Turkmen President Serdar Berdimuhamedov emphasised the importance of increasing state purchase prices for cotton and grain during a working trip to the Arkadag City on Thursday.
The event has a dual objective of stimulating farmers and preparing proposals pertinent to their needs, the official Turkmen media reports.
As reported, the purchase price increase aims to foster greater engagement among farmers by linking their efforts to the outcomes they achieve. It is expected to increase the quantity of products they produce. Ultimately, such developments are anticipated to expand the country's economic potential.
