What are the prospects and opportunities for young specialists in the agro-industrial complex (AIC)? How to gain authority among senior colleagues? How broad are the opportunities for career growth? These and other issues were discussed during an open dialogue as part of the 1st stage of the regional forum for young AIC specialists.

The speakers included Vladimir Yurgievich, Aide to the President of the Republic of Belarus – Inspector for the Vitebsk Region, Sergey Levkovich, First Deputy Chairman of the Vitebsk Regional Executive Committee, Igor Moroz, Chairman of the Orsha District Executive Committee, as well as heads of structural divisions of the regional executive committee, the industry trade union, and the regional branch of ASB "Belarusbank".

– It is no coincidence that the forum started on the eve of the Day of Agricultural and Processing Industry Workers. It is important to show and talk about the significance of professions in the AIC. The Head of our State, when presenting state awards to the best representatives of this sector, emphasized that this industry receives special attention, – stressed Vladimir Yurgievich. – It is truly heroic. Food security is a priority of state policy. Today, the issue of retaining young personnel in agriculture and creating appropriate conditions for this is acute. It is important that, as young specialists take their first steps in their profession, they feel the care and support of the state at every stage and replicate the advanced experience gained in their respective locations.

Sergey Levkovich noted that the main goal of the event is to strengthen the human resources potential of the Vitebsk region in the AIC.

– And these are primarily young specialists. It is necessary to do everything to ensure that they continue to work in agriculture, gain experience, and implement new ideas. This is a large-scale effort, it will be continued and systematized. We must not lose a single specialist, – said the First Deputy Chairman.
