The Ingush authorities have decided to restore apple orchards that were planted in 2002 and remained abandoned for 10 years, a representative of the government of the republic said today.
"Apple orchards in the Troitskoye settlement, located in the Sunzha District, were planted on an area of 200 hectares. More than half of them are in an abandoned state due to lack of proper care and cannot be recovered,'' Interfax-South cites the interlocutor as saying.
