President of Turkmenistan Serdar BERDIMUHAMEDOV: The Harvest Festival Expresses the State’s High Reverence for the Conscientious Work of Farmers

The Country Festively Celebrates the Harvest Festival On November 10, the country held celebrations on the occasion of the Harvest Festival, which symbolises the abundance of the Turkmen land.

Food Abundance: Components of Success

An abundance of fresh vegetables and fruit, a wide variety of bakeries and confectioneries, dairy and meat products – it is a given today illustrating the quality of life of the people. At the same time, it is an illustration of the level of the development of the domestic agro-industrial sector. Currently, Turkmenistan not only meets the domestic demands in a wide variety of food products, but also exports them to neighbouring and remote countries. Entrepreneurs make a significant contribution to developing the agro-industrial sector and ensuring an abundant food supply. Today, we can rightfully say that an abundant food supply is an outcome of the large-scale reforms launched by the National Leader of the Turkmen people, Chairman of the Halk Maslahaty of Turkmenistan Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov and implemented in the period of the Revival of the New Era of the Powerful State under the leadership of our esteemed President Serdar Berdimuhamedov.

A Miracle Tree from the Sumbar Valley

The visiting card of mountainous Magtymguly etrap in the Balkan velayat is the Sumbar and Chendir gorges, immersed in greenery, where various fruit trees grow, including the pomegranate. This tree holds the palm: in gardens, it is rightfully considered a symbol of the beauty and fertility of the generous Turkmen land. The pomegranate is not only a fruit tree, but also a decorative one; it adds bright colours to the streets in the centre of Magtymguly etrap and the villages where masters of their craft live and work. A gardener-tenant from the Sumbar farmers’ association Bibihajar Hojageldiyeva has been growing fruit trees for several years. The experienced gardener received the Medals “Watana bolan söýgüsi üçin” and “Gaýrat” for her modest work, which inspires her to work with renewed energy.
