Since Ukraine’s independence, more than 500 villages have disappeared from its map. To prevent the extinction of the native village, its residents organized a profitable business - growing berries. Over the past few years, 200 new jobs have been created here.
The resource that is always found in rural areas is land and people. In addition to employment, the production of berries gives a big profit, says village chairman Viktor Olshevsky.
Entrepreneurs have shown by their own example that it is possible to work with land, it is not necessary to lease it. They handed out quality planting material to people for free. Agronomists have shown how to properly land, says the head of the company Triada MK Sergey Ukrainets.
