"Schumachers" on tractors and "Queen of the Plow": the Russian championship in plowing was held in Ufa. Vi open championship of russia in plowing takes place in the republic of bashkortostan

The VI Russian Plowing Championship was held in the Ufa region. Farmers from 30 regions of Russia took part in the competition. Before the start of the competition, the latest agricultural equipment was presented: more than 50 enterprises brought their machines and units to the championship. All cars could be tested, and there were a lot of people willing to take a test drive.

Russia is a member of the World Arable Movement. The World Plowing Championships are organized by the World Plowing Organization, founded in 1952. In addition to Russia, it includes 32 countries.

Continuation

One of the most notable machines was the "giant" tractor with a capacity of 400 Horse power... Its uniqueness is a modern sowing complex, which simultaneously performs several types of soil cultivation.

The winner of the competition was Andrey Shal, a mechanic from the Ryazan region, who won the right to represent the country at the European Championship in 2018. The owner of the "Golden Plow" will drive away in a premium car "UAZ-Pickup". But first things first.

Test drive of new equipment and "Tractor Show"

Despite the fact that June was rainy in the republic, the weather did not interfere with the competition. “Every year we hold competitions, the weather has never failed. 2017 was no exception,” the organizers said.

The "Tractor Show" competition for mastery of management was spectacular. "The feeling is as if you are participating in races, only instead of a car - a tractor, and instead of" Schumachers "- ordinary villagers", - the participant of this tournament Gulia Isyandavletova shared with reporters. She said that from start to finish it is necessary to overcome about 150 meters as quickly as possible, but at the same time carry the cargo attached to the car safely. In spite of simple terms, the zigzag distance does not lend itself to everyone. "Basically, the need for speed on bends brings down", - notes Isyandavletova.

Nikolay Pichkalev from the Perm Territory showed the best result at the "Tractor Show", having won the ATV.

A girl from Bashkiria became the "Queen of the Plow"

According to him, the referees take into account the depth of the furrow, its straightness, the cleanliness of the plow exit. There are 14 evaluation parameters in total. Most time consuming and required element is the plowing of the "wedge". "All participants were on equal terms. They were given Agromash-85 TK tractors equipped with double-body reversible plows," Arsenyan explained.

It was he who evaluated one of the "stars" of the past competition - a girl-mechanic Aliya Yakupova, who won the championship in the category "Queen of the Plow". Her competitors were two more representatives of the fair sex, who were slightly behind. “Well, let it not be women's work, but I like it,” Yakupova admitted to TASS. “I graduated from the mechanical faculty at the Bashkir State Agrarian University.

Due to participation in the championship, Yakupova missed the graduation ceremony at her university. However, having learned about her good reason, the rector of the university personally came to present the bachelor's degree to the pupil of the sponsored alma mater. In addition, the "Queen of the Plow" received a walk-behind tractor from the organizers.

The winner of the championship could become a chef

But the winner of the Russian Plowing Championship, Andrei Shal, was planning to start his career in a completely different field. "I studied to be a cook, but then I made a choice and became a machine operator," he told reporters, holding a gold cup in his hands.

To the question of how he managed to bypass the rivals, the winner answered briefly: "I screwed up less." But he immediately admitted that he did not even expect to enter the top five. “After all, the soil was damp after heavy rains, it was not for sports plowing. But, apparently, I was not the only one who had flaws,” he concluded.

The silver medalist of the competition Vadim Zaretskikh from Udmurtia made a mistake in assessing the soil - two-time champion Russia for plowing. “It was not enough that the earth was damp, it was sticking, so I still couldn’t adjust the plow at will,” the mechanic, who is participating in the tournament for the fifth time, revealed his shortcomings.

Awards were also held in other nominations. Ildar Ishikayev from Bashkiria, who comes to the championship for the sixth time, was awarded a diploma "For the will to win". A participant from the Tver region, 18-year-old Vladimir Zuev, became the "junior of the championship". First in the open competition - John Stephen Whelan from Ireland.

"The level of training and work experience of the participants is different: these are machine operators with 20 years of experience and yesterday's graduates of agricultural universities. But for all plowmen this is good workout before the European and World Championships, which will be held in Russia in 2018 and 2020, "said the director of Rosagroleasing Valery Nazarov.

Plowed like a tractor

During the breaks of the main championship program great attention viewers were attracted by the show of the strong team led by the four-time winner of the tournament "Most the strong man Russia "Elbrus Nigmatullin.

