agricultural workers is important and in demand. This professional holiday is dedicated to the people, thanks to whose activities the population eats quality products.
When is it celebrated?
Agricultural Workers' Day is celebrated annually on the third Sunday of November. In 2019, the celebrations take place on November 17th. In Ukraine, the date was established by Decree of President L.M. Kravchuk No. 428/93 of October 7, 1993. In Belarus, the event was formalized by Decree of the head of state A. Lukashenko No. 454 “On the establishment of a holiday - the Day of Agricultural Workers and processing industry agro-industrial complex" dated November 10, 1995 (repeated by Decree No. 157 "On public holidays, holidays And memorable dates in the Republic of Belarus from March 26, 1998).
Who's coping
The holiday is celebrated by grain growers, machine operators, livestock breeders and all those related to agriculture, agricultural enterprises, food industry, processing and storage of agricultural raw materials and so on.
History of the holiday
This event began to be celebrated during the existence of the Soviet Union. November 1, 1988, by Decree of the Presidium of the USSR Armed Forces No. 9724-XI “On amendments to the legislation of the USSR on holidays and memorable days» two professional holidays dedicated to land reclamation workers and agricultural workers were combined into one and a single day of celebration was established.
In 1993, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, many countries abolished or moved this date, but in some countries, including Ukraine and Belarus, the tradition remained unchanged.
About the profession
Agriculture brings together representatives of many specialties. They all love to work on the land, put their soul and strength into getting the harvest, are not afraid of physically hard work, and follow centuries-old traditions.
Agriculture in Ukraine is dominated by farming, and in Belarus - livestock farming.
Belarus covers 100% of its needs for meat, milk, eggs, almost 100% for potatoes and vegetables and, therefore, is in 1st place in these indicators. Despite the huge amount of cultivated land and the growth of livestock farming, only 9.7% of the population is employed in this field of activity in the country. But this allows it to be one of the 5 largest exporters of dairy products.
In Belarus for collection vegetable crops(beets, carrots), as in Soviet times, once a year they resort to the help of schoolchildren.
In colloquial speech, Belarusians are called bulbash (bulba - potato), due to the fact that potatoes are a symbol of this state.
In 2012, an independent tasting competition “Product of the Year” was held. Based on the results of the work of the tasting commission of the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation, the company of the Republic of Belarus JV Spartak OJSC became the winner of the Grand Prix among confectionery products.
In Belarusian agriculture there is no private ownership of land; everything belongs to the state.
Ukraine is one of the leaders in chicken exports, and is also beginning to increase growth rates in pork exports.
The Agricultural Workers' Day holiday is celebrated in Russia annually on the second Sunday of October. It is far from a secret for every person that a daily slice of bread and a glass of milk are available to us thanks to the tireless work of agricultural workers. We will congratulate these workers, who never know tiredness or days off, on the professional holiday “Day of Agricultural and Processing Industry Workers” on October 14, 2018.
Russia has always been famous for its agriculture. One hundred years ago, before the 1917 revolution, Russian Empire was largely an agricultural state that fed the whole of Europe with bread.
Postcard congratulations on Agriculture Day 2017
The Bolsheviks' experiments with organizing agriculture led to the fact that in Soviet times our country already purchased grain abroad. Fortunately, in modern Russia Having moved away from Soviet excesses, agriculture began to regain its previous positions, and our country, through the efforts of agricultural workers, again became a major exporter of grain, the first in the world in exporting wheat. Grain exports replenish the country's budget by billions of dollars annually.
Story
During the existence of the USSR, there were two holidays for workers in the agricultural and processing industries. With changes in legislation, in order to show how important agricultural activities are for each of us, the government of the Russian Federation signed a decree in 1999 establishing a single professional holiday.
The beginning of October was chosen as the day of celebration - the time when all large-scale field work ends and preparations for the winter period begin.
Agriculture has always been a leading component of the economy of most countries. Many progressive countries are investing enormous capital in improving their agriculture.
