On five acres of land here there is a garden of dwarf and semi-dwarf apple trees. Their growth is being observed by specialists from the Southwest Research Institute of livestock and crop production. Professionals and businessmen have taken a special one-week training in Turkey, organized by socio-entrepreneurial corporation named “Shymkent” in accordance with the request of the President, reported the IA “Kazakh-Zerno” with the reference to “Kazinform”.
