The spring campaign for planting forest crops has been successfully completed in Kostanay region — large-scale work is being carried out as part of the implementation of the order of the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan to improve the environmental situation and implement the national program "Taza Kazakhstan". This year, 14.4 million seedlings of coniferous and deciduous trees were planted on an area of ​​over 2 thousand hectares. The greening of the region was the result of the coordinated work of 592 people, 100 tractors and 75 forest planting machines.

Forest planting is carried out annually as part of the Comprehensive Plan for Forest Reproduction and Afforestation for 2021-2027. Spring is traditionally considered the most suitable time for this work — thanks to the warm weather and sufficient soil moisture, seedlings take root well. According to experts, the conditions of the current season were especially favorable, which allows us to expect a high percentage of rooting.

A significant event of the spring stage was the environmental campaign "All-Kazakhstan Forest Planting Day", which was attended by forestry employees, volunteers, schoolchildren and representatives of regional enterprises. Many trees were planted through joint efforts - each seedling became a contribution to the ecologically safe future of the region. "Forest restoration is not only a task for specialists, but also a common cause for all residents of the region. Each planted seedling is a contribution to improving the environment, preserving the natural balance and caring for future generations," the regional department of natural resources noted.
