By the end of 2018, the forecast crop yield in the new greenhouse complex should have amounted to 92 tons of tomatoes and 606 tons of cucumbers.

The annual production volume after full capacity has been achieved by December 2020 was supposed to reach about 4 thousand tons of tomatoes and 6 thousand tons of cucumbers.
