07 Jul 2025 Improving efficiency of EAEU pedigree livestock breeding discussed at All-Russian Field Day 2025 Naira Karapetyan, Director of the Eurasian Economic Commission's Agricultural Policy Department, informed about the introduction of innovative approaches to improve the efficiency of agricultural production and marketing of competitive products within the Eurasian Economic Union at the round table “Genetics. In Simple Words About Important Things” as part of the All-Russian Field Day 2025 exhibition in Volgograd Region. “The main direction at the present stage should be the joint actions of the Union countries and the Commission on large-scale introduction into the breeding and pedigree work of the methodology to predict the breeding value of farm animals on the basis of genomic analysis,” Naira Karapetyan noted. During the exhibition events, they discussed some plans for developing the pedigree livestock breeding, modern opportunities for preserving domestic selection achievements, and ways to improve the genetic potential of dairy cattle. The round table attendees exchanged information on the results of implementing the methodology for assessing the breeding value of animals, as well as considered the state and prospects for developing the market of pedigree resources within the Union. The need to apply unified approaches to the collection and accounting of genotypic and phenotypic traits of pedigree animals to assess their breeding value and increase the production of own competitive pedigree products was noted. Naira Karapetyan emphasized the importance of coordinated actions to achieve common objectives for sustainable development of livestock breeding.
04 Jul 2025 Digital technologies in agricultural sector of Union countries becoming key tool for increasing its efficiency This was stated by Goar Barseghyan, Minister in charge of Industry and Agriculture of the Eurasian Economic Commission, at the plenary session of the All-Russian Field Day 2025 "Tasks for Future Growth: Increasing the Efficiency of Russian Crop Production" on July 4 in Volgograd. "The agriculture of the Eurasian Economic Union countries is on the threshold of qualitative transformations. Transition of the agricultural market to a digital model is one of the instruments for accelerated growth of agricultural production. This is the direction in which the efforts of the EEC and national governments are focused," Goar Barseghyan noted. The meeting discussed issues of increasing efficiency in crop production, including through modern digital solutions: unmanned technologies, digital monitoring and robotic applications. The event was attended by Oksana Lut, Minister of Agriculture of the Russian Federation, and Yury Gorlov, Minister of Agriculture and Food of the Republic of Belarus. Within the framework of the business program Goar Barseghyan held a working meeting with Oksana Lut. It considered relevant matters of trade and economic cooperation between the EAEU States in the field of the agriculture. The two sides noted the need to deepen integration processes and ensure sustainable development of the industry, discussing the implementation of the Eurasian Economic Path Declaration on Developing the Economic Processes within the EAEU until 2030 and for the period until 2045 in the field of agriculture. An agreement was reached to concentrate joint efforts on preparing proposals for launching a financial support mechanism for cooperation projects in the agricultural sector. "Implementation of joint cooperation projects in agriculture will contribute to increased output, technological improvement, boosting interstate trade and economic ties, and mutual investments," the EEC Minister mentioned Goar Barseghyan emphasized the importance of coordinated actions to achieve common goals regarding sustainable development of agriculture and regulation of the common agricultural market within the EAEU. The EEC Minister also took part in the official opening and tour of the exhibition "All-Russian Field Day 2025", where she had a look at modern agricultural machinery and equipment.                 
26 Jun 2025 Gohar Barseghyan, "EEC is ready to support specific projects on robot production" The introduction in the Eurasian Economic Union countries of industrial robots and robotic systems designed for the automation of technological and business processes was discussed on June 26 in Minsk at the EEF 2025 round table "Application of Robotic Systems as a Driver for Competitiveness of Industrial Enterprises of the EAEU Member States" with the participation of Gohar Barseghyan, Minister in charge of Industry and Agriculture of the Eurasian Economic Commission. "Currently, the leading countries of the world are developing and implementing national strategies for introducing industrial and service robots and robotic systems in various economic sectors. The issues of automation and robotic applications in technological processes are especially topical for industry and agriculture, where significant professional resources are required," Gohar Barseghyan stressed. It is known that the leading nations of the world have a robotic application ratio of over 100 or even 1,000 industrial robots per 10,000 workers. On the initiative of businesses and government agencies of the EAEU countries, the Robotics Eurasian technology platform is being created in the Union, and the Industrial Robotics interstate program is being developed. The task is to achieve mass introduction of efficient industrial robots and robotic systems in industry over the next five years. For this purpose, it is practical to ensure smooth interaction between sectoral associations, research institutions and industrial enterprises of the Eurasian Five countries, to proceed to the implementation of specific investment projects in robotics. "Given the relevance of the topic, the Commission, within the framework of the current financial mechanism, is ready to support specific projects for serial production of industrial and service robots and the corresponding modernization of enterprises. We are already working on finding required cooperation projects," summarized Gohar Barseghyan.
26 Jun 2025 Promising Areas of Cooperation in Nuclear Technologies Discussed at EEF 2025 in Minsk On June 26 in Minsk the 4th Eurasian Economic Forum hosted a round table "Development of Nuclear Technologies within the Main Directions of Industrial Cooperation in the EAEU until 2030: Prospects for Cooperative Interaction of the EAEU Member States". It was attended by Gohar Barseghyan, Minister in charge of Industry and Agriculture of the Eurasian Economic Commission. The event invited interest from the heads of government agencies and organizations, and representatives of academic circles responsible for developing nuclear technologies in the Eurasian Economic Union countries and Uzbekistan. The EEC Minister encouraged an active use of the Commission's existing instruments for promoting industrial cooperation, such as Eurasian technology platforms and the mechanism of financial support for industrial cooperation. "The creation of the Eurasian technology platform in the field of nuclear and radiation engineering will serve as an additional incentive to develop cooperation between key organizations of the industry and will allow converging the interests of government agencies, business and science within the Union," Gohar Barseghyan noted. The round table participants talked about the main competencies and achievements of the Union countries and the EAEU Observer State Uzbekistan in the field of nuclear medicine, as well as about the development of nuclear technologies in industry. A wide range of issues was touched upon: from the innovative production of radiopharmaceuticals to the implementation of several joint initiatives in the nuclear field, including the Russian-Kyrgyz project to establish a nuclear medicine center in Kyrgyzstan. State Corporation Rosatom presented a project to build a multipurpose research reactor MBIR, which is important for the development of scientific cooperation between the Union states. The event participants expressed their intention to raise the level of economic and research and technology dialogue at the supranational level, to implement applied joint projects in the field of nuclear technologies and to exchange innovative developments: from medicine to equipment for NPPs.
