In the Kursk region eliminated foci of dangerous weeds on the area of more than 5 thousand hectares

This decision was made due to the fact that the foci of quarantine weeds were eliminated, and for three consecutive years they were not detected in the zones. In particular, quarantine was removed from three zones for ragweed (170.88 hectares) and 11 zones for poultry (5464.17 hectares).

The department noted that such results were achieved thanks to the joint work of the Rosselkhoznadzor and economic entities, which completed a set of prescribed measures for the complete elimination of foci.

According to the law in the quarantine zone, the fight against weeds is carried out at the expense of citizens and legal entities that own or use land plots and other quarantine objects. Owners are obliged to independently conduct surveys of their territories for the presence of quarantine objects and, if they are detected, inform the Rosselkhoznadzor.
