“TAS Agro” to allocate 22 thou hectares for winter wheat in 2025 harvest

15 September , 2024  

TAS Agro intends to allocate 22 thou hectares for winter wheat, the company’s press service reported on its Facebook page.
“Thanks to the updated modern agricultural machinery, it is possible to ensure an efficient sowing process, combining it with the simultaneous application of granular fertilizers,” the agricultural holding said.
TAS Agro noted that in 2024 it completely abandoned traditional plowing and started using Mini-till technology. This allows to preserve the soil structure, reduce erosion and increase its fertility, which will eventually have a positive impact on yields, the agricultural holding explained.
At the same time, TAS-Agro continues harvesting soybeans on 16 thousand hectares.
“Harvesting started in the best possible time. Teams of specialists are using modern methods and equipment to ensure high harvesting efficiency and minimize losses,” the agricultural holding added.
TAS Group was founded in 1998. Its business interests include the financial sector (banking and insurance segments) and pharmacy, as well as industry, real estate, and venture capital projects.
Before the war, TAS Agro Group cultivated 83 thousand hectares in Vinnytsia, Kyiv, Kirovohrad, Chernihiv, Mykolaiv, Sumy, Kherson, and Dnipro regions, where it grows soybeans, sunflower, rapeseed, wheat, barley, and corn. In addition, the agricultural holding is engaged in dairy farming (up to 5.5 thousand heads of cattle) and owns six elevators with a one-time storage capacity of 250 thousand tons.
The founder of TAS is Sergey Tigipko.