The guys from his team took the Belarus tractor in tow. The athletes, working in pairs, tied one end of the cable to the tractor, and the other tied to themselves. The spectators were delighted that with such ease the athletes moved the almost four-ton car.

Also for the visitors of the championship there was an exhibition of cows, sheep and poultry, a children's playground was opened, a fair was organized where it was possible to taste and buy organic products. Musical groups and popular performers from Bashkiria performed at the festive concert.

* From the history of the competition

It all started with a competition between the two counties of Ireland. Now these are important competitions that bring together the best plowmen from all over the world. The first plowing competition took place on 16 February 1931 in Ireland among the counties of Wexford and Kildare. The news that the two counties had chosen whose plowmen were the best spread throughout Ireland. V next year it was decided to hold the same competition among all counties in the country. For this, at the end of 1931, the National Arable Association (NPA) was created in Ireland.

One of the ideologists of the plowing competition is the Irishman JJ Bergin, the co-founder and first director of the NPA, who came up with such a form of competition and its rules.

In 1952, the World Arable Organization (WPO) was created and Bergin was named vice president.

The first World Competitions were held in Canada in 1953. Since then, world championships have been held annually. From year to year, the plowing championships became more and more ambitious. Today it is a real holiday in an open field with a tent shopping camp, entertainment, music and dancing, culinary shows, animal exhibitions, and celebrity performances. Fashion shows were often held during the plowing championships.

In 1954, as part of the second world championship in Ireland, the first women's plowing championship was held. Women and girls could take part in it without age restrictions. The winner received the title of "Queen of the Plow".
Today, the World Arable Organization includes more than 30 countries, including Russia, USA, Australia, Canada, South Africa, New Zealand, as well as the countries of the European Arable Federation.

In 2016, the largest World Plowing Championship was held in York (Great Britain). He was visited by record number viewers - 283 thousand people.

One of the most notable machines was the "giant" tractor with 400 horsepower. Its uniqueness is a modern sowing complex, which simultaneously performs several types of soil cultivation.

Test Drive new technology and "Tractor Show"

Despite the fact that June was rainy in the republic, the weather did not interfere with the competition. “Every year we hold competitions, the weather has never failed. 2017 was no exception,” the organizers said.

The "Tractor Show" competition for mastery of management was spectacular. "The feeling is as if you are participating in races, only instead of a car - a tractor, and instead of" Schumachers "- ordinary villagers", - the participant of this tournament Gulia Isyandavletova shared with reporters. She said that from start to finish it is necessary to overcome about 150 meters as quickly as possible, but at the same time carry the cargo attached to the car safely. Despite the simple conditions, the zigzag distance is not amenable to everyone. "Basically, the need for speed on bends brings down", - notes Isyandavletova.

Nikolay Pichkalev from the Perm Territory showed the best result at the "Tractor Show", having won the ATV.

A girl from Bashkiria became the "Queen of the Plow"

The participants of the competition also had to work hard to cultivate the land on an area of 100 x 24 meters. Precisely painstaking - for this task each competitor was given exactly 3 hours. Their actions were observed by impartial judges armed with a ruler. "This is for measuring the depth of plowing, - the assistant judge Norik Arsenyan explained to the agency. - Its optimal value is 16-21 centimeters."
According to him, the referees take into account the depth of the furrow, its straightness, the cleanliness of the plow exit. There are 14 evaluation parameters in total. The most time-consuming and obligatory element is plowing the "wedge". "All participants were on equal terms. They were given Agromash-85 TK tractors equipped with double-body reversible plows," Arsenyan explained.

Before leaving the cab of her tractor, she carefully folded a whole set of household tools into her backpack. “If the equipment went out of order, I would fix it. I understand this, I was taught at the university,” the 22-year-old machine operator admired with her talents.
Due to participation in the championship, Yakupova missed the graduation ceremony at her university. However, having learned about her good reason, the rector of the university personally came to present the bachelor's degree to the pupil of the sponsored alma mater. In addition, the "Queen of the Plow" received a walk-behind tractor from the organizers.

The winner of the championship could become a chef

In assessing the soil, the silver medalist of the competition Vadim Zaretskikh from Udmurtia, two-time champion of Russia in plowing, was mistaken. “It was not enough that the earth was damp, it was sticking, so I still couldn’t adjust the plow at will,” the mechanic, who is participating in the tournament for the fifth time, revealed his shortcomings.

"The level of training and work experience of the participants is different: these are machine operators with 20 years of experience and yesterday's graduates of agricultural universities. But for all plowmen this is a good training session before the European and World Championships, which will be held in Russia in 2018 and 2020," the director emphasized.
