This year Ukraine plans to harvest a record yield. Every effort and the best machinery of NIBULON are directed to achievement of high results. During rush period “Bashtans’ka” branch celebrates its 17th anniversary.
“To harvest the highest yield is our main task”, thinks Iryna Pohydko, a chief accountant, “Appropriate goals are set before each employee, and everyone works a hundred percent to achieve them. High pace of work only increases our enthusiasm”.
Under the direction of Iryna Pohydko there work 4 accountants at the branch. They are young people mostly. Iryna graduated from Mykolayiv State Agrarian University not long ago, and “Bashtans’ka” branch became her first workplace, “Some of my fellow students work at other branches and in the central office of the company. When we finished studying, NIBULON became the only serious employer that believed in recent graduates and provided us with a job without requiring previous work experience”.
Yevgen Zadnipryanskyy, a chief agronomist of the branch, tells that only 5% of his fellow students got a job by speciality. NIBULON gives the possibility not only to use knowledge obtained at the university, but also to see other regions of Ukraine. This very thing made Yevgen leave Cherkasy region and move to the south of Ukraine. He is not sorry about his decision,
“I appreciate my job very much and the work we do together. Grain, grown by us, is delivered to other countries, including countries where hunger dominates. Due to our work, starving people receive qualitative Ukrainian grain grown on the fields of our branches”.
Yevgen Zadnipryanskyy calls his staff family, “We spend a lot of time together: we work, share our experience. Coming from Cherkasy region as a recent graduate, I was accepted by the team, I felt support immediately”.
“NIBULON is respected in Bashtanka region”, tells Mykola Lukin, a mechanical engineer. He was born here and due to NIBULON’s activities, after studies he came back to his native region to work by speciality, “I have been working here for three years. The Agrarian University provided me with good theoretical knowledge, but in practice you start to realize meaning of your profession. Mykola does not plan to stop studying, and in the near future he is going to obtain new agricultural knowledge.
“Our team is friendly”, tells Mykola Roseev, the branch director, “I respect my employees for their diligence and purposefulness, non-indifference to problems of other people”.
In “Bashtans’ka” branch Mykola Roseev has been working since 1999 and as director for 8 years. Today the branch is one of the best in the region in grain harvesting. The village community, where the branch is located, and village councils which land is leased by the company appreciate cooperation with such an owner.
During its operation in Bashtanka district NIBULON allocates funds to local schools, kindergartens, and medical institutions for repair, change of windows, purchase of office equipment and furniture, toys, New Year’s gifts. Last year NIBULON implemented new initiative – signing of social partnership agreements with village councils which land the company leases for cultivation of agricultural products. An agreement amount is determined according to the volume of leased land. Thus, in Bashtanka region NIBULON signed agreements with three village councils. Last year’s experience of such cooperation with the village communities showed itself to good advantage, and NIBULON continues it this year.
