"Our village" is the name of the new project of Delta Holding, with which the company wants to initiate the development of agriculture in underdeveloped areas and the reconstruction of villages in Serbia. The villages of Dubočane and Mala Jasikova, in the vicinity of Zaječar, were selected for the start of the project, and the president of Delta Holding, Miroslav Mišković, and the mayor of Zaječar, Boško Ničić, announced this decision to their residents. Delta will help the inhabitants of two selected villages to significantly improve the level of agricultural production, as well as social and cultural life in their place and bring them to the level of villages in developed parts of Europe. Experts of Delta Agrar will advise farmers in the protection and cultivation of fruit, the selection of fruit varieties and breeds of animals and their proper breeding, as well as all other tasks on which the success of agricultural production depends. In order to make the project sustainable, Delta will guarantee the purchase of manufactured goods, because placement has been one of the biggest problems for producers in this area until now. The project also plans to improve cultural and social life in these villages by donating funds for the reconstruction of institutions that are important for the life of the entire village, such as a school, cultural center, health center, and organizing cultural and entertainment events. The goal is to make life in the villages of Dubočane and Mala Jasikova better as soon as possible, for the current residents, and for those who left these villages in search of a better future. The long-term goal of the project is for these settlements to reach the level of modern European villages and the return of part of the displaced population, especially young individuals and families. The project "Our village" was launched with the full support of the local community. The city of Zaječar not only encourages local residents to participate in this action, but also hints at its involvement and the possibility of spreading the action to other villages in this part of eastern Serbia.
