The Stavropol State Agrarian University hosted an educational forum “Smart route. Agrotechnologies of the Future”, organized by the Russian Society “Knowledge” and the Russian Agricultural Bank. Young Stavropol residents took part in the agrotechnological forum for the first time and met with experienced mentors to learn about the main trends and innovations in agriculture, as well as the prospects for the professional development of young professionals in the agro-industrial complex.

The program of the forum, organized as part of the Smart Route federal educational project, is dedicated to digitalization in the industry, the launch of new agrotech projects, and employment opportunities at agribusiness enterprises.

Rosselkhozbank experts spoke about the opportunities provided by the agro-industrial complex to young people who are inspired to choose a life path and realize their talents in the field of agriculture.

The route dedicated to the agro-industrial complex also passes through Volgograd, Astrakhan, Elista and Maykop. It is the Southern Federal District and the North Caucasus Federal District that are covered, since these regions have great potential for the development of agriculture and are interested in enterprising young professionals.
