Nina Litovka heading to work at the farm on her bicycle. She attends to the pigs. Land has been privatized and everyone got three hectares. Many sold or rented their share. Some people consolidated their holding into cooperatives. Here, land was bought up by entrepreneurs, whom the locals call "fermer" (which means farmer, but significantly, is a borrowed term and not the traditional word used to designate a farmer). Villagers said that they used to resent the fermer but now see working for him as a source of cash.
