Greetings to participants and guests of Dazhynki 2026 harvest festival in Dzerzhinsk

To participants and guests of the Minsk Oblast festival Dazhynki 2026 in the town of Dzerzhinsk

Esteemed Minsk Oblast grain growers!

From the bottom of my heart I congratulate you on finishing the harvesting campaign and on hosting the regional festival and fair Dazhynki 2026.

Today is a significant day for all Minsk Oblast agrarians, who carefully preserve the best traditions of domestic arable farming and skillfully master modern technologies. The big joint success of field workers is this year’s “round loaf” in excess of 2.5 million tonnes. Minsk Oblast’s excellent result stems from record-high volumes in the districts. In half of them the harvest exceeded 100,000 tonnes.

I offer special words of gratitude to agronomists, harvester operators, drivers, managers of all levels, and other specialists who have demonstrated the highest professionalism. It is symbolical that in the Year of the Belarusian Woman representatives of the fair sex joined the ranks of the harvester operators, each of whom has gathered in over 1,000 tonnes of grain.

I am convinced that as the main breadbasket of the republic Minsk Oblast will continue delighting us with a rich harvest, countering any vagaries of nature with diligence, perseverance, skillful organization of work, and strict compliance with technologies.

I wish the rural residents of the central region good health, happiness, and new accomplishments for the benefit of native Belarus.

Aleksandr Lukashenko
