PM visits sweet cherry orchard from north Moldova district
Chisinau, 22 June /MOLDPRES/ - Prime Minister Dorin Recean, during a working visit to the northern Soldanesti district, has visited a hyper-intensive orchard of sweet cherries owned by a young entrepreneur from the capital, the government’s communication and protocol department has reported.
Entrepreneur Adrian Cavcaliuc has planted eight varieties of late sweet cherry on those 25 hectares of orchard. The investor hopes to get the first full harvest of fruits, estimated at about 200 tons of sweet cherries.
Adrian Cavcaliuc says that, starting from 2018 till present, he has managed to win more projects of financing and subsidies. He participated in all programmes in the field, including at the Organization for Entrepreneurship Development (ODA), Moldova’s Orchard or Agency of Intervention and Payments for Agriculture. The entrepreneur holds his own reservoir, used to irrigate the entire orchard, as well as a combined system of cooling with water and optical sorting of cherries – unique in Moldova. This allows him meet any requirement from EU, including as regards the products’ packing.
„I am happy to know such fruit growers as Andrei, Mihail and Vasile, who start businesses and invest in modern technologies, in order to come with qualitative products on market. These young people develop the local economy and provide jobs for residents from the region and represent an example worth being followed,’’ PM Dorin Recean said.
The harvesting will start in several days and the sweet cherries from Vadul-Rascov will reach more countries from the European Union – Italy, Poland or Spain.
Presently, Moldova has more than 4,000 hectares planted with sweet cherry trees and the areas planted with intensive orchards are increasing. In the next years, the intensive plantations will contribute to the exponential increase of the production of sweet cherries in Moldova, which presently reaches about 15,000 tons per year, Moldova being in a top 20 world exporters of sweet cherries.
