President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko congratulated the Vitebsk region's grain growers on the "Dozhinki" harvest festival

President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko sent greetings to the participants and guests of the regional festival-fair "Dazhynki-2019" in Vitebsk.

"I sincerely congratulate you on the wonderful holiday of rural workers – "Dazhynki".

The agrarians of the Vitebsk region have confirmed their skills – despite difficult weather conditions, they have increased the yield of grain crops, worked hard in the fields, and the region has confidently surpassed the million-ton mark in threshed grain.

The warmest words of gratitude are deserved by agronomists and machine operators, service workers, engineers, farm and district managers, as well as those volunteers who, by the call of their hearts, helped in the grain fields during the harvest, not allowing a single ear or grain to be lost.

I am convinced that further adherence to technologies, labor discipline, and the pursuit of high results will help you not to stop at what has been achieved and will lead to new professional heights. May the grain ear of the northern region grow heavier year after year, may the Belarusian land become richer.

I wish everyone good health, success in work, prosperity, and great personal happiness," the greeting reads.
