Thanks to the efficient operation of dairy farms in safer regions and the transfer of animals from affected areas, it is possible to reduce the loss of industrial milk.
As a result of Russia’s massive war against Ukraine, the Ukrainian dairy industry received less than 1 million tons of milk throughout the war. On Friday, November 25, the Association of Milk Producers reported.
According to experts, the loss of industrial herds of cattle since the beginning of the Russian invasion, since February 24, has crossed the mark of 50 thousand heads of cattle.
“On the background of a reduction in the number and productivity of cattle in the frontline zones and territories with active hostilities, milk production in Ukraine for 10 months decreased by 12.4% – to 6.575 million tons. That is, the industry received less than 929.6 thousand tons of milk.. However, thanks to the efficient operation of dairy farms in safer regions and the transfer of livestock from the affected areas, it was possible to reduce the loss of industrial milk.
The association reported, referring to the data of the State Statistics Service, that during the review period, enterprises produced 2.185 million tons of milk, which is 120 thousand tons, or 5.2% less than last year. And households are more sensitive and have no opportunity for such “flexibility”, so production in this segment decreased by 15.6% – up to 4.389 million tons.
Note, according to the State Statistics Service, annual inflation in Ukraine accelerated in October. Almost all goods and services have increased in price. However, inflation is expected to slow next year.
