The head of state arrived at a field of Agrokombinat Zhdanovichi. Here, the president received a gift — a symbolic sheaf marking the threshing of 2 million tonnes of grain in Minsk Oblast. However, Aleksandr Lukashenko emphasized that there should be no stopping there.
«With an eye on three million,» he said accepting the gift.
Among the leaders is Pavel Shutilo, who works at the Kukhchitsy agricultural enterprise in Kletsk District. In early August, he became the first in Belarus to thresh 4,000 tonnes of grain, and has since surpassed the 5,000-tonne mark. This impressive result was achieved on a harvester manufactured by Gomselmash.
The harvester operator from Kletsk District regularly achieves high harvest results on Belarusian-made machinery. In 2024, Pavel Shutilo threshed 3,200 tonnes of grain, and in 2025, he surpassed 8,400 tonnes, becoming one of the main heroes of the harvest.
The head of state has previously recognized the harvester operator’s achievements. At the second meeting of the 7th Belarusian People’s Congress, Aleksandr Lukashenko called Pavel Shutilo a hero. «There is a hero sitting here — a young man. He threshed over eight thousand tonnes!» the president said at the time. The entire hall applauded the harvester operator, who was among the participants of the congress.
Vitaly Kishko, who works at the same farm hauling the harvest, has also achieved high results. During this year’s harvest campaign, he has already transported over 6,100 tonnes of grain, legumes, and rapeseed, breaking his own previous records. Last year, Vitaly Kishko transported over 4,600 tonnes of crops, and in 2024, over 4,200 tonnes.
Another employee of Kukhchitsy, Andrei Alekseichik, transported 7,700 tonnes of grain last year. This year, he is participating in the harvest as the specialist responsible for organizing the campaign.