Agricultural Worker's Day
The agricultural industry is an incredibly important part of the Russian economy; its activities account for a third of the country’s GDP, and approximately half of the Russians’ budget is spent on the food basket.
Russian agriculture has gone through a difficult path in its development - these include numerous land reforms, collectivization, the NEP, and the transition to a market economy. Due to ill-conceived reorganization of agriculture recent years Its infrastructure was greatly damaged, in most regions the farms collapsed, and many fertile lands were abandoned.
In Russia, the holiday was established by Decree of the President of the Russian Federation No. 679 of May 31, 1999 “On the Day of Agricultural and Processing Industry Workers” and is celebrated annually on the second Sunday of October.
Traditions
IN different regions In Russia, workers in agriculture and the processing industry celebrate it in their own way. They hold festive events, a concert on Agriculture Day, this is an indispensable event in the holiday scenario, many remember their successes and achievements. They hold fairs and sales. Managers are preparing congratulations on Agriculture Day to their employees.

Holiday "Day of Agricultural and Processing Industry Workers" celebrated in Russia annually on the second Sunday of October. In 2017, "Day of Agricultural and Processing Industry Workers" is celebrated on October 8.
Holiday Day of Workers of Agriculture and Processing Industry was established by Presidential Decree Russian Federation dated 05/31/1999
On this holiday, not only workers in agriculture and the processing industry are honored, but also all those who work on the land from dawn to dusk, without days off or holidays, grow bread and vegetables, supply milk, meat and other food products to our tables. .
The Day of Agricultural and Processing Industry Workers is a holiday of field and farm workers, managers and specialists of agricultural enterprises, farms, agricultural scientists, rural intelligentsia, food and processing industry workers.
With their dedicated and conscientious work, workers in agriculture and the processing industry provide the population of Russia with high-quality food products.
Stabilizing and increasing the production of basic types of food based on the introduction of resource-saving technologies, expanding the range of products is the key to the successful development of Russian agriculture.
Agriculture is one of the backbone sectors of the economy of any country. Regardless of soil and climatic conditions, even the most developed industrial countries invest very large amounts of money in the development of domestic agriculture. The available land in the Russian Federation represents a huge productive force given by nature. “Labor is the father of wealth, and land is its mother” - this postulate of the economic doctrine of the physiocrats was also included in political economy. In agriculture, the earth and plants, like a huge chemical and biological machine, work using the energy of the Sun.
The crisis in agriculture and the decline in its production immediately deals a heavy blow to the entire economy, since it leads to the loss of a huge amount of free natural resources, but these losses have to be paid when importing food.
Most of Russia's territory lies in the zone of risky agriculture. Over large areas, yields vary greatly depending on weather conditions. You have to expend maximum effort to achieve good performance harvest.
Agriculture is an industry that is strategically important for our country. A lot of problems have accumulated here that have not been solved for decades. Today in agriculture there are a number of systemic problems that hinder the further development of the industry. High production costs and an outdated technological base have made the products of domestic agriculture, fisheries, food and processing industries limitedly competitive in relation to food products, which are now saturated in the world market.
To solve existing problems, it is necessary to implement a whole range of measures in the near future. The federal law “On the Development of Agriculture” was adopted, which provides for the adoption and implementation of a state program for the development of agriculture and regulation of markets for agricultural products, raw materials and food.
The state program for the development of agriculture is a document that defines the goals and main directions of development of agriculture and regulation of these markets for a medium-term five-year period, financial support and mechanisms for the implementation of developed activities.
Agro-industrial complex and its significance
Agricultural products all over the world are not just a commodity, they are a strategic commodity, one of the foundations of the normal existence and progress of society. Therefore, support for agro-industrial production is the most important task economic policy states.
The agro-industrial complex is the most important integral part the Russian economy, where products vital to society are produced and enormous economic potential is concentrated. It employs almost 30% of workers in the sphere of material production, uses a fifth of production assets, and creates about a third of gross national income. The development of the agro-industrial complex decisively determines the state of the entire national economic potential, the level of food security of the state and the socio-economic situation in society.
