A Kirov resident raises chickens under a social contract.

      With the funds received under a social contract, Konstantin Mazurin purchased incubators, a feather‑plucking machine, a trailer and other equipment, and began raising laying hens and broiler chicks. According to Konstantin, working with poultry has been familiar to him since childhood, and now his children are also involved, helping care for the farm. Incidentally, the father of a large family has eight children. Regional authorities note that large families have priority when entering into a social contract. Just this year, 405 families have already taken advantage of this form of support.
