All news in the section
At the Lenexpo site you can now buy almost everything - from a Russian samovar to clothes from Mongolia. There is a folk fair there. Leading manufacturers and suppliers brought their agricultural products. The geography of the exhibition is only expanding every year. Alexander Burenin saw and tried all the most interesting things.
Life doesn't seem like honey to bees. No one sits still. They were brought from Tatarstan in a special house to show the direct producers of the product. Each of the 5 cells contains 8-10 thousand individuals. Some are released to fly over the harbor, but they are not afraid of losing them.
Alexander Kuznetsov, fair participant:“They are by smell, by the sun, by the direction of the sun. They have their place. They always come back. Now they’ll fly and come back.”
Honey is the most widely represented. If the Ministry of Health usually warns about problems with inscriptions, then honey literally convinces of its usefulness. It will cure everything: liver, bronchi, lungs and even increase hemoglobin. On weekends at such fairs, people line up and no one takes their word for it. Entire containers are used exclusively for tasting.
Alexander Burenin, correspondent:"According to the laws street trading You can try on the products, try them on, this is welcome. Bargaining is also appropriate; some homemade price tags even call for this. But there is one subtle point: the seller, one might say, puts his soul into the process. Therefore, if you try, communicate, spend a lot of time at the counter, but in the end leave empty-handed, people say it causes resentment.”
The line of food products continues with cold snacks. Mushrooms from all over the country from those forests that are usually called dense. But sellers assure that even good white can be ruined at the salting stage, but here this is impossible - they do everything according to grandma’s recipes.
Antonina Semenova:“The mushroom is all barrel, no vinegar. Just salt and mushrooms and that’s it. This is a great snack. All you need is a honeycomb, a mushroom and everything is great.”
The geography of such fairs is constantly growing. This year the event is international.
Olga Ostroverkhaya, head of the consumer events department of the exhibition center:“We have all of Russia, and not only Russia. There are also international participants from neighboring countries: Belarusian potatoes, Uzbek souvenirs, Georgian ceramics. And even Mongolian clothes.”
Exhibitors say that Lately City dwellers are willing to introduce elements of rural life in megacities. Samovars are selling with a bang. True, they mostly take electric ones. And no one puts boots on top anymore - it’s too labor-intensive. But felt boots made from handmade sheep wool do not require a samovar. There are all sizes, even with designs for children.
Today the international agro-industrial exhibition and fair “Agrorus” opens in St. Petersburg. It will be the anniversary, the twenty-fifth in a row, and for the first time in a quarter of a century it will change its location.

The move of AgroRus from its home base - from Lenexpo to the Expoforum convention and exhibition center on Petersburg Highway - has been discussed for at least the last six years. Every year, at the closing of the next fair, some high-ranking official said: “See you next year in a new place!”
But the next year came, and it turned out that the meeting place could not be changed: Gavan, Lenexpo. For more than twenty years, everyone has grown to this site: the agricultural business community, farmers, gardeners, and, of course, city residents.
The average person went to the fair for fresh food, honey, and live fish. I bought seedlings and seedlings for garden beds and gardening tools. Amateur gardeners were invited to educational seminars and master classes.
Will it be possible to launch the same mass action on the territory of the prim Expoforum Convention and Exhibition Center?.. Will the average person move to the outskirts of St. Petersburg “for bread and circuses”?.. These questions hung in the air several years ago. The answers to them will be given by the current “Agrorus”.
Although in private conversations the organizers of the exhibition-fair clearly hint that the average person at ExpoForum will only be a passing person. The townspeople, they say, have already been taken care of by the “old site” - “Lenexpo”: a large agricultural fair was held there from August 20 to 28. Not Agrorus, of course, but an almost exact copy of it. True, without exhibition accompaniment. There were rows of honey there, and they sold seedlings, and they held master classes for gardeners, and they sang songs and dances.
The center of the action at Expoforum will be numerous business events.
Today the participants of Agrorusi-2016 will gather at the conference “ Agriculture- driver Russian economy" Today will be " round table» « Innovative technologies And technical means in agro-industrial production to solve the problems of import substitution.” A business contact center is also opening for suppliers and purchasers of agricultural products. And today industry competitions start in which organizations - innovators in the agricultural sector, manufacturers of modern agricultural machinery, farms, family livestock farms.
Here it would be useful to remember that initially, at birth, “Agrorus” had a different name - the exhibition-fair “Russian Farmer”. And to this day, the Ministry of Agriculture emphasizes the target orientation of the St. Petersburg agro-industrial forum: “During its operation, the exhibition becomes a center for the development of small and medium-sized rural businesses.” Even despite the fact that large agribusiness sets the tone in Agrorus.
In previous years, every day at Agrorus was themed. This tradition continues today. With some adjustments. For example, to the surprise of many, Farmer's Day disappeared from the program.
It is not yet clear whether the fair component of Agrorusi-2016 will be similar to Razgulyaevo at Lenexpo. But it is known that a “Regional Products Fair” will be held here, which will be attended by many traders who have appeared in the Harbor.
So, according to the upcoming chronology:
* Today, August 30th. Day of the official opening of the exhibition-fair “Agrorus-2016”.
* Tomorrow, August 31st. Day of St. Petersburg and Leningrad region.
* September 1, Thursday. Fish day.
* September 2. Gardener's Day.
* September 3. Day of Folk Arts and Crafts.
* 4 September. Fair of regional products.
Several important points that need to be paid attention to by those who will gather at AgroRus at Expoforum these days. If you are not a specialist in the agro-industrial complex and related industries, then it is better not to run to the fair today and tomorrow. The first two days of the exhibition are open only to specialists!
Exhibitions will close on September 2.
Unlike the fair at Lenexpo, entry to the new fairground will be free. And you can get to the scene “for nothing” - from the Moskovskaya metro station on a free shuttle bus.