The most important link in the agro-industrial complex is agriculture. It occupies a special place not only in the agro-industrial complex, but throughout national economy. Almost 75% of the population's demand for consumer goods is covered by agriculture. At the same time, food expenses account for about half of the expenses in the budget of the average Russian family.
The state of agricultural production determines the food security of the state.
Agricultural production is associated with biological and natural processes, is directly dependent on climatic factors, the involvement in production of humans, land, plants, animals, fixed and working capital, diverse in composition and purpose, and is a very complex form economic activity.
Moreover, regardless of nationality, level of development, forms of ownership, methods of its organization, agriculture has its own specific, unique features that significantly distinguish it from all other sectors of the national economic complex. These features are most significantly manifested in a market economy with free competition and insufficient state regulation of ongoing processes. As a consequence of this, in most countries of the world the need for state regulation of agriculture has not only been recognized, but also specific legislative acts have been adopted, on the basis of which effective directions and programs have been developed to ensure the sustainable development of not only agricultural production sectors, but also all areas of activity and living conditions rural population.

Kostycheva Nikolay Byshov, heads of municipalities, managers and employees of leading agricultural enterprises in the region, students, industry veterans.
Governor Nikolai Lyubimov congratulated those gathered on their professional holiday. He noted: “The 2017 harvest season in the region is almost over. Its results once again confirmed that the agro-industrial complex is a very promising area for the Ryazan region. A record has been collected for the entire recent history grain harvest - 2 million 126 thousand tons. With such a result, Ryazan farmers completed the harvesting campaign only twice: in 1973 and in 1987.” According to Nikolai Lyubimov, this year the region has good indicators for threshing oilseeds, it is planned to receive about 130 thousand tons, and the gross harvest of potatoes and vegetables is expected to be at a good level. The region's livestock farmers have also done a great job and achieved sustainable growth in milk production. Thus, as of October 1 of this year, 263.4 thousand tons of milk were produced in the region, which is 5.2% more than in the same period last year. 38.6 thousand tons of meat were obtained, which is almost 2.5% more than the result of 2016.
“In order to maintain momentum and ensure development, it is necessary to continue the diversification of agriculture,” Nikolai Lyubimov emphasized. – Our region belongs and has always belonged to the zone of risky agriculture. In these conditions, especially in years like 2017, when difficult weather conditions test our farmers’ strength, multidisciplinary farms have advantages.” As the Governor noted, modern challenges have become an incentive for agricultural enterprises to work more actively, search for new markets, work to increase profitability, produce higher quality products, and expand their range. “Practice shows that Ryazan products are in demand and successfully compete with analogues produced in other regions and abroad,” said Nikolai Lyubimov. – This year, Ryazan processors plan to sell products worth more than 43 billion rubles. Of course, such indicators would be impossible without systemic government support.”
According to the Governor, in 2017, 2.7 billion rubles were allocated for the development of the region’s agro-industrial complex, and the amount is expected to be no less next year. In the country as a whole in 2018, on the initiative of the President of the Russian Federation V.V. Putin will allocate 20 billion rubles to support the agro-industrial complex. in addition to the budgeted 222 billion rubles. “This money will be used to subsidize lending rates and tariffs for grain transportation across railway,” noted Nikolai Lyubimov. “This will help avoid a fall in grain prices, which is extremely important for our region, which has received record grain harvests.”
The head of the region emphasized that the Government of the Ryazan region will continue to pay the most serious attention to the agro-industrial complex. Work will actively continue to consistently solve existing problems, develop the industry, support import-substituting industries, and attract investment in the agro-industrial complex. Among the main tasks is to provide maximum possible support to industry enterprises in the development and implementation of modern technologies, in search of new markets, formation of modern infrastructure in rural areas, creation of a young personnel reserve for the agricultural sector.

Congratulations from Alexander Tkachev on the Day of Agricultural and Processing Industry Workers
Dear friends!
Congratulations on our professional holiday - Agricultural and Processing Industry Worker's Day!
