Hasyl Bayramy, or the Harvest Festival, is celebrated in Turkmenistan every second Sunday of November. This ancient folk festival marks the end of the agricultural season and the cotton harvesting period. The festivities include exhibitions of agricultural products and modern farming technology, alongside various events such as contests, competitions, and free concerts. A highlight of the celebration is the traditional racing of Akhal-Teke horses, which are a national emblem of Turkmenistan, known for their endurance and distinctive metallic sheen. The festival culminates in a solemn award ceremony honoring distinguished farmers, agricultural experts, and scientists, reflecting the importance of agriculture in Turkmen culture.
