Greenhouse vegetable production in Kuban grew by almost a third

The Krasnodar Region has grown over 17,000 tonnes of greenhouse vegetables since the start of the year, up 4.1 thousand tonnes from 2020. As a whole the harvest following the results of the current year can make 115 thousand tons.

According to the administration, the region's greenhouses currently produce such a volume of vegetables, which is enough both for local residents and for the millions of tourists who come to Kuban for holidays or medical treatment. Apart from that, vegetables are also supplied to other regions.

The Kuban is now among Russia's top-5 regions for growing vegetables in protected areas.

Altogether, there are ten large greenhouse complexes, with a total area of almost 240 hectares, operating in the Krasnodar Region. They mainly grow tomatoes and cucumbers.

Last year the output of greenhouse vegetables in the Kuban increased by about 20% to 110 thousand tons.
