Tons of berries are exported. How a Volyn municipality has turned unkempt lands into a berry cluster

A larger part of the Prylisnenska municipality territory is covered with forests. That is why it is difficult to grow major crops there but the territory is perfect for berry production. Prior to decentralization, the municipality lands had been unkempt for a long time. However, currently a berry cluster is developing there, being a key development strategy trend, developed within the U-LEAD with Europe Programme.

Deputy head of the Prylisnenska municipality Oleksiy Hnatyuk describes the way to success, having been covered by the municipality, as well as future projects the municipality is working over.
