Azerbaijan has very big plans related to agriculture on the liberated lands, President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev said on May 4 during the reception of Vahid Hajiyev in a video format in connection with his appointment as the special representative of the President in the Zangilan district, which is part of the East Zangazur economic region, AzVision.az reports.
"Everyone can see and knows perfectly well that food security is coming to the fore. A lot has been done in this direction in recent years. However, we are still not able to fully provide ourselves with wheat and grains as a whole. I am confident that as a result of the additional measures, dependence on imports will be significantly reduced. The main issue here is both productivity and proper use of water, as well as the correct selection of arable land in the liberated lands and provision of agro-technical services there," the head of the state added.