Thanks to your creative and tireless work, agriculture not only maintains sustainable production growth, but also serves as the basis for the well-being and prosperity of Russia.
Today, agriculture has become the embodiment of the country's success: stable growth and confidence in the future. We have again set a series of records in the agricultural industry. The harvest is nearing completion. A lot of work has been done. Despite the weather conditions, this year it will be possible to harvest 128 million tons of grain - this is an absolute record! Such high volumes harvested fully meet the growing needs of our country, allow for high-quality feed procurement for livestock farming, and also allow us to consolidate Russia’s status as a world leader in wheat exports.
Excellent results have been achieved for barley, oilseeds, buckwheat, greenhouse vegetables and other crops. Last year, Russia came out on top in the world in terms of sugar production from sugar beets, and based on the results of the current season good harvest beets will allow us to count on maintaining our leadership position.
The country's farmers have managed to achieve serious success in livestock farming. Today we have almost completely supplied the domestic market with our own meat and are now consolidating the achieved successes.
The country's food security has been ensured, and high-quality and affordable food products have appeared on store shelves. Prospects for further growth in key niches - grain, meat, milk, greenhouse vegetables and fruits. I am confident that with these products we will not only feed our country, but also allow it to become a major food exporter in the world.
The development of agricultural production has inspired new life and in rural areas: income from the sale of agricultural products returns to the village and stimulates development rural settlements. Houses are being built for rural residents, gas and water are provided, schools, kindergartens, medical institutions, clubs, and sports grounds are opened. As a result, the issue of the quality and living conditions of rural residents today comes to the fore in domestic policy states.
Behind all this is the work of thousands of teams: at agricultural enterprises, farms and cooperatives, regional management bodies of the agro-industrial complex, our subordinate institutions, research institutes and agricultural universities.
I am confident that the consolidation of efforts at the federal and regional levels, local governments, agricultural business, the farmers' movement to solve a common problem will make our village a modern, comfortable and promising place to live and work.
Dear workers of the agro-industrial complex, thank you for your high professionalism, love for the Motherland embodied in work, and daily service in the rural field. I am confident that your hard work and your perseverance in overcoming all adversities will become a solid foundation for achieving new breakthrough results.
I wish you all good health, good spirits, implementation of your plans, prosperity, happiness and love!
Congratulations from the Governor of the Ryazan Region Nikolai Lyubimov on the Day of Agricultural and Processing Industry Workers
Dear agricultural workers of the Ryazan region! Congratulations on your professional holiday!
This year, the region's farmers, despite difficult weather conditions, showed good results. In the Ryazan region, over 2 million 100 thousand tons of grain crops will be collected during the harvesting campaign. This is a record figure in modern history regional agro-industrial complex. The farmers of the Ryazan region achieved this thanks to high professionalism, a responsible attitude to business, and the competent use of modern technologies. Our villagers have achieved high results in potatoes and oilseeds, and provided livestock with a reliable feed supply. Growth in dairy and meat livestock production is also expected by the end of the year, primarily due to increased productivity.
Workers in the agricultural industry effectively solve problems for the development of the region's agro-industrial complex, including import substitution. Food production is developing in the region, high quality which are often superior to foreign analogues. Today, the Ryazan region is fully self-sufficient in food, and our environmentally friendly agricultural products are deservedly in constant great demand in other regions of the country.

Below is some background information.
The Day of Agricultural and Processing Industry Workers in the Russian Federation, celebrated annually on the second Sunday of October, was established by decree of the President of the Russian Federation of May 31, 1999. In 2018, the date falls on October 14.
Initially, the holiday was established by decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR on August 26, 1966 and was called “All-Union Day of Agricultural Workers.” It was also celebrated on the second Sunday in October. On the third Sunday of October, “Food Industry Workers’ Day” was celebrated, established by decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR dated August 30, 1966. In 1986, these two holidays were combined into a single one - “Day of Workers in Agriculture and Processing Industry of the Agro-Industrial Complex”. It was celebrated on the third Sunday of November. In 1988, it was combined with “Reclamation Day” into a single holiday called “Day of Agricultural and Processing Industry Workers,” which was also celebrated on the third Sunday in November. In 1999, the date of the celebration was moved to the second Sunday in October, and the word “workers” was replaced in the name with “worker”.
