The Lankaran State Center for Agrarian Development of the Ministry of Agriculture opened on October 15.

The center will provide services to citizens registered in the city of Lankaran.

The Lankaran Regional Seed Certification Center, which covers the Lankaran, Masalli, Lerik, Yardimli and Astara regions, registers the seed crops and seedlings in these areas, unifies and determines the purity of seed varieties and seedlings of agricultural plants, establishes contamination with their diseases and pests, as well as organizes their certification, provides conclusions for certification of individuals and legal entities wishing to engage in the production of seeds and seedlings.

The goal of creating state agrarian development centers is to organize the management of local departments of the Ministry of Agriculture from a single center, strengthen work with farmers, conduct educational work related to the use of electronic services and innovative technologies.

The organization of the centers creates a number of advantages in the provision of services in the agricultural sector. Among them, it is possible to note the application of the “single window” principle, the increase in transparency, and the improvement of the mechanism for establishing relations with farmers.

The work carried out in recent years in this area in Lankaran, which is one of the main agricultural regions of our country, is of great importance. From this point of view, the activity of the Lankaran State Center for Agrarian Development is of great interest. Here, the Ministry of Agriculture and the structures subordinate to it provide a total of 63 types of services in crop production, livestock and technical control. The center employs 58 people.

The Lankaran regional agrochemical laboratory was established to improve the quality of services provided to landowners and entrepreneurs, equipped with modern instruments and facilities.
