Despite being on maternity leave, a young mother from the Nookat district is actively engaged in farming and raising bulls. This was reported to Turmush by a correspondent.

Aychurok Sadyrbek kyzy, a native of the village of Jiyde, was born in 1999 and currently lives in the village of Kairagach. While on maternity leave, she is raising three children and simultaneously developing her farming activities.

Having graduated from Osh State University with a degree in "Teacher of the Russian Language and Literature," Aychurok asserts that life offers many opportunities, and her interest led her to the field of farming.

She began her journey in this area by helping her husband. Gradually, her passion grew, and over the past five years, she has seriously immersed herself in farming, focusing on livestock over the last six months.

The decision to engage in this business was driven by the desire to stay close to her children. The family decided not to go abroad but to develop their farm on their native land. "We chose the direction of raising bulls. Our herd currently consists of 20 heads. Caring for the bulls requires less effort and provides a more stable income compared to other animals. We planned ahead and built the necessary facilities for their maintenance, paying attention to all aspects—from watering to feeding," Aychurok shares.

There is a common belief that farming is hard work for women. However, Aychurok refutes this stereotype with her own example: "I am on maternity leave, raising children, and successfully managing a farm. It is real," she asserts.

The family raises bulls for meat production, setting prices based on the condition of the animals. "Every labor should be valued," she believes.

Aychurok's main goal is to produce quality and clean meat for consumers.

The farming life is full of unexpected situations. She recalls a funny incident: "Once, when we were expecting guests, I was cooking and suddenly heard noise from the barn. Two bulls broke free from their ties. In a hurry, I didn't have time to change and ran to catch them. When the guests arrived, I greeted them looking like that. It was very awkward, but now, looking back, I smile," she recounts.

In her free time, Aychurok takes care of household chores, looks after her children, and writes poetry—this is her favorite hobby.

Her ambitions for the future are to become one of the leading women farmers in Kyrgyzstan. "I want to develop my business, benefit people, and inspire other women," adds Aychurok Sadyrbek kyzy.