Russia has a significant share of the planet's agricultural land - 4.5%. In the country, as throughout the world, agricultural production is the largest life-supporting sector of the national economic complex. Its condition and economic efficiency of functioning have a decisive influence on the level of food supply and well-being of the people. The agro-industrial complex (AIC) largely determines the state of the entire economy of the country, since it closely interacts with other sectors of the national economy.
The agrarian reforms carried out in the country since the early 1990s, without preliminary scientific study, which are reduced mainly to unregulated market liberalization, led to the collapse of the material and technical base of the agro-industrial complex and systemic production technologies, their primitivization, and threatened the existence of the main, non-renewable means of production - land, without which the functioning of this industry is generally impossible. Production of products in the agro-industrial complex decreased by almost half, and in the structure-forming industry - agriculture - by 40%, which limited the country's ability to provide the population with food of its own production.
Since 1999, economic growth in agriculture began, which continued until 2006. During this time, agricultural production increased by 34.4%. But since 2002, there has been a tendency for the rate of agricultural development to slow down and lag behind the rate of development of the economy as a whole.
The slowdown in economic growth in agriculture, the lack of conditions for alternative employment in rural areas, and the historically low level of development of social and engineering infrastructure have led to an aggravation of social problems sat down.
To overcome crisis phenomena and bring the agro-industrial complex to sustainable development, it was adopted in 2006 Federal law"On the development of agriculture." In pursuance of this law, the “State Program for the Development of Agriculture and Regulation of Agrarian Markets of Agricultural Products, Raw Materials and Food” for 2008-2012 was adopted in 2007, and in 2012 the State Program for 2013-2020.
Government measures aimed at stimulating agriculture have proven their effectiveness. The industry began to show growth and began to develop actively various shapes agricultural activities: not only large enterprises, but also small peasant farms.
Today, agriculture, and the agro-industrial complex in general, is one of the most dynamic sectors Russian economy. Russia has become a leading grain power and occupies a leading position in the world in wheat exports. There are positive dynamics in other areas, such as the production of pork and poultry meat, the collection of oilseeds, sugar beets, fruits, and vegetables.
The volume of Russian agricultural production in 2017 increased by 2.6% compared to 2016 (and by 20% over the past five years), and exports of agricultural products in 2017 exceeded the level of 2000 by 15 times.
Russian producers fully supply the domestic market with grain, sugar, vegetable oil, chicken meat, fish and borscht vegetables. In 2017 specific gravity domestic grain in the total volume of resources of the domestic market amounted to 99.3%, beet sugar - 94.6%, vegetable oil- 84.8%, potatoes - 97%, meat and meat products - 90.4%, milk and dairy products 82.4%, table salt 63.6%.
In 2017, Russia broke the historical record for grain harvest set in the USSR in 1978 (when 127.4 million tons were collected) and received a harvest of 134.1 million tons of grain (according to Rosstat). The wheat harvest for the first time in history amounted to 85.8 million tons. Grain exports from Russia in the 2016-2017 agricultural year (from July 1, 2016 to June 30, 2017) amounted to a record 35.474 million tons, including 27.075 million tons of wheat. In 2017, the country increased its exports of wheat and meslin (a mixture of wheat and rye) by 30.4% compared to 2016, to 33.026 million tons. In 2016-2017, Russia became an exporter of sugar and increased export volumes of vegetable oil, pork, and poultry.
Due to weather conditions, grain yields in 2018 are projected to be approximately 20% lower than in 2017.
The development of agricultural production has breathed new life into rural areas: income from the sale of agricultural products returns to the countryside and stimulates the development of rural settlements. Houses are being built for rural residents, gas and water are provided, schools, kindergartens, medical institutions, clubs, and sports grounds are opened.
