Students from the PGZ "Stefan Tsanov" - Knezha successfully completed their production practice at the MRI-Knezha

During their 01.07.2025 – 14.07.2025 10-day production practice the students from Professional High School of Agriculture ''Stefan Tsanov'' had the opportunity to learn about the main areas of research, applied and technological activities of Maize Research Institute - Knezha.

The practice went through ten thematic areas, covering key aspects of modern breeding, agricultural techniques, plant protection, seed production, biochemical analysis, technological processing and innovations in the use of corn grain. Each topic was presented in a real working environment - through experimental fields, laboratory work and applied presentations.

Throughout the whole training, the students demonstrated high activity, impressive curiousity and sustainable cognitive behaviour. They distinguished themselves with a love for learning, discipline, teamwork and a desire for professional development. They not only mastered theoretical knowledge, but also showed a mature attitude towards practical challenges, which deserves deep respect.

At the final stage of the practice, all students were awarded certificates for successful completion - in recognition of the commitment, systematic acquisition of knowledge and progress shown and achieved in practical activities.

The practice was led with scientific consistency and personal dedication by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nataliya Petrovska and Assistant Biserka Hinkina, who are sincerely grateful for the opportunity to be part of the professional growth of a new generation of agricultural specialists.
